About this Collection

This collection brings together the comic strip adaptations of two classic James Bond stories originally published in the Daily Express: 'Octopussy' and 'The Property of a Lady.' Based on Ian Fleming's original short stories, these strips feature 007 entangled in a plot involving a stolen Fabergé egg and a mysterious woman with a connection to a lost treasure. The volume showcases the artwork of Yaroslav Horak and the scripting of Jim Lawrence, continuing Titan's series of James Bond newspaper strip reprints.

In James Bond 007 #6, titled "Octopussy," Bond returns to Jamaica to investigate the mysterious 20-year-old murder of a mountain guide who once mentored him, uncovering a clandestine gold-smuggling ring tied to a pair of Chinese brothers, a former Army intelligence major with a fascination for marine life, and a highly unusual pet octopus. Written by Ian Fleming and Jim Lawrence, with art, inks, and letters by Yaroslav Horak, this issue blends Cold War intrigue with the eccentric flair of a classic Bond tale, all rendered in Horak’s distinctive, detailed style. The cover by Horak captures the story’s eerie, underwater tension with a striking, moody portrait of Bond amid swirling sea shadows.
