Notes:
Story #7. Faithful adaptation of Ian Fleming's 7th 007 novel from 1959. Due to criticism about the book's plot, the 1964 film changed the ending, incorporating the criticism itself into the script, and adding the threat of nuclear destruction from the plot of THUNDERBALL (which, at the time of filming, was in the hands of rival producer Kevin McClory). The Fountainbleau was also the setting of the 1960 film, THE BELLBOY.
Notes:
Includes cover of US hardback of FOR YOUR EYES ONLY (MJF, 1995). Note is made of the fact that the comic-strip villain, Kristatos, bears a striking resemblance to actor Chiam Topol, who played the smuggler, Columbo in the movie FOR YOUR EYES ONLY, 20 years later!
Notes:
Story #8. Faithful adaptation of Ian Fleming's short story from the FOR YOUR EYES ONLY collection (1960), which started out as the 5 best plot outlines for a proposed 007 TV series that never materialized. This story was later adapted quite faithfully as the middle sequence of the film, FOR YOUR EYES ONLY (1981). The editor notes the irony of the strip's version of Kristatos resembling actor Chaim Topol, who played Columbo in the film; meanwhile, the strip's Columbo actually resembles Gabriele Ferzetti, Tracy's father in O.H.M.S.S., more than the strip version of that character does.
Notes:
Includes cover of foldout pamphlet edition (Travelman, 1999).
Notes:
Story #9. Faithful adaptation of Ian Fleming's short story from the FOR YOUR EYES ONLY collection (1960), which started out as the 5 best plot outlines for a proposed 007 TV series that never materialized. This story was never adapted in any of the films, though elements of it did turn up in an episode of THE AVENGERS tv series, "The 13th Hole" (1966), as well as THE NEW AVENGERS, "The Tale Of The Big Why" (1975).
Notes:
Includes cover of movie tie-in edition (Triad / Granada, 1981).
Notes:
Story #10. Faithful adaptation of Ian Fleming's short story from the FOR YOUR EYES ONLY collection (1960), which started out as the 5 best plot outlines for a proposed 007 TV series that never materialized. This story was later adapted as an early sequence of the film, FOR YOUR EYES ONLY (1981).
Notes:
Includes covers of US hardback (MJF, 1994) and paperback (Penguin, April 2003).
Notes:
Story #11. Faithful adaptation of Ian Fleming's 8th 007 novel (9th book) from 1961, which was based on a series of screenplays for an unproduced film project with producer Kevin McClory, who went on to collaborate on the eventual 1965 film. Due to Ian Fleming's inadvertently allowing a competing newspaper to publish his short story, THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS, the publisher of THE DAILY EXPRESS yanked the newspaper strip only 1/3rd of the way into this adaptation! He and Fleming settled their differences a year later, but when the strip resumed, it was with the following story, so THUNDERBALL has never, to this day, been fully adapted in comics form.
Notes:
Contains 2 strips from GOLDFINGER censored by THE DAILY EXPRESS, and 6 strips drawn for THUNDERBALL but only published overseas due to the strip's abrupt cancellation and "explosively compressed ending".
Notes:
A look at James Bond from a Russian perspective. Includes covers of FROM A VIEW TO A KILL (RIO, 1990), Russian hardcover collection of 3 novels (Center Poligraph, 1996) and RISICO (MGP IKAM, 1991).
