James Bond: Casino Royale (James Bond (Graphic Novels)) (ISBN 1840238437)

More is BETTER not worse:
This book is actually really great for comic and 007 lovers alikes. i can not belive this guy gives this book a one star rating just because it gives you extra stories last time i checked extra is BETTER and i thought this guy already has the stories so why is he buying... to collect but if so why is he complaining i dont now.

A Different Approach to Bond:
For Bond fans who can't get enough, this book is a pleasing and thrilling way to look at the character the way Fleming wished him to look. I came across scans of some of these strips on an excellent "Art of James Bond" site, and decided immediately that I must give it a look. It's a different way to experience Bond than the novels and the movies, and is terrifically enjoyable. Highly recommended. Put on a 007 soundtrack cd or two, lean back in your chair with a frosty martini, and travel back into adventure!

as good as the book:
the rendition of casino royale is very close to the original even in the torture scene. there is nothing explicit but you know what's happening. this is a visual companion to the novel and great for Bond purists.

Wonderful adaptation of Fleming's Novels:
I grew up reading these strips in the newspaper when I was a little kid in the 60s and the 70s. I bought this book when it was first published by Titan Books in 1989. It was a wonderful presentation by Titan in high quality paper and a beautifully painted cover. The stories are engrossing and the artwork by McLusky is superb. I would recommend this book highly to any James Bond fan. So why do I award only one star to this book? Titan decided to include Moonraker in this book. People like me who have already purchased the earlier edition of this book have to buy it again just to get the extra Moonraker story.
