I used to love the Disney Robin Hood! My dad made me a wooden bow when I was a kid, and i'd wander around the densely overgrown bits of the garden with it, wearing a little felt green Robin Hood hat. I think that's probably why i'm still so keen on it now!

It's not that well known an area of literature, which is surprising considering how popular it still is today! Luckily for me it also means there's potential for original work to be done on it! It does have strange bits. Like how the medieval Robin Hood started as a peasant bandit in Edward 1st's time, murdering the sheriff, robbing the church, mocking the king, and desiring only to live in his forest with his band of outlaws; and then became moved in the Renaissance to a dispossessed aristocrat, fighting against the 'false' King John and for the true King Richard, desiring only to regain his aristocratic castle and Lady Marian (who also first appears here) as part of an aristocratic romantic tradition! ...Well I find it interesting anyway!
