James Bond Vol 1: Vargr

OVERVIEW

The first story arc from the winning collaboration of Warren Ellis and Jason Masters, and the first chapter of a new Bond for the world of comics.

After a mission of vengeance in Helsinki, James Bond returns to London and assumes the workload of a fallen Double O Section agent. His new mission takes him to Berlin, presumably to break up an agile drug trafficking operation. But Bond has no idea of the forces gathered in secret against him, the full scope of an operation that’s much scarier and more lethal than he could possibly imagine. Berlin is about to catch fire… and James Bond is trapped inside.

All six issues of the Vargr story line are collected in this graphic novel, along with bonus concept art and variant cover showcase.

REVIEWS

‘I love how the writers have tried something new. They take much more from Ian Fleming’s literary canon than they do from the movies, but perhaps that’s wise. Bond was barely safe for work in the 1950s, and so is Vargr today’

MI6 HQ

‘Ellis has wisely created a new and independent Bond universe. There is definitely a very cool retro vibe that works very well for the comic, and a good balance between classic light hearted Bond elements and a bit of noir influenced dark grittiness fans of Dalton and Craig will appreciate’
