A brilliant deconstruction of Bond that continues to re-imagine bond for the 21st century as Ellis and Diggle have done previously. While there is an overarching story, each issue stands by itself and is illustrated by a different artist. The result is a Bond struggling with himself as a deals with the fallout of Brexit, resurgent neo-nazis and thinly veiled private contractors.

What a ride. Kot is a great choice for writing the acerbic and disgruntled Bond, especially since he seems to have free reign in this series. The tone jumps with each issue, going from somber to funny to heartbreaking and then back again. Ales manages to deliver more quotable lines in 6 issues than Diggle did in 12. Definitely up there with Ellis among the Bond comics.
