Oh yay maps and lore! It's occasionally so frustrating to try to find lore on Flash Gordon. Especially this incarnation but even older stuff.

It probably also has something to do with me just not being all that much of a science fiction guy — more than the average joe, sure, but not by comics writer standards. I'm mainly a crime, pulp, fantasy, and history guy, so the "Game of Thrones with rockets" approach just plays more to my strengths

I think it's down to my decision to pull primarily from those first few Raymond years, which for the most part are VERY much a sword and planet story. Everything tracks back to that for me — we might go higher or lower tech, but it always comes back to a guy with a sword standing on a weird rock.
