James Bond: 007, For King and Country #2

Joseph Michael Linsner's cover for this second chapter of For King and Country sets a mood that's equal parts allure and danger — a sharply dressed Bond in a passionate embrace with a woman in white who casually holds a pistol, the pair surrounded by four skulls marked with playing card suits. It's a beautifully rendered image that captures the Bond formula perfectly: romance wrapped in mortality, elegance shadowed by threat. Phillip Kennedy Johnson, Giorgio Spalletta, and the rest of the creative team carry that tension into "Chapter Two" of Dynamite's 2023 series, celebrating 70 years of 007.
