Big Red Grant fan here, especially his literary incarnation. Always seemed the most psychotic character Fleming ever came up with. (Trip, I'd love to hear your thoughts on FRWL, as it's my second favorite of the original novels!) I'd be all for a PTS focusing on a baddie, hopefully one so out of sync that even his employer can't handle him!

I'll definitely let you know what my thoughts are on FRWL - I must say, so far, so good and I'm just now getting to the second half of the novel!
A henchman that's on a short leash of the villain could be awesome: so insane that even his employer's afraid of him. Only drawback would be the inevitable comparisons to TDKR's Bane (which is the only villain in recent memory that's on that level).
