The artwork is quite good, especially how it paces out Bond’s mental processes, though it leans a little heavy on photo references at times. If you weren’t aware, apparently Bond looks like Michael Fassbender! ( ) As an adaption, I'd say this is quite good. Calero's art captures the atmosphere of a gritty spy world wonderfully, and Jensen's adaption of Fleming's novel is concise while still keeping Fleming's prose. As for the original story, "not my thing" is probably the best I can say about it. Bond is extremely sexist, even when he claims to love Vesper. The book is also littered with racist terms that aren't used anymore (at least, not used by anymore by people who don't want to use racist terms). A retro look at the original James Bond starter novel, that is set in the world of he faded 1950's at a dangerous early part of the Cold War. For the true fan, this is a delight. For fans of the films only with no knowledge of the source material, I think ha this might serve as an introduction. I think that the noir like appearance of the art, and pacing, held together well for the gambling scenes, but less so the romance and the suspense. The violence was there and not as graphic as anything written today. If you're a fan of the novel, or of literary Bond, or like me, you rue e day that you realised, your literary hero was never truly going to come to get silver screen, then this is the next best thing. As stated above, it's not flawless but it's differently enjoyable to the novel. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
