The art of FBFO: part 007
Every month, the For Bond Fans Only Facebook group asks members to vote for a Bond-related topic/theme to celebrate and discuss in depth. For instance, FBFO may shine the spotlight on one of the actors, a specific film in the series, a character or a novel/short story, etc.
Anything is up for suggestion, by any member... but there's a twist. You see, FBFO has an affectionate streak of sardonic humour running throughout it, very much like Bond himself, so there is only one caveat: all suggestions have to be pun-tastic! This is demonstrated by the gems (and groaners) below.
Since February 2020, FBFO's very own Chris Smith has produced the artwork banner images for these monthly, pun-embracing, celebrations. Collated below are his designs for the first half of 2022. Enjoy.
January 2022: "Janulairy"
Theme: villains' lairs — from the spectacular to the exotic to the practical.
February 2022: "Deadruary"
Theme: death — including James Bond himself.
March 2022: "M-arc-h"
Theme: like it or not — Daniel Craig's story arc.
April 2022: "Licence to April"
Theme: a whole month dedicated to LTK? Oh, go on, then.
May 2022: "May Day"
Theme: don't turn your back on her for one more minute! Russell Harty found out the hard way.
June 2022: "June Is Bustin' Out All Over"
Theme: tits!
The Art of FBFO will return.
