🚀⚔️ Flash Gordon meets Lavender Jack.
Writer-artist Dan Schkade (@danschkade.bsky.social) talks with @chriscoplan.bsky.social about pulp heroes, honoring a 90-year legacy, and how his Flash Gordon run became a spiritual sequel to Lavender Jack.
Plus why great adventure stories still work today:

Six series deep into Gundam (Original, Zeta/ZZ, Iron-Blooded Orphans, Witch from Mercury, GQuuuuuuX, and Gundam Wing) and what I'm learning is this: most Gundam is basically good, but it's only GREAT once it gets into the back half and the show's like "you guys mind if I light up"
Ha!

LOVE Flash's hair here
BIG agree
Big fan of the Power Men, both in Alex Raymond's original Flash Gordon and in Dan Schkade's version.
The idea that electricity generation on Mongo is the domain of an elite order that even Ming never completely controlled makes perfect sense in the medieval-but-with-rocket-ships setting.
Bulon! Deep cut, nice. I have other plans with him down the line, if we get the chance. As for Gorma, he's a new baddie for this storyline.
Damn, fantastic catch! Yeah, I think there's another story to be told with Bulon. I wanted to make a new villain for the Power Men to chase around, to further the feeling of them having their own parallel storylines we don't see
LOVE the wirepoon. Dual wielding with the sleeping gas gun is such a great look.
In which Flash realizes he's guest starring in somebody else's show, but a true professional always adjusts accordingly
The scene from BATMAN: YEAR ONE where Bruce Wayne, bleeding out in his study, tries to figure out how his War on Crime can begin, edited in with a balloon from a Goofy comic (by which I mean a comic featuring the Disney character Goofy) reading "Welp... time ta TRANSFORM muhself"
