The Anonymous Widower

The British Superhero

James Bond is everywhere at the moment.

Why is James the archetypal British superhero, whereas those created on the other side of the Atlantic are very often non-human?

I can’t think of a British superhero in the style of Superman say, but going back to John Buchan‘s, Richard Hannay and before, there have been quite a few literary characters in the style of Bond.
