James Bond: Felix Leiter by James Robinson
4.0
*Received an advance copy from NetGalley*
I would say that this title has been my favorite out of the recent run of Bond and Bond-related comics. Giving Felix center stage, we are offered a slightly different type of story. While still providing all the action and attitude of a typical Bond-like adventure, Felix takes a less self-assured stance on events. He is not James Bond and he knows this. He is more caution at moments and more doubtful of his own abilities, while still rising to the challenges he is faced with.
Effectively plotted and intriguing, this volume brings some refreshing differences to the franchise while still delivering everything that long-time fans expect.
