REX TANNER AND THE SWORD OF DAMOCLES
When evil N***s threaten to sabotage the 1936 Summer Olympics, America's pride rests in the hands of race car driver Rex Tanner and his Omnidial: a mysterious device that imbues him with temporary super powers! ...when it works. Synopsis: We meet REX TANNER, race car driver, in 1935 on a disastrous mission to save scientist PENELOPE MULGREW from the clutches
of an evil N**i geneticist, which has
resulted in his capture. Rex effects their escape using the OMNIDIAL: a mysterious device permanently grafted to his skin which imbues Rex with temporary super-powers...when it works. The pair manage to pull off a harrowing escape. Months later, Rex is approached again by his enigmatic employers with a new mission: American Olympians are turning up shriveled and weak, apparently drained of muscle. Rex, Penelope, and his pit man and sidekick MIKHAIL "MICK" GOLDSTEIN are asked to travel to the site of the Olympics to investigate. Though at first reluctant, upon learning of the British
agent MI6 has assigned to the same case, Rex enthusiastically accepts. At a welcoming party, Rex and Penelope spy the scheming CHIN WU-XIAN and henchman BARON HELMUT VON KRIEGER, who are apparently pressuring the party's host into
participation in underhanded dealings. They also meet MI6's agent: ALEXANDER TANNER, Rex's older, smarter, handsomer brother, with whom Rex shares a bitter, life-long sibling rivalry. Rex's bitterness is exacerbated when he discovers that his brother's new flame is MARIEL ADELE, Rex's first girlfriend. The brother's put aside their rivalry when an attack occurs at the party, and another American Olympian is discovered emaciated. After an unsuccessful attempt to apprehend the villains
responsible, Rex concedes that perhaps the mission is too big for one man and that he may need to team up with his brother, rather than compete with him.
