Flash Gordon Quarterly #5

Robert Hack's cover for this fifth quarterly installment pulls no punches — a massive, multi-eyed purple creature with a gaping maw of jagged teeth has its tentacles wrapped around Flash Gordon himself, while a dark-haired companion struggles nearby in its clutches. Mad Cave Studios' anthology format means this oversized issue packs in stories from Marc Andreyko, Igor Lima, Jadzia Axelrod, Carola Borelli, and Kelly Williams, making "The Madness of M'nnngh" a generous showcase of cosmic pulp adventure in the grand Flash Gordon tradition.
