Flash Gordon #1
Flash Gordon #1 (1965) kicks off with Flash and Dale crash-landing on the darkened planet Opto, where the populace wears blinders due to the sun’s sudden extinction and re-ignition. Under the rule of the tyrant Optik, they fight to restore sight—and hope—to a world in perpetual shadow. Paul Norris handles both pencils and inks for the interior art, while George Wilson provides the cover.
In the shadowed halls of the blind planet Opto, where darkness reigns and everyone wears blinders, Flash Gordon and Dale crash-land and find themselves caught in a rebellion. As the sun flickers back to life, Flash must guide a hidden resistance against the tyrant Optik, whose grip on the planet is as deep as its darkness.
