When a spoiled party girl is kidnapped by dangerous "freedom
fighters", Modesty and Willie must use all their skills
to retrieve her - not that they want to. The dark underworld
of espionage and crime is about to be lit up by the fatal
charms of the gorgeous Modesty Blaise - high priestess of
pulp crime and goddess of cult thrillers...
The
Green-Eyed Monster sees
another collection of classic Modesty Blaise newspaper
strips. As well as The Green-Eyed Monster, this release
also includes the stories Willie the Djinn and Death
of a Jester.
This
collection opens with a profile of artist Enric Badia Romero,
to mark the first full volume of his artwork.
As
we've come to expect, Peter O'Donnell delves into his archives
to ensure that before each story we are treated to a little
background to how each tale came about. The introduction to
Willie the Djinn is particularly interesting as this
was a replacement story that was made simple so that the non-English
speaking Romero wouldn't have any problems understanding what
was expected of his artwork.
This
release is another impressive collection of stories about
the woman who makes James Bond seem like a bit of a girl.
Classic stuff.
