Flash Gordon And Jungle Jim

the long version

"'Flash Gordon' is arguably the most famous science fiction comic strip of all time. It follows the adventures of the title character and his companions--Dale Arden and Dr. Zarkov--as they leave Earth to discover the source of meteors that are threatening the planet, and get waylaid on the planet Mongo, where they battle the evil Ming the Merciless. The three Earthlings encounter one strange race after another, from the water-breathing Shark-Men of the Undersea Kingdom, to the winged Hawkmen, to the ferocious Tusk-Men. All the while, Flash finds himself in the arms of one beautiful woman after another--much to Dale Arden's chagrin."--Amazon.com.
