		But the true measure of a spy hero has to be the dangerousness of his missions and whether there is sufficient opportunity to save the world and preserve civilization against an extreme enemy.
		Not to be outdone by James, however, Alex is a unique spy, who thanks to his dual citizenship works both for the U.S. and the island country of his hideously murdered patrician parents.

		Though based on a full-length novel, the strip version of Thunderball ends up running no longer than a short story, due to the fact that it was prematurely halted by Daily Express proprietor Lord Beaverbrook, who was angered by the publication of Ian Fleming’s The Living Daylights in a rival publication.

	Eye - Veronica Bailey - 05.12.05
		Erno Goldfinger was a modernist architectural figure writ large: the titular villain in the Ian Fleming novel was reputedly based on him, and his Trellick Tower, a soaring brutalist travesty, was denounced by the British public, some of whom believed it actually caused its inhabitants to fall into violent crime.
		Veronica Bailey has taken a group of abstract photos of pages of books in Goldfinger and his companion Ursula Blackwell's library, and initially seems disinterested in her subject's dynamism.
		Yet there are connections: Trellick Tower, for instance, exposes its structure as Bailey does with the books (her view of them is contrary to the one we would normally care to see).
