Bonding with Spies

Congratulations to The Spy Command, which today turns 10 years old. I know how much work goes into keeping a blog active and interesting for even a few years, so a decade’s work is nothing to sneeze at.

As managing editor Bill Koenig recalls, The Spy Command was inaugurated in 2008 as The HMSS Weblog, an offshoot of the James Bond-obsessed Webzine Her Majesty’s Secret Servant (founded in 1997). By the next year, Koenig was the blog’s primary contributor, and in 2014, Her Majesty’s Secret Servant folded up shop. The blog was rechristened The Spy Command in February 2015. It remains one of the best online sources of information about Agent 007, though Koenig also writes occasionally about The Man from U.N.C.L.E. and Hawaii Five-O, two TV shows in which he’s particularly interested.

If you aren’t already a loyal follower of The Spy Command, it’s definitely time you became one.
