From my initial viewing of the two I would rate Flash Gordon '36 slightly higher than Trip to Mars, but not by much. FG '36 is faster paced and includes more exotic locales, kingdoms, etc. King Vultan is an especially entertaining character.

I thought the acting by Buster Crabbe and Jean Rogers in Trip to Mars was a bit improved over Flash Gordon '36, while Frank Shannon as Zarkov gave pretty much the same level performance in both serials.

Flash Gordon '36 had an evil Princess in Ming's daughter Aura, while Trip to Mars had an evil Queen in Azura. And while typing this post I noticed for the first time that the letter z is the only difference in their two names!
