2023 marks the 70th anniversary of Ian Fleming’s legendary super spy James Bond, and Dynamite Entertainment has announced that it will mark the occasion with the launch of the new comic book series 007: For King and Country.
Launching in April in line with the 1953 publication of Casino Royale, the series is written by Phillip Kennedy Johnson along with art from Giorgio Spalleta. Check out the series’ synopsis below, along with the covers to 007: For King and Country #1…
Accused of murder on British soil, James Bond is marked a traitor by his own government. M has sent the entire legion of 00 agents after 007 to stamp out what seems to be the ultimate betrayal. This leaves Bond on the run, with only 003 – Gwendolyn Gann – as his sole ally. Gann is presumed dead and also labelled a traitor. Together Bond and 003 embark on a clandestine mission that could have globe-shattering ramifications!
Can James and Gwen survive to die another day? Or will their own erstwhile allies catch up to them before they can unravel a massive conspiracy?
Along with the new series, Dynamite is also re-releasing all of its various James Bond trade paperbacks and graphic novels throughout the year, allowing fans to expand and complete their Dynamite 007 collections.
007: For King and Country #1 will go on sale in April 2023.
