The synopsis: With Kro-Tan now controlling the world’s power source, the leaders of all countries have lined up against Flash Gordon and his friends, the Defenders of the Earth. Now hunted by the people they swore to protect, they’re forced to make their last stand. All roads end here in the action-packed conclusion of the first arc of Defenders of the Earth!
This issue does not feature the Phantom much but with the tease of the cover of issue 5, we are likely to see more Phantom featured. We would love to hear your thoughts on the series.
We would recommend you checking our platforms as we have published three interviews with the creator team for the series in Dan DiDio the writer, Jim Calafiore the illustrator and Chas! Pangburn the editor.
