March 27.
Beginning the complete library of the greatest science fiction hero of all time.
Volume
One will spotlight the work of Alex Raymond, legendary for some of the
finest storytelling of the 20th century. Raymond illustrated the Sunday
strips until 1944; with his clear and much-imitated style forming the
original aesthetic of the most popular and easily recognised science
fiction hero for decades to come.
Introducing Flash Gordon, Dale
Arden, Dr. Hans Zarkov, and Ming the Merciless, this volume will
catapult readers to the deadly planet Mongo.
These are the
strips that influenced George Lucas to create Star Wars, and which
illustrator Al Williamson said were "the reason I became an artist."
