It's just strong from the first page and simply gets even more engaging as it progresses and we get the cast, the action sequences, and the drama. Definitely a series I can't wait to see more of this fall. Read Full Review

James Bond origin #1 has some pacing flaws, but mostly hits the mark when it comes to its characters. Jeff Parker has created a young, sloppy Bond, but still makes the character recognizable. It feels like this series will only get better, and I look forward to seeing more. Read Full Review
