Dynamite Entertainment Announces Paul Tobin on the Bionic Woman

Get ready for some more bionic action beginning in March.

Last Summer Dynamite Entertainment launched the BIONIC MAN comic. From the first announcement of that title, there has been mention of a BIONIC WOMAN series as well. Dynamite has now unveiled their plans for the upcoming title.

Beginning in March, the new series will be written by Paul Tobin with art by Leno Carvalho (and Paul Renaud will provide the cover). Jaime Sommers will find herself in Paris hot on the trail of "The Mission," a collection of "insanely high-priced surgeons who've been murdering OSI's bionic prototypes in order to provide a new life for billionaire patients."

Paul Tobin said the following:

It's a big booming blast of a look at the woman behind the bionics…a chance for myself and Jaime Sommers to team up, cut loose, knock some things around and then high-five when the dust is still settling.

This is the first time Tobin has worked with Dynamite Entertainment. If you've been reading BIONIC MAN, you won't want to pass on this new title. Check out these preview pages.

Cool... this could be interesting

Remember the Bionic Woman tv show.. the one with the amazing pilot but the rest of the show was terrible.. just like the walking dead... such a waste

I haven't read any of the Bionic stuff, I'm considering getting the Bionic Man though I'm not sure yet.

I wasn't impressed by Bionic Man comic book, I doubt Bionic Woman could be better.

I loved the Six Million Dollar Man and the Bionic Woman as a kid. Bionic man is not that good. Could be becouse of Smiths writing but as seems the case with all books i pick up from Dynamite the iidea is better then what we get. the Kirby and Project Superpowers perfect examples. I'll give this shot but not holding my breath.

Could be good! Art is stunning. I'm always interested in the stuff Dynamite spins out to us as fans so I'll take a look at this next chance I get.

Is this the same as the tv show?

I think I am going to give this series a shot and pick up the first issue. I like Paul Tobin as a writer and love the art that has been shown in the preview. On top of all that I did enjoy the old Bionic Woman series and the remake that had 13 episodes.
