This is another two-part episode, as the Japanese subtitled version will be reviewed next week!
This is a fascinating movie, though I can see why it might not have made that much money originally.

Dragons Forever?
Well, I may have a rather interesting take on this classic Jackie-Sammo-Yuen Biao movie in the near future.
Villain of the Week- Ming the Merciless
From Wiki- Ming the Merciless is a fictional character who first appeared in the Flash Gordon comic strip in 1934. He has since been the main villain of the strip and its related movie serials, television series and film adaptation. Ming is depicted as a ruthless tyrant who rules the planet Mongo.[1] In Alex Raymond's comic strip, when the heroic Flash Gordon and his friends land on the fictional planet Mongo, they find it ruled by an evil emperor, a despot who quickly becomes their enemy.[2][3] He was not named at first, only being known as the Emperor until six weeks later, when his name was revealed to be "Ming".[4]
The capital of his empire is named Mingo City in his honour. In addition to his army, Ming is shown to have access to a wide variety of science fiction gadgets, ranging from rocket ships to death rays to robots. Though evil, he has his weaknesses, which include a desire to marry Flash's beautiful companion, Dale Arden.[2] Ming's daughter Princess Aura is as evil as he is when the series begins, but is eventually reformed by her love for Flash, and later for Prince Barin of Arboria.
