Time to visit the origin of the space opera as we know it today as we look into the history of Flash Gordon. How did this prolific series get started back in the 1930's? How did this series influence many of our favourite films and characters of today? How does the band Queen connect to this story?
Also, Dave Bautista has some comments for Disney in response to James Gunn's firing from future Marvel projects.
