I'm sure this was discussed earlier but I didn't really tune in. Is OHMSS being released as a comic? Or rather is it a 'graphic novel' and if so, what is the difference?

In fact it was a comic strip published between june 64 and may 65 in the Daily Express. It is compiled now as a comic book.

Ahhh! So it's basically a comic strip. I get confused as to what the difference is between a comic and a graphic novel if any. I presume the term 'graphic novel' make those of a geeky disposition feel as if they're reading proper literature.

I think I might order that. After all it is my favourite of both the films and of the books.

I'm looking to get these also, this one included, more literary Bond, especially the older classics, can only be a good thing.

Just have to track 'em down.

Amazon.

Not the website, the actual Amazon where small tribes are whipped until they fill their drawing quota for the day and are granted 30 minutes sleep until the new working day begins.
