James Bond Origin comic to be launched

007 is getting a story comic book series, with the first edition set to be released in September.

In 2014, comic book company Dynamite Entertainment made a deal with the estate of Ian Fleming to produce a range of comics, graphic novels, and digital comics.

The previous time Bond appeared in comic form was in 1996. Dynamite Entertainment re-launched the James Bond comics on 4 November 2015.

James Bond Origin will take readers back to 1941 when Bond was a 17-year-old orphaned student. The stories will be penned by Jeff Parker, who has written for Suicide Squad, Batman '66, and Thunderbolts.
