COBRAS add Illustrated 007 to ranks

James Bond Argentine Comic from Illustrated 007

I’m pleased to announce that Peter of the blog Illustrated 007 has accepted membership into the COBRAS (would Coalition of Bloggers Ruminating About Spies make you happier?). Peter is a sort of curator of Bond imagery, amassing a collection both varied and expansive. A look at the categories on his site will give you an idea about the amazing sorts of things that he’s gathered.

So head on over to Illustrated 007…but maybe set aside a few hours first!

About

Mister 8 is a blog about secret agents, spies, international crime-fighters and other characters and tropes of spy fiction, and an occasional comic featuring the titular Mister 8 and his work for DOS. This blog is published as often as the author can muster the energy to do so, and content ranges widely from talk of TV shows and movies, to scans of out-of-print comics, to tabs and chords from the great spy themes.

We welcome any feedback, either via the comments section of each post, or through our contact page!
