Thanks Dennis. But I think Brad's comic-book view of the world is way more infantile than the James Bond level. I think the Super Friends would be more appropriate. Brad could join as the Incredible Floating Gasbag. Or what was that cartoon in the 70s about the babies with superpowers? "Take that, Stalin, you big meany!" Maybe Stalin will extrude a pseudopod and squish him.

Chris Doss:

"Wait, I forget, in the West, Stalin = evil. Anybody associated with Stalin was evil too. Stalin lived in a secret Fortress of Evil surrounded by a moat with crocodiles and laser towers to pick off starving peasants. Whilst sitting on his throne of human skulls, he would make personal phone calls to Paul Sweezy, Lex Luthor and mighty Cthulhu who waits sleeping in R'lyeh in order to better coordinate their plans for murderous world domination, when the stars are right."

Very funny, Chris (seriously!). But you left out James Bond's various attempts to unseat Uncle Joe. I think, ultimately, it was Roger Moore as The Saint who got rid of him, but I'd have to look it up in my "TV Land Guide to History."
