| Bob Howard is the Laundry's everyman, who's worked his way up from lowly tech-support guy to supernatural superspy, thanks to a series of happy and not-so-happy accidents. |
| Trained in intelligence and special forces, the superspy always used the latest gadgets, thwarted Soviet agents, brought international gangsters to justice, and inevitably bedded a beautiful woman. |
| In Dr. No, Bond's first appearance as an international superspy, he leans next to a Red Stripe while in a Jamaican bar. |
| Well, at least they look good, especially after escaping from the clutches of the superspy baddies. |
