New line of Bond comics announced

Post by Kristatos »

Hope this is the right forum for this news: http://m.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vis ... k_20141007

Not sure what to make of this. They could be good, could be terrible. I'd want to see a preview before I bought any.

His career pre CR?? Curious. If this is a series not tied to the movies and the images there in this could be a very good series.

This has my curiosity, though not basing them off Fleming's novels is worrying me. I don't want another James Bond Jr. or Young Bond...

I read that the new comics are based on the novels and pre-CR novel.

It sounds like they will be original stories set between the Young Bond novels and CR.
