For Bond fans everywhere

My fellow Bond fans I have finally launched my graphic novel “Wickensbrew” as its own independent website.
It’s been a long time coming.

So long, in fact, that some of it will no doubt feel dated as the original concept was born back in the eighties. The Project History section of the site explains this in more detail and, spoilers aside, makes for interesting reading.

As for the graphic novel itself; I am a writer first and foremost. I am not a comic book artist. The artwork is more or less a synthesis of imagery - some found - most created - and then recombined into newly original graphics.

Some will like it. Some will not. Most will have opinions ranging back and forth.
I welcome them all.
And for tBond fans everywhere...
fans of both of the films and Ian Flemings novels - I promise you this;
You will have fun.

    Thanks for posting! This was great fun to read and look at!! I've never been a fan of the whole Bond-is-a-code-name idea, but you approached it in a really fun and original way. That's something I never would have thought possible. Loved the whole family/fathers-and-sons aspect and the way you tied in all of the Bonds, as well as the Bond films. Had the Broccoli family decided to take the Bond films in the code-name-theory direction, your treatment would have been an excellent blueprint! On a minor note, mad props for casting Clint Eastwood as Felix Leiter -{

    Finally, I wanted to ask, do you think your script is the reason EON used the title "The World is Not Enough" for one of their films?

    What a blast this was!

    Lots of great humor in here, with Klebb-as-May one of the best. Nice sly take on the Hoagy Carmichael resemblance also. But the funniest bit for me was "Coca-Cola Classic" -- I totally did a spit-take.

    Congrats and thank you, liteman007! {[]
