Dynamite Entertainment's "Felix Leiter"
Hello dear listeners!
We want to talk to you about James Bond’s best friend in the whole wide world: Felix Leiter. What a swell guy, eh? Oh, what’s that now? Which version?
Oh, no no, we’re talking about the Jack Lord version.
Nope, nor the Cec Linder one.
Nor the Norman Burton one either.
Okay, you can stop gues-.
No, not Rick Van Nutter.
It’s alright, we’ll just tel-
Ugh, not the Jeffrey Wright version either.
Alright, that’s it, this week we’re discussing Dynamite Entertainment’s “Felix Leither” comic book that ran from early to mid 2017. Written by James Robinson and drawn by Aaron Campbell, this 6-issue story arc takes the former CIA agent on a solo mission to mission to Japan…where he isn’t working solo since he’s actually partnered with Tiger Tanaka.
Fear not, listeners. It isn’t because 007 himself isn’t around that there isn’t anything to talk about. Have Dynamite Entertainment properly crafted the time line of their comics series? Is it better to have a romantic ending or a cynical one? What are the two things Felix and former flame Alena are good at (hint: one of them involves going undercover)? Can nobody ever really leave the CIA? Does Felix Leiter have Kermit the Frog eyes?
So sit back, relax, and let hosts Mathieu and Edgar take you on a unique detour away from Bond to spend time with an old friend.
No, it’s not the David Hedison version…
