Modern Prince Valiant is a bit of a step down from the OG Val we've been regaled with, but that is a hell of a first panel.

I do really like the identical ladies on either side that match up and obscure the panel breaks. I think that's clever.

I want to say rather than this endless sequence of pretty lame Flash Gordon pastiches I wish they'd hire a writer to do an adventure-based pulp sci-fi Flash Gordon strip for the year 2021 but then I look at Mark Trail and I think I'm gonna take the pastiches over "Flash, Ming the Merciless has more followers than you on the, uh, spacenet or whatever anyway you have to do a challenge now"

I love this incredibly weird relationship where the Hag's so committed to being evil she hasn't figured out that Wimpy will tolerate almost anything in exchange for gratuitous food and that all her other attempts at manipulation are just counterproductive.

Yeah, that's what I figured. And the question then becomes, "What is Mary Goethal trying to accomplish, here?" Is she using the will-reading to publicize the Great Merko as a pioneering womantrapeze artist? because I can't see how that answer gets her a share of the money.
