At the end of the Flash Gordon Flim we see the ring that Ming the Merciless was wearing get picked up by an unknown hand and the EPIC words "The End ?"
First is this story continued in any media? Second do we know who picked it up ?

2The hand appears to be Ming's. And does the homage in Ted count as "continuing" the story?– Wad CheberJun 20, 2016 at 8:01

No, no subsequent Flash Gordon works are part of the 1980 film continuity.
After the film's release, various Flash Gordon-themed cartoons, comics, games and other works were created. However, none of them were based off or related to the 1980 movie.
The 2007 live-action series did apparently have a few elements similar to those of the film, but not the ongoing plot. The Queen song was also used in its advertising.
