Spy vs Spy: An Explosive Celebration
by Antonio Prohías; ed. John Ficarra (Liberty Street, 2015)
Hardcover, 250+ pages, featuring newly colourised versions of Antonio Prohías’s classic Cold War espionage gag strip (plus newer material by Peter Kuper and one-off Spy vs Spy illustrations by various artists). A beautiful collection, though somewhat overpowering when taken in large doses.
Spy vs Spy: Missions of Madness

The formatting of this Spy vs Spy collection unfortunately does the comic few favours, enlarging each panel but spreading the stories out across many small (125x190mm) pages. Preserving the original layout at an enlarged Franco-Belgian size (210x300mm) would have made more sense.
