Are the comic books any good?
The Saint comic books were released in the 60's and kept releasing them up to the 80's as far as I know, has anyone here read these comics, and are they any good?
Here are a few pics of the comic book for those interested in how the typical comic book art-work looks like:
The reason I ask is because I'm thinking of giving these comic-books a shot, and if they're any good I'll try to collect them and eventually have the complete collection
Any help is appreciated, thanks

Re: Are the comic books any good?
My understanding of Swedish is limited to well, the title of this comic book, but I have read most of the manuscripts for these comics and I must say they're not bad.
Don't forget Charteris had at the very least approval of each and every story they published and if you like Saint novels such as The Saint in Pursuit, then you'll get on fine with these.

The Cover art-work looks very good - in the last one Roger looks a touch more Brett Sinclair than Simon Templar.
