Not defeated by this, Flanders went on doing comics that were created by others. He took over 'Secret Agent X-9' from Alex Raymond, which he continued until 1938. In addition, he continued the 'King of the Royal Mounted' Sunday page from 1936. He became the sole artist on this strip in 1938.

A year later, he was assigned to Fran Striker's 'The Lone Ranger', which he drew until 1971. After his retirement, Charles Flanders settled in Spain, where he died in 1973. He was 65 years old.
