Modesty Blaise ─ Death in Slow Motion

The dark underworld of espionage and crime is lit up by the fatal charms of the gorgeous Modesty Blaise — high priestess of pulp crime. Adventurer, spy, racketeer and all-round bad girl, Modesty is as stylish as she is smart and as lethal as she is beautiful!

This latest volume features the classic stories The Balloonatic, Death in Slow Motion, and The Alternative Man in which Modesty and Willie race against time to save an old friend and his daughter in a desert; foil a Caribbean drug racket while playing Robinson Crusoe; and battle a sinister assassination bureau!

With introductions by Peter O’Donnell and an exclusive feature by Eisner-awarded artist Steve Epting.
