This was very fun. I also enjoyed Ellis run.  This should be good stuff. 

Absolutely, Eidolon was enjoyable, don't mistake my comment for saying that I didn't like it (not that you did though). My only real complaint was that it didn't feel very exotic in the places Bond traveled (then again neither does Vegas [Diamonds are Forever]) which has most often been a staple of the franchise. But I don't think they could have told the story they did unless they worked from home, so to speak.

Agreed.  This run seems a little more " traditional James Bond" if you will.  It is on the pull list. And yeah, that first opening sequence was so much like For Your Eyes Only. I could hear Sheena Easton singing in the background. Ha. 

One thing I am finding with this series is that Bond's voice, to me, sounds more American than British - the language and its structure. 

I would completely agree. Ellis really had the British Cadence down. Which makes sense. 

yeah you can tell it's an American writer, just based on Bond and M's dialogue. Can also tell he's a bigger fan of the movies than the novels, which I would say was the reverse with Ellis

Spot on. 

i too am giving it a chance.  Especially since Geoff Johns is not involved in the writing or editing of it.  If he were involved , it would be sure to be incomprehensible.
