review:
'Flash Gordon: King's Cross' by Jeff Parker with art and story by Jesse Hamm is a fun crossover title with lots of pulp characters.
When Ming the Merciless decides to claim Earth, he creates an entire continent and plans to turn humans in to animals unless he gets his way. Standing in his way are Flash Gordon, Dale Arden and Dr. Zarkov. Along to help out are Mandrake the Magician, a couple versions of The Phantom and a few surprises. There are some nice twists and turns along the way.
I enjoyed the story and the art in this one. I had read a similar title a while back and it just didn't work, but these characters in this title work pretty well. The story feels like a pulp adventure and the art has a kind of nice retro feel as well.
I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Diamond Book Distributors and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
