Flash Gordon is a 1996 animated television series based on the sci-fi comic strip of the same name.[1] The character, who had been around in the comics pages since Alex Raymond created him in 1934, had recently starred in several film serials, a 1980 feature film, and two earlier cartoon series — The New Adventures of Flash Gordon and Defenders of the Earth.[2]
