Dynamite Entertainment will be adapting Ian Fleming's original James Bond novels as graphic novels, beginning with Casino Royale.
James Bond: Casino Royale will be adapted by Van Jensen (The Flash, Green Lantern Corps), with art by Matt Southworth (Amazing Spider-Man). Release is planned for November.
"When we first announced Warren Ellis' breakout original James Bond series, we teased that this would only be the beginning of our relationship with the character and the Fleming family, who have been very generous," said Dynamite CEO and Publisher, Nick Barrucci. "To announce that we have been granted the rights to adapt the original presentation of 007? It's incredibly rewarding as it's the treasured story that any publisher would wish to add to their library. We have been very fortunate to be granted the rights to do so.”
There are 14 James Bond novels written by Ian Fleming. There are 39 officially licensed James Bond books authored by six writers since 1953.
