Jeremy Adams, Will Conrad, Lee Loughridge, and Taylor Esposito’s first Flash Gordon arc is collected in a brand new trade paperback from Mad Cave Studios.
Escape From Planet Death! collects issues #0-5 of the new Flash Gordon series and finds Flash trapped on a secret prison planet that he must escape to prevent the assassination of his true love Dale Arden.
Adams said, “I couldn’t be more excited to see Flash Gordon come back to the printed page. Will Conrad has taken the character to a whole new level with his incredible art, and the team at Mad Cave have been a joy to work with as we take this larger than life character on a quest that spans the entire universe. Hold onto your seats and get ready for the adventure of a lifetime!”
Conrad is loving the experience as well and said, “I am beyond excited with the chance to work alongside Jeremy and everyone at Mad Cave on bringing Flash Gordon back to comics. It’s like going back in time and bringing all of these beloved characters back to the present, with some new and modern tweaks, but without losing the essence of each one. Can’t avoid listening to Queen’s classic rock riffle “FLASH! AAAAAHHHHH” every time I sit to draw a panel. I believe everyone will feel the same!”
Flash Gordon: Escape From Planet Death! consists of 160 pages for a suggested retail price on $17.99.
