Susan,

Have you seen the DC comics updating "Camelot 3000"? In a dark, future environment, Morgan Le Fey returns and attempts to take over the earth, prompting Arthur to return and assemble a new group of Knights to help defeat Morgan once and for all.

It was many, many years ago, and was DC's first 'maxi-series' covering more than a trilogy, but less than a regular run. It's also been collected in a paperback graphic novel. Local comic book stores may have it, or be able to get it. Amazon has it.

 I collect King Arthur stories, and one of my favorites is "The Mists of Avalon." This retelling definitely gives a feminist slant to the story but in so doing (in my opinion) makes the original story even richer by expanding our understanding of all the characters and their possible motivations.
