Modesty Blaise

From 1988 to 1992, Carlsen Comics collected the original British newspaper strip into a nine-issue German-language series, reintroducing Peter O'Donnell's iconic, self-reliant heroine to a new audience. Anchored by Jim Holdaway's elegant, cinematic artwork, these volumes preserved the taut espionage adventures that defined the character's classic run. A key bridge between the strip's British origins and its European fandom, this edition made Modesty Blaise's globe-trotting exploits accessible in a collected format for the first time.
