Flash crashes his ship into Ming's palace and Ming is impaled. Ming aims his ring at himself and disappears. Prince Barin becomes king, appoints Vultan as general of the armies and declares that everyone live together in peace. Dale asks Dr. Zarkov if it's possible to return to Earth and he says that he doesn't know but they can try. An unknown person picks up Ming's ring and his evil laughter is heard...

Continuity mistake: The egg timer in the jail is about to run out, but when Dale runs over to it and tries to turn it over, there is more sand in it than before.
Prince Vultan: Onward my brave Hawkmen! Let this be known forever as Flash Gordon's Day.
Trivia: Max von Sydow's costume for the Emperor Ming weighed over 70 pounds and he could only stand in it for a few minutes at a time.
