Author Biography
Don Moore was the writer of Flash Gordon between 1935-1967. He was previously a pulp editor. Alex Raymond is one of the most famous artists in the history of comics. He created Flash Gordon, Secret Agent X-9, Rip Kirby, and Jungle Jim. George Lucas has admitted Flash Gordon inspired Star Wars, and Raymond's work has inspired decades of writers, artist, and filmmakers.
Reviews"This lavish full-color volume impeccably presents Raymond's last three-and-a-half years on the strip." - Booklist "This was my first experience with Flash Gordon, but it has left me hungry for more. I NEED to get the other volumes in this series. And frankly, so does everyone else who works in or loves comics. This is a true masterpiece." - Comics Bulletin "Alex Raymond's work is as exciting today as it was in the 30's and 40's, or even my childhood. The pages are lovingly produced. Titan respects these pages as much as the fans and presents them as fresh and alive as if inked yesterday." - Greg Manchess
