Notes:
In 1983 Interpresse published "the official comic book adaptation" of EON Productions' recently released James Bond 007 film "Octopussy".
The comic was produced by Swedish publishing house Semic who in 1982 had begun producing new stories for the long-running Swedish, Norwegian and Danish James Bond 007 comic books. The Semic adaptation of "Octopussy" differs greatly from the vastly superior Marvel Comics movie adaptation published in the US and UK.
The film's screenplay was adapted by British comic book writer Jack Sutter with artwork by Spanish artist Frederico Maidagan. Two years later Maidagan did an even shoddier movie adaptation of "A View to a Kill" for Semic (this album was never released in Denmark).
