Reseña de Tebeosfera: Ediciones BO inicíó la publicación de la serie FLASH GORDON, del dibujante MAC RABOY con la plancha fechada el 8-I-1950, debido a que, aunque Raboy empezó a dibujar la seie el 1-VIII-1948, no se publicaron esas 75 planchas porque no se encontraron los originales de tres de ellas. Una vez localizadas esas planchas, ediciones BO preparó una edición para completar cronológicamente la serie.
