Ennis will be joined by artist Rapha Lobosco and cover artist Dave Johnson.
Amid a raft of high-profile announcements timed to New York Comic Con, Dynamite Entertainment this week announced that The Boys co-creator Garth Ennis will take on the writing chores for an all-new James Bond series, celebrating this year's 70th anniversary of Ian Fleming's super-spy character by setting up a new status quo for Bond early next year.
"When I took a look at the Bond of the Fleming novels, as opposed to the larger-than-life figure from the movies, I saw a great deal more potential — a much darker character in a more interesting world," Ennis said in a statement. Given that concept --"a relic of the Cold War" -- it certainly feels like the new Bond will move into the modern day, rather than being set during the time of the novels.
Dynamite has joined artist Rapha Lobosco, who has previously taken on 007 with Benjamin Percy's Black Box and an issue of Aleš Kot's The Body, to draw the series. With other credits including Dynamite's two crossovers with Tim Seeley's Hack/Slash, Lobosco is the perfect match here with a great sense of character and storytelling.
