Starred review from December 1, 2024
Gr 2 Up-Science fiction legend Flash Gordon comes to the world of children's graphic novels. Expertly written and illustrated by Baltazar, who is well known for his distinctive style, this first volume will delight readers of all ages. Football jock Flash Gordon and a scientist called Zarkov head to space and land on a world of human-animal hybrids. Villain Ming the Merciless, normally very evil, brings most of the comic relief to the book. Old favorite characters like Prince Barin and Hawkman Vultan make appearances. This new volume for a young audience offers a fresh vision that seamlessly blends with established lore. VERDICT This volume is the perfect thing to bring this iconic character back to life and popularity.
