Flas Gordon

The Spanish publisher Hispano Americana de Ediciones SA launched Flash Gordon in 1942, adapting Alex Raymond's iconic newspaper strip into a local comic series that ran for nine issues. This concise run brought the space-faring adventures of the titular hero to a new audience during the Golden Age of comics, offering a distinct European take on the beloved sci-fi epic. Though brief, the series marks an important early international publication of the property, showcasing the global reach of Raymond's creation.
