James Bond 007 #[1]
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume collects the 1987 comic strip adaptation of the James Bond film The Living Daylights, originally serialized in newspapers. The story follows Bond as he is assigned to protect a Soviet defector and uncovers a plot involving arms dealers and a deadly sniper. Illustrated by artists including John McLusky, this edition presents the classic adventure in a collected format for the first time from Titan Books.
In James Bond 007 #1 (1987), a resurrected Bond—still reeling from a near-fatal brainwashing in Japan—returns to England only to nearly kill M before being deployed on a high-stakes mission to Jamaica. Sent to eliminate the elusive Francisco Scaramanga, a hitman known for his precision in "scientific maiming," Bond finds himself in a tense showdown at a rundown resort where a gathering of criminals turns deadly. Written by Ian Fleming and Jim Lawrence, with art by Yaroslav Horak and a striking cover by Dave McKean, this issue blends Cold War intrigue with a pulse-pounding train journey through a crocodile-infested swamp.
