(Printed in issue 25 of Dark Horse Comics) This one-shot comic story has a nameless terrorist organization led by a gentleman named Lexis plotting to blackmail the superpowers of the world. They are going to aim Stinger missiles at nuclear power plants and threaten to blow them up unless they are well paid. Bond gets a recording of their meeting, with the help of Harlan Sykes of the CIA, and has to fly with it back to London.

On the plane, his CIA guide – Robert Nagell – tries to kill him. Bond has a mid-air fight outside of the plane, parachutes for a spell, then lets go of the chute, lands on the plane, and pulls it up just before hitting the water – the pilots, of course, are out cold. Aside from this ridiculous scene, the story is really good. Bond finishes up by delivering the goods to a fellow agent – Nigel Redditch – and proceeding to sneak onto Lexis`s estate that night to assassinate him. Here we see the tortured side of James Bond, the assassin, who remebers every cold-blooded bullet, every woman`s scream. An excellent insight into a complex character.

Interestingly enough, we find out on the last page of the story that Harlan Sykes and Nigel Redditch are actually stealing the evidence handed over by Bond and replacing it with false evidence, for reasons that are not made known to us. They finish up by preparing to discuss their plans “for the abduction of M”! Apparently, there was supposed to be quite a bit more to this story. However, issue #25 was the last issue of Dark Horse Comics ever printed. We may never know what eventually happens! However, it is very much worth the read.
