James Bond : Hammerhead de Anyd Diggle et Luca Casalanguida n’étant qu’une mini-série, l’éditeur Dynamite Entertainment a engagé le scénariste Ben Percy (que les lecteurs connaissent surtout pour son travail sur Green Arrow et maintenant sur Teen Titans) pour reprendre en main la série régulière James Bond 007 des mains de Warren Ellis et Jason Masters.
James Bond 007 #13, le premier numéro écrit par Percy, devrait paraitre en janvier 2017.
Contrairement à ce qui a été annoncé, James Bond 007 bénéficiera d’une (00)2ème série sous la tutelle du scénariste Ben Percy, après la conclusion du titre chapeauté par Warren Ellis & Jason Masters donc.
On apprend aussi que le scénariste de Green Arrow et de Teen Titans fera équipe avec le dessinateur Rapha Lobosco pour son premier récit sous-titré Black Box.
James Bond #1 sort en mars aux États-Unis sous une couverture régulière de John Cassaday.
Dominic Reardon, Jason Masters, Goni Montes et Moritat se chargent des couvertures alternatives.
