  Oh yes. =D> Looking forward to these.

  
  It look great & Excitant One cover show Sean Connery in the third picture. On top look a little bit like Timothy Dalton carrying the Walther P99. I wonder what cars he'll drive?

  I prefer the monthly issues anyway. It feels good to hold such an issue in my hands. I prefer it over a trade paperback or a hardback.

  
  Unless it's a Ltd Ed numbered hardback with a hardback slipcase and sketchbook. ;)
  
  I'll buy the monthly issues. But i'll probably end up buying the TBP later on.

  Got the monthlies for Mad Max, rather than the upcoming graphic novel collection, and the issues look and feel brilliant; extremely high quality. And, 4 covers instead of 1! :D
  I think I'm going to get a comic book binder to put those, and the upcoming Bond monthlies into to look through.

  I'll definitely be buying them monthly.
  
  I'll have a small privilege insofar that the pop culture website I write for (my speciality is film) actually accepted my offer to be a part of the comic book section to review this upcoming series, so I'll probably have some sort of PDF files heading my way from the publisher (or something along those lines from what I gather), but as a die hard Bond fan, I'll be buying the printed versions regardless.

  Looks like Dynamite's James Bond is modeled on the older traditional Bond image. I thought they might have given their Bond a bit of a Daniel Craig look to appeal to modern JB fans. That art is by Glenn Fabry, best known for his amazing art on Slaine for 2000 AD comic.

  Apparently, Warren Ellis wants to drift away from the film series of the recent, and wants a direct travelling into the books. Although, it is Fleming's Bond he's writing, the plot takes place in the modern age.

  I'm still wondering what does 'VARGR' mean, though.

  And I am thankful for that. As for VARGR, could be a name, or an acronym.

  And the Pope's Revenge (or Sankt Walter" in the background to boot. Yup, that's definitely Berlin. But pre- or post 1989 ?

  I am wondering, will the comic be black and white like the preview pages, or in color like the covers?
  i for one would like the b&w since it reminds me a lot of the comic strips, and it looks a bit more classy
• mcdonbb deep in the Heart of Texas

  My understanding is that the b&w pages are just preview pages.
  
  I mean the link states that ..I believe the published pages are color.
