James Bond: Hammerhead #5

Dynamite Comics are quickly becoming my second go to publisher forexcellent books, regardless of the fact that they are not the most well thought of books in the UK (yes, I am looking at you The Travelling Man store in York!).

James Bond: Hammerhead is continuing on in a strong fashion and I can see this series as a whole getting the A-ranking with how well Diggle and Casalanguida have put it together.

This issue ramps things up and attempts to be timely, which will certainly date it down the road, but it connects well in the here and now and becomes a pretty engaging read. Definitely one of the better books Dynamite is putting out in general and definitely among the Bond series, making me hopeful for more miniseries coming out in the future. Read Full Review
