5.0 out of 5 stars A Fun Read

Mdesty Blaise: (Comic Book) “Mister Sun” by Peter O’Donnell (story) & Jim Holdaway (art). Titan Books, 2004. Actually, this is a graphic novel containing three comic stories featuring Modesty Blaise: “Mister Sun”, “The Mind of Mrs. Drake”, and “Uncle Happy”. Modesty Blaise actually started as a comic, so this graphic novels captures the original stories. I don’t know anything about the comic book series, and have only read one of the novels at this point, but from what I’ve read so far, she’s top notch in both of these medias. These three comic book novels attest to that fact. My only complaint is no real complaint against either. However, I prefer comic books in four colors, not black & white panels. But regardless, the art and stories in this volume were excellent.

Weng does something foolish after he finds out his sister is alive, and gets involved with a drug dealer, and Modesty and Willie end up fighting the Viet Cong to try and get to her. Apart from that, they deal with a psychic and a group of agent recruiters, and a pair of sociopaths running a large call-girl operation.

Currently, at Amazon.ca there is one review for this book and it gives 1 star. That is grossly unfair. Of the strips I've read, Modesty Blaise is the most addictive of any I've seen, and this particular book is no exception. If adventure strips were all of this quality, maybe the genre would still be thriving. Anyone who likes any adventure strip will almost certainly like this one, and it's a good bet for most anyone else. I heartily recommend this strip.

Ordered all the 'books' thought I was getting a 'novel/mystery/drama based on the cartoons but instead got cartoon/comic books. I did not think that was made clear in the description unless I missed it completely. I had to return all the books I ordered. As i wanted a good read and not a comic book.
