Flash Gordon Adventures! Vol. 3 - by Mike Kunkel & Aj Kunkel & Mike Cavallaro & Maria Scrivan & Shane Campos (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

Flash Gordon Adventures returns with a brand new story by Eisner Award-winning cartoonist Mike Kunkel (Herobear and the Kid) where Flash Gordon and friends have to deal with mischievous doppelgangers, or Dopplers--who are almost identical versions of Flash, Dale, and Dr. Zarkov.

Flash and his friends are pulled from their relaxing day-off picnic when they're blamed for chaos erupting in the Lion Kingdom, where the citizens are covered in glitter and bubbles.

The gang quickly discover that mischievous doppelgangers, or Dopplers--almost identical versions of Flash, Dale, and Dr. Zarkov--are on the loose, causing trouble in their name all over the planet, and the culprit behind it all is...of course the bored Ming, who's using a Temporal Displacement Remote to create a chaotic reality show for his own amusement.

The gang splits up to chase the Dopplers across various lands--Arboria, Mountainia, Tropica, and Frigia--teaming up with friends like Barin, Rocky, Shark, and King Vultan. Ultimately leading to a final showdown with the Dopplers at Ming's castle!

Joining cartoonist Mike Kunkel on this fresh Flash Gordon story is writer AJ Kunkel. The two collaborated as a father-son storyteller team to bring this brand new adventure to life! Plus brand-new short stories from Mike Cavallaro (Nico Bravo), Maria Scrivan (Nat Enough), and Shane Campos!
