Product Description:
The first of seven full-color volumes collecting the entire output of comics great Alex Raymond on his signature strip, Flash Gordon. Thanks to Raymond's unrivaled gift for gorgeous sprawling artork and rapid-fire plotting set on a world of unrivaled wonder - the mysterious planet mongo - Flash Gordon quickly became a house-hold name which still resonates in film, literature and cartooning to this day.

One of the best reprints of comic art I've seen. The pages are high quality, the images are large and the colors are amazing. The Publisher's Weekly review must have had a different version (as one of these reviews claims), because this book is amazing. If you're a fan of comic art, you won't do much better than this.
