Went to one of my favourite second hand bookshops today, because sometimes you need some escapist fun.

Love that Johnny Alpha. He's my dude.

We're listening to #RussConwayPlays again.

This is very good piano bar music.

#JamesBond, #ModestyBlaise, #WillieGarvin, #InspectorClouseau, #ElizabethTaylor and #SophiaLoren could all be romancing or subtly working their trade.

And #ElderlyRelative has strong memories of #Always. Says it's from a movie and knows the words.

Peter O’Donnell’s The Impossible Virgin starts when a Soviet spy dies in a bush hospital in Tanzania. Modesty Blaise is the temporary nurse. There's an impossible virgin who must remain a virgin, and a gorilla. A fine 1971 Modesty Blaise novel.

Death of a Jester includes three Modesty Blaise comic-strip adventures, all dating from 1971. A fine collection with the title story being particularly good. The strip was getting kinda sexy by this time, with Modesty shedding her clothes.

Warlords of Phoenix collects 3 of Peter O’Donnell's Modesty Blaise comic-strip stories from the late 60s. Mobsters, martial arts capers in Japan and gun-toting dancing girls in the desert. The comics are as good as the novels. Stylish sexy fun.

Peter O’Donnell’s A Taste for Death (1969), a Modesty Blaise novel. With a murdered archaeologist and a kidnapped girl with an odd talent. The Modesty Blaise comics are excellent but the novels have more depth and are more daring. Great stuff.

In 2023 I read 29 books that could at least vaguely be called spy stories. If I had to pick one highlight it would be Peter O'Donnell's The Black Pearl, a collection of four Modesty Blaise comic-strip adventures.

A new #FilmsTRIPS is out! This time, Andrew and I take a look at the baffling 1966 spy comedy #ModestyBlaise: https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/24panelspersecond/episodes/2023-11-20T16_37_20-08_00 #MonicaVitti #TerenceStamp #DirkBogarde #JosephLosey #EvanJones

The Hell-Makers contains three excellent early Modesty Blaise comic-strip adventures by Peter O’Donnell, drawn by Jim Holdaway. With some insights into the Modesty-Willie relationship. The Modesty Blaise comics are just as good as the novels.

Mit der Buchhändlerin über Modesty Blaise gesprochen, die der Unionsverlag leider viel zu rasch fallen gelassen hat.

Sie empfahl mir dann Ava Lee, erschienen bei Kein und Aber, aber ach, auch davon gibt’s nur mehr hin und da ein Restexemplar 😢

The Black Pearl (Modesty Blaise) collects four of 1960s Modesty Blaise comic-strip adventures by Peter O’Donnell. If you only know the novels you really should check out the comics. Fun exciting stylish slightly sexy comics for grown-ups.

I, Lucifer (1967), the third of Peter O’Donnell’s superb Modesty Blaise novels. Modesty finds herself up against Lucifer, a disturbed young man with unusual powers. He thinks he is Lucifer. The novel is clever, witty and great fun.

La Machine was the first-ever Modesty Blaise comic strip, and the first-ever Modesty Blaise story. It’s included, along with the next two adventures, in the first of the Titan Books volumes collecting the comic strips in book form. Great stuff.

I should add that Peter O'Donnell's Modesty Blaise comics are much much better than the movie.

#HappyBirthday to #CliveRevill, the revered New Zealand film, theatre, video game and television actor, born in Wellington #OnThisDay in 1930. His distinguished, Tony-nominated (as Fagin) stage career began in 1950, and he proved a galvanising supporting presence in dozens of films and TV shows, including Herman Cohen's #TheHeadlessGhost (1959), #BunnyLakeIsMissing (1965), #Fathom, #ModestyBlaise (both 1967), #TheAssassinationBureau (1969)...

I had no idea that Peter O'Donnell, the creator and writer of the Modesty Blaise comics and novels, wrote a stack of gothic romance novels under the name Madeleine Brent. And won romance fiction awards for them!
