Modesty Blaise Companion Gets Limited Reprint
Reading time: 1 minute
The Book Palace has announced that there's a new limited edition reprint of their expanded edition of its Modesty Blaise Companion, which was first published in 2018.
The first edition, published in 2005, sold out very quickly and now sells at high premiums on the secondary market. Fans have been clamouring for this updated edition, which also sold out, but is now back in stock again, in a limited special softcover edition.
A new introduction and obituary of Peter O’Donnell by Laurence Blackmore, plus new features not in the first edition:
- A full index of the Titan Book reprints
- Reproductions of 9 missing strips not appearing in the Titan Books
- Details of the three radio plays adaptations
- Information on the DVD “In the Beginning” produced by Tarantino
Everything you could possibly want to know about Peter O'Donnell's classic creation, Modesty Blaise, from novels to newspaper strips, with full story outlines, over 2,000 character descriptions, over 1800 illustrations by Jim Holdaway, Enric Romero, John M Burns, Neville Colvin and Patrick Wright, plus the original Souvenir Press book covers. Includes the origin story 'In the Beginning'.
Only 400 copies are available, and it costs a handsome £40, available to order from The Book Place direct.
