7. Hugo Drax
Not the movie version so much (though the movie Drax is noteworthy for presiding over the pinnacle of Moore-era excess) but the original depiction of Drax in Flemings novel Moonraker earns his place in history by virtue of having one of the most absurdly awesome origin stories ever. As the novels action unfolds, it transpires that Mr. Drax, an English World War Two veteran and successful businessman in charge of Britains future missile defence, is actually a
German special commando and fanatical Nazi, who has been impersonating a British soldier for years, awaiting the perfect opportunity to rain down fiery destruction on the country he despises and avenge his fallen Reich. Its the sort of National Socialist silliness that you just cant get away with any more.
