Jan 09, 2018Overall. This was a pretty solid first issue, which has enough story to keep me involved for issue 2, which I should imagine will be out next month. There's no doubt about it. Bond is back! Read Full Review

Capeless Crusader - Jeremy Radick
Jan 17, 2018With James Bond - The Body #1, writer Ales Kot and Luca Casalanguida take that depiction of 007 and place it within a surprisingly introspective and rich examination of Bond, utilizing a truly ingenious and compelling framework for the narrative. The result is one of the most unusual and surprisingly effective 007 stories Dynamite's done yet. Read Full Review

Graphic Policy - Brett
Jan 17, 2018I love the concept and want to see what comes next. There's a simplicity about it that's utterly brilliant and Kot and Casalanguida combine for a story that has you wondering how this hasn't happened earlier. A solid story that can be picked up as a one-shot and I think something greater, it's completely entertaining and a definite buy. Read Full Review
