A thin and tepid pastiche/metafiction stew wherein Matt Kindt explains the changing faces of James Bond, and then teams him up with John McClane from Die Hard, a woman driving KITT from Knight Rider, and an Asian variation on Jessica Fletcher from Murder She Wrote. It's a 1980s League of Extraordinary Gentlemen -- which Kindt cites as an influence along with the more recent Black Hammer in his afterword/interview -- with the all '80s cheese you can stomach. (
