Carol Hughes is a beautiful actress, and her Dale Arden is more independent and less helpless than earlier portrayals. However, I must confess a slight preference for Jean Rogers (also a beauty) as Dale Arden. I am not sure why, perhaps it defies logic.

Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe is a fantastic serial though, and seems more advanced, technologically and otherwise, than Flash Gordon '36 or Trip to Mars.

Sergeant Tim has identified one of the very best lines in the FG trilogy, Ming's statement about him being the universe. That, along with his rant to Tarnak in "Mars" about all the planets being destroyed are highwater marks in the series. Middleton was perfect.

Still, I always enjoyed saying to Ming, "You murderer!" in FG '36.
