Dynamite Publishes Warren Ellis James Bond Omnibus in February
A few years ago, I was talking to Mike Lake, co-founder of Forbidden Planet and Titan, about his difficulty in getting a James Bond comic book published. He had the rights, worked with the Flemyng estate, but had difficulty getting anyone to take his plans seriously. So I introduced him to Nick Barrucci of Dynamite Entertainment, suggesting there may be a natural kinship between the publisher and the brand considering the other books they published. And it seemed to work out.
Anyway a few years later and Dynamite are to publish the James Bond: The Complete Warren Ellis Omnibus containing both his Bond stories for the publisher, drawn by Jason Masters. And all the variant covers too, which probably given this is Dynamite, make up most of it. Alongside they will also be publishing the first Ellis/Masters issue as part of their dollar reprint line, to give a taste.
Both will be published in February.
