Description
Modesty Blaise version 1, released by Polaris-Starhome.
Modesty Blaise comic strips, collections, and books scanned at 300 dpi, edited, and uploaded by Sirius-Starhome. Episodes of the comic strip are in CBR files. Collections of the comic strip, and the novels, are in CBR and/or HTML formats, plus EPUB, MOBI, and PDF. Modesty Blaise, Willie Garvin, and the rest of the characters in the Modesty Blaise newspaper strips, were invented by the late Peter O'Donnell (1920-2010), who wrote all the comic strips and books. The late Peter Holdaway was the original artist on the strip, but Enrique Romero was the last artist, and did as many strips as all the other artists put together.

COLLECTIONS —      The Gabriel Set-Up by Peter O'Donnell Modesty Blaise Titan Books v1 001 1984 (Sirius-Starhome) Mister Sun by Peter O'Donnell Modesty Blaise Titan Books v1 002 1985 (Sirius-Starhome) The Hell-Makers by Peter O'Donnell Modesty Blaise Titan Books v1 003 1986 (Sirius-Starhome) The Gabriel Set-Up by Peter O'Donnell Modesty Blaise Titan Books v2 001 2004 (Sirius-Starhome) Mister Sun by Peter O'Donnell Modesty Blaise Titan Books v2 002 2004 (Sirius-Starhome) Collections often have extra illustrations and information about the strips and the author, and for a long time were the only way readers could collect the strips for re-reading. The magazine Comics Revue was, for many years, the only reliable way for American readers to find strips they hadn't read. Titan Book started a line of high-quality reprints ("volume 1") which ran for a few years before ending after 8 issues. Years later they started a new line of Modesty Blaise compilations ("volume 2"), which began at the beginning and kept on going in order. These have slowed down their rate of publication, but I believe they're still in business; I'll tell you more next time.

More Modesty Blaise material will be released in the regular comics scans as Sirius completes them, and added to version 2, version 3, etc. of this torrent. Sirius says, "I've been really negligent about doing new scans of the Modesty Blaise strips, books, and collections. Right now I have to go through my collection and put it in order so I can get back to work on it. There definitely will not be a new MB in the June 2016 comics release. After that … who knows?" A friend of Sirius had a Modesty Blaise concordance and index on his web site some years ago. He's promised to bring it up to date so we can include it in future versions of this torrent. After you've downloaded the torrent, please seed to a ratio of 2.0 or more, so the torrent stays alive for everyone who wants it. Also, let us know if the torrent needs to be reseeded.
