[[redirect:Creator/MarvelUK]]''The Knights of Pendragon'' is a comic series published by the Creator/MarvelUK imprint of Creator/MarvelComics. It's written by Creator/DanAbnett and John Tomlinson and illustrated by Gary Erskine and Creator/AndyLanning, with color by Helen Stone.

The series is set in the shared Franchise/MarvelUniverse and begins with police officer Dai Thomas (a supporting character from Marvel UK's previous ''ComicBook/CaptainBritain'' stories) entangled in a murder mystery that seems to have superhuman or supernatural involvement.

As things spiral, it becomes an environmentally aware horror story, drawing on Arthurian myths to show nature - embodied by the Green Knight - pushing back against the damage done by man.

Later issues add another complication, with the destructive Red Knight and its servants, the Bane, causing havoc across the world as it feuds with its counterpart.

The first issue was published in July 1990.

----
!!Tropes included in ''The Knights of Pendragon'':
* FisherKing: The Green Knight itself.
* KarmicDeath: The fate of those who directly anger the Green Knight. A fur poacher ends up neatly packaged with his victims' pelts, for example.
* ScaryScarecrows: A disturbing turnip-headed scarecrow is a recurring figure.
