The James Bond Files ~ Peter Lorenz
 In May 2023, on his radio program Flashback, which aired online over the internet radio station KSAV, Wesley Britton continued a “James Bond Avalanche” to celebrate the 70 years of Agent 007. Featured were several authors, actors, behind-the-scenes folks, and fans of the world of James Bond. The series continued on Monday, May 8, 2023, with an interview with German art collector Peter Lorenz. He dives into what you can find at his long-running Illustrated 007: The Art of James Bond blog and how that archive grew from international movie posters and designs to book covers to . . . well, you’ll just have to tune in to hear about the visuals of the 007 universe from the beginning to now . . . Also on the program was former comics editor Chris Ryall, who discussed how he brought the Star Trek franchise to IDW publishing. He shares how he helped shape an all-Klingon comic, brought original Star Trek scriptwriter Dorothy Fontana to the world of comics, and especially how he helped heal the decades long rift between Paramount Pictures and sci-fi author Harlen Ellison when Chris edited Harlen’s long-suppressed original version of “City on the Edge of Forever.” Plus a few more nuggets Star Trek fans will dig!
