We may still be waiting to hear which new star will take on the license to kill, but equally great news about 007 reveals a new comic book series is on the cards, and they've got a mastermind to handle it all. Grant Morrison, the brilliant comic book writer behind one of the greatest Superman comics ever, All-Star Superman, and the co-creator of Damien Wayne, has been announced to handle a new series of adventures in partnership with IDW and Ian Fleming Publications.
In a statement to The Hollywood Reporter, IDW CEO Davidi Jonas said, “Pairing a renowned franchise like James Bond with the visionary writer Grant Morrison is a perfect example of IDW doing what it does best with licensed properties. Our goal isn’t to simply provide supplemental and optional stories. We strive to take radical swings which celebrate and stay true to the very qualities that make the franchise special while also reinventing it for the modern comic book landscape.”
Morrison also shared thoughts on taking charge of the legendary super spy, and it sounds like a dream come true. "I’ve been a James Bond fan for as long as I can remember and this opportunity to put my own stamp on a British character as iconic as King Arthur, Robin Hood or Sherlock Holmes was too good to miss."
The new six-part adventure is titled Sunbreaker and currently has no artist assigned to the project.
