I've deleted the "Notability" tag. The character has been around since 1934 and – as indicated in the article – keeps popping up and is currently featured in a TV show. I've created sub-sections to bring that out. (I agree with the other tags.) 70.108.195.185 (talk) 03:11, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've edited the voice actor from Robert to Alan Oppenheimer, as per the Wiki article on the New Flash animated series, and also as it's unlikely that Dr

Someone speculated on an online forum that Scientology might have been influenced by this character. AThousandYoung (talk) 20:02, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

We know Ming had a daughter. Was there ever a mention of what happened to his wife? Did he usurp the throne, or were his parents royal? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.42.60.87 (talk) 05:42, 29 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The 2013 comic "Merciless: The Rise of Ming" details the character's early life, and gives him a father and a wife. I believe the Arthur Byron Cover novelization of the 1980 film also gives some information on Ming's family (besides Aura). 176.61.97.121 (talk) 12:35, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I've seen all three serials but only have my own memory to go on. Ming did not die in a crematorium at the end of the first serial. He gave himself to the dragon guarding a secret exit that we'd earlier seen in a cliff-hanger. In the second serial, Flash sees him pass through flames without the slightest damage and declares that Ming must be fireproof. There's no explanation given in the third serial how he survived the end of the second. However, just before the spacecraft crashes into the building Ming's trapped in, one of his minions, who recently changed side, says that there is a way out if Ming can only think of it, "but I don't think he will." My understanding is that this was simply to leave a loophole if they decided to make a fourth serial. JDZeff (talk) 21:59, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
