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.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Flash Gordon
I am a fan of Flash Gordon since around 1946. The series of the 7 books is EXCELLENT, and it brought back many childhood memories. The format and quality of each book is very good.
I would not mind seeing and reading more of it in future publications.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Nice content, poor binding
The content itself is in great condition and very nice to look at, but the book itself is more of a children's book than a comic collection. It would've been great if they had decided to put it in a quality hardcover format.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Graphic SF Reader

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Classic adventure
The plots are ridiculous and the characters are thin, but that is all inconsequential. Flash Gordon is FUN.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Beautifully rendered
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.
