TO THE HELM!
What if you had a magical superpower and it
hated your guts? Matt Blurdy’s day has gone from crap to worse. Not only did his
girlfriend break his heart at work—and in front of all of the video-store
patrons—but he just got fired. All that’s left to do is minibike his sorry,
thirty-year-old (and freshly unemployed!) butt back home to his mom’s basement
and drown his sorrows in a bucket of extra crispy chicken while contemplating
where his life went wrong.
On the way home, Matt decides to quiet his aching heart with a brief detour to a
garage sale. When an ancient-looking helmet calls to him as “the Chosen One,”
exhorting him to don the mantle of the “Valhalladrim,” Matt touches it with
trembling fingers—and is jolted by raw magical power. Holy crap! Is he going to
be a superhero? Is this why he always felt special even when everyone else
thought he was a loser? Then the helm gets a sense of whom it’s dealing with.
Suddenly, it changes its tune: “I was mistaken. You are not the chosen one. Good
day.”
But for once in his life, Matt’s not taking no for an answer. Not today.

It's been over 13 years since Flash graced the pages of comic books and
this contemporized version of the classic iconic sci-fi hero, written
for the 21st century, already has comic fans in a frenzy.
As a sample of things to come, Ardden released a special issue zero at
the New York Comic-Con in April, selling 3250 copies in a day and a
half. The issue zero featured an exclusive Ming the "Merciful" and
Prince Barin story - and gained many great reviews from fans, retailers
and web-based forums.
Writer and co-publisher Brendan Deneen, previously a production &
development executive for The Weinstein Company & Dimension Films, and
now a literary agent based in New York City, gives an insight to what
this new series will offer fans of Flash Gordon and newcomers to the
world of Mongo.
"While remaining true to the spirit of Alex Raymond's incredible
creations, I'm looking to craft a story and world where our unsuspecting
heroes come face-to-face with unimaginable threats and breathtaking
landscapes (aided in no small part by Paul Green's amazing artwork). At
the same time, the civil war on Mongo, and Ming's certainty that he is
doing what's right for the 'insurgents' battling him, will ring true to
anyone who's been paying attention to world events over the last five or
so years."
