Volume 2 - 1st printing.

Written by Mac Raboy and Don Moore. Art by Mac Raboy.

Continuing Dark Horse Comics' tradition of finer reprint books, this is the second volume in our archival collection of Mac Raboy's lengthy Flash Gordon run. This series marks the first time that Raboy's Flash Gordon strips have ever been collected. Beginning his comics career in 1940, Emanuel "Mac" Raboy is perhaps best known for his work on Captain Marvel, Jr. and the Green Lama in the 1940s. He graduated from a government-funded art class, was heavily influenced by Alex Raymond's style, and, in the Spring of 1948, he signed on with King Features to illustrate the "Flash Gordon" Sunday page. Following in the footsteps of his idol, Mac Raboy's run on this serial was actually longer than Raymond's. Raboy drew the strip until his death in December of 1967, and several of his early wood engravings (from his fine art days) remain in the permanent collection of New York's Metropolitan Museum.

Softcover (Horizontal Format), 12-in. x 9-in., 256 pages, B&W. Cover price $19.95.

Volume 4 - 1st printing.

Written by Mac Raboy and Don Moore. Art by Mac Raboy.

Thrill to the celestial dangers of space travel and the science fiction action of yesteryear's Flash Gordon weekly series! Ming the Merciless, the traitorous Klag, a mysterious creature known as "The Mind", and a host of villains and dangers oppose the hardy, heroic Flash in a reprint series that marks the first time that Mac Raboy's run on this acclaimed strip has ever been collected. From Alex Raymond to Reed Crandall to Al Williamson, stellar artists have long-contributed to the success of Flash Gordon, and Mac Raboy is in the same class of top talent. Beginning his comics career in 1940, Emanuel `Mac' Raboy is perhaps best known for his work on Captain Marvel, Jr. and the Green Lama in the 1940s. In the spring of 1948, he signed on with King Features to illustrate the 'Flash Gordon' Sunday page, and Mac Raboy's run on this serial was actually longer than Alex Raymond's. Join Flash, Dale, and Dr. Zarkov in these exquisitely drawn, fantastical adventures!
