James Bond is just a harem anime for boomers, it's all about the new girl new problem vibe.

I will post original editions next. Prepare to be disappointed by the lack of Mr. Bond on the cover of those.

I haven't read or watched any James Bond media, but isn't the thing that it's mostly just him cooming over some girl while some comic book villain style freakazoid tries to kill him? It only actually became about espionage and action in the Daniel Craig movies is what I've heard.

In the movies James Bond is the worst spy ever as he goes around banging women, getting drunk and telling everyone his name.
In the books it's the same but he's defined as more of a government-sponsored hitman than a spy and his boss M is pretty aware of his limitations.

So the licence to kill isn't so much a special privilege for the elite, but more like a disabled badge for the secret service's r-slurs?

I kind of figure that any government operative who leaves a trail of bodies wherever he's been is going to be a nightmare for whoever does the paperwork.

Not at all true. The daniel craig ones are more serious, which is maybe what they were referring to. But the same basic elements are the same in all the movies.

This is wrong because if I recall there was one daniel craig one where he doesn't have s*x at all.

I like when the newer editions of a series/auhor's works have a unified art syle. The new Dune releases look pretty kino.
