The illustrarion above is from Robert the Incredible Chicken, one of several comic-book adaptions of Maid Marian episodes. The books are illustrated by Paul Cemmick, who also drew the animation for the closing titles (although there is no animator's credit in the series).

How The Band Got Together, Robert The Incredible Chicken, The Whitish Knight, The Beast of Bolsover, Rabies in Love, The Worksop Egg Fairy, They Came From Outer Space, and, as one volume, Driving Ambition and Keeping Mum have all been adapted into books. Given the time of publication it is likely that these books are no longer in print; however, to aid you in your search I have supplied below the details for Robin the Incredible Chicken.
