Not anywhere near as good as those Fleming adaptions but still silly and fun adventure stuff with loads of boobs.

As a huge fan of Ian Fleming and his writing, I really wanted to like this more. But it really bothered me that most of the time you saw a female in these strips she was bare-breasted. I don't have issues with nudity in graphic novels, but what I do have an issue with is unnecessary nudity and that is what you find here. It would be really interesting to do some research on this and (considering it appeared in newspapers) see if it was controversial at the time it came out.

Some good moments and strong illustrations, both presented within the strip structure that is very familiar and nostalgic to me from reading newspaper comic serialisations when I was a kid.
But...
Bond's character is wildly inconsistent. For example: one moment he abhors blackmailing villains, the next he is brutally blackmailing a woman himself. Who is, of course, topless. As they all are. For no reason at all (apart from in the last strip, where admittedly it is central to the plot). But it grates. It's hard to be 'thrilled' when you're spending the majority of the time feeling cold for a plethora of women.
