When did this notion that Raymond peaked in late 1935/early 1936 come into vogue? In the 1960s and 1970s, it seemed to be the consensus that the 1938 to 1939 period was the peak for Flash Gordon -- by then, Raymond seems to have learned that less can be more with respect to his superb line-work.

I'm hardly qualified to compare and pass judgment on Alex Raymond's artistic periods, but, just personally, I have always found his early inking style, far more interesting than his later cleaner style.

In this comic fandom over-sized of super-heroes, in a landscaped with skyscrapers made of tons of comic-books splash-pages... well to see only eight comments for such a masterpiece of one of the fathers of comics is really, really depressive... I think that among those who came after Raymond only Frazetta, Williamson and very few others have reached a kind of quality like the Master. Rob... a museum piece.

Raymond's brushwork here is just incredibly powerful. I love this strip. This is Raymond at the top of his form!
