Don't like this at all.
James Bond, muscular, bristling, blacksmith. Age 13.
What is this - a 30s literary take on Craig coming out of the water?

Wow, very different to what I was expecting. I like it! Hope the others - should they be released - follow suit.

No, not at all. I've just seen this happen with so many other comics and graphic novels...just seems like something they'd do.

I wish somebody would get the idea of this is a 30s-style adventure book. They always seem to miss that; it looks a bit portentous.

Mr* - really meant the muscularity of the pose .
Which, other than Craig, has, IMO, only been done here. (And if you include early Sean and LAz - go to the gym more often, hey its good for for your heart and your physique).

It is quite good. Good to see something from this after all the heart breaking delays.

FYI, I've updated my story with a new high res image.
Great stuff.
The eel on the cover looks a bit... odd. But the pic of Young Bond works well, in my opinion.

Yeah, I'm not sure about that bit. Apart from that the cover is pretty good. I'm more interested in the contents of it anyhow.

Is there going to be a U.S. print of the graphic novel? Or this only a U.K. thing?

It appears to be only a UK thing. Although I'd expect some of the major US comic book stores would import copies.

What about stores like Borders and Barnes And Noble, would they have them? Seeing that they never had the James Bond Comic, that are old Daily newspaper comics in the stores.
