There's some great stuff in this one, including Willie Garvin's [SPOILER ALERT]presumed [END OF SPOILER ALERT] death when he's tossed out of an airplane a few thousand feet in the air. And Modesty's cage match with a giant gorilla. Not to mention a battle with quarterstaffs against machetes. And a great heist scene. Along with some truly goofy villains, and the endearingly goofy Dr. Pennyfeather, who's really good at what he does, though most people think he's incompetent.
It's all sheer fantasy, and it's all sheer entertainment. Sometimes that's all I need, and Modesty Blaise never disappoints.

Loved all of the series.
Another favorite, particularly because of the [SPOILER ALERT] death scene and later reunion. Peter O'Donnell was the best of the best.
