...center, a few 7-11s, and the remnants of a destroyed drive-in movie screen torn up by a tornado while Gone With the Wind was playing, said Jilly. It's that kind of town. Sixteen churches, a tiny one-room newspaper and a loan office. The head shark, as fate would have it, is Penny's daddy. Everyone in the county owed him money at one time or another.

...adventures in the shadowy cave world of the witch-queen Azura, one of the most sinuous vamps of all time. Wielding sword and ray gun (not to mention skull and bones), Flash survives everything that Mongo's Ming the Merciless can throw at him: sacred droks, octosaks, shark men, iron men, hawk men, even Ming's insatiable daughter, Princess Aura. Forty years on, Dale still sounds like an escapee from a Campbell's Soup ad. Flash still does not get around to marrying her. Author-Illustrator Alex Raymond still seems to be some sort of genius...

Ch. 5, 9 p.m., 2 hours...
