Stardate 06.07.2021.A: Savior Of The Universe - On This Day In Flash Gordon History!

One of the things I've always wanted to do on the MainPage here of SciFiHistory.Net is to conceive these pull-out features on individual days regarding the movers and shakers within a wider franchise for a bit of additional focus.  For example, I've always wanted to pen a daily feature along the lines of 'All Roads Lead To Marvel' wherein I specifically highlighted all of the associated birthdays, movies, TV episodes, etc., relating to the Marvel Universe ... but as anyone can guess it takes more than a bit of time to build up those citations with research.  So, in the meantime, I might just start putting together what I can in smaller blog posts like this -- the first one -- for "Savior Of The Universe: On This Day In Flash Gordon History!"

Naturally, I need a bit of additional preparation -- graphics and the like -- to get closer to what I envision, but as I sat here this morning I figured I wasn't getting any younger; and since life was getting only shorter I'd make an honest stab at this.

So without further ado ...

​Birthdays

Born on this day in 1924 was illustrator and comics book artist was Frank Bolle, a creative who actually worked on the Gold Key Comics run of the immortal Flash Gordon during the 1970's.  Fans interested in seeing the work he created can purchase a copy of a copy of the Flash Gordon Comic Book Archives: Volume 4 (Dark Horse Comics, first edition printed in 2011) as all indications are Bolle's run is included in this collection.  Alas, it's definitely priced a bit steep for my liking; hopefully there will eventually be a digital release that's priced more affordable for the masses-at-large.

Flash!  He'll save every one of us!
