Posted on by Leave a comment

Titan Comics has announced Ian Fleming’s James Bond Signature Comic Strip Collection, a hardcover edition celebrating the earliest newspaper comic-strip adventures of the world’s most famous secret agent, arriving in bookstores and comic shops on September 8, 2026.

Written by Henry Gammidge, Anthony Hern, and Peter O’Donnell, and illustrated by acclaimed artist John McClusky, this 296-page volume collects the first seven full-length adventures of James Bond as originally adapted from the novels of Ian Fleming for the daily newspaper strips.

Spanning the formative years of the Bond comic strips from July 1958 to May 1961, this landmark collection brings together faithful comic adaptations of Fleming’s earliest and most influential novels, including Casino Royale, Live and Let Die, Moonraker, Diamonds Are Forever, From Russia with Love, Dr. No, and Goldfinger. These classic stories helped shape the enduring legend of the British super-spy and laid key foundations for the global phenomenon that would become the James Bond cinematic universe.

With striking black-and-white artwork and cinematic storytelling, John McClusky’s interpretation of Bond captures the danger, glamour, and intrigue that defined Fleming’s original vision. In addition to the complete comic-strip adventures, this edition features a unique gallery of original artwork selected from the McClusky archive by his family.

Ian Fleming’s James Bond Signature Comic Strip Collection is a must-have for fans of classic adventure, combining hard-hitting action, beautiful locations, and the unmistakable style of Britain’s greatest secret agent — complete with the occasional Vodka Martini, shaken, not stirred.

But what does a sheltered princess know of the other realms? Well, not a whole lot. Luckily, Helia is joined by her (only) friend and bodyguard, the ice witch, Sidra. Together, the pair will brave the deserts of Flaterra, the blizzards of Frosterra…uh, you get the idea…until they’ve rescued the wayward prince, thwarted Gogo, and punched every henchman they can find. And maybe, by the end of their journey, Helia and Sidra will realize their connection goes beyond mere friendship… …find out in BEAT EVERY 1-UP, a young adult graphic novel that will bring a new definition to “your princess is in another castle!”
