British Update: No False Modesty (Blaise)
*Collected Editions: We’re delighted to replenish our waning stocks of Modesty Blaise this week with seven of the first Titan series collected paperbacks reprinting her earliest adventures from the London Evening Standard. Modesty Blaise is the creation of Peter O’Donnell and Jim Holdaway; a classy reformed criminal with a crusading streak, Miss Blaise (and her platonic life-partner Willie Garvin) roam the world righting wrong and sometimes doing very bad things – but for very good reasons! Described by the lazy as ‘A female James Bond’, Modesty’s adventures have a sight more warmth, wit and humour than Ian Fleming’s famous creation. These collections feature the art of Holdaway and Romero.
