Brock Samson vs. The Mummy

Cartoon Network
Part Cherokee, part Swedish, and 100-percent redblooded American, Brock is a hulking, brooding man of few words and profound mystery. A downscale James Bond officially employed by an unknown branch of our government’s secret service, Brock was assigned to protect the Venture family a decade ago – and then promptly forgotten about. He barely tolerates the uptight and neurotic Dr. Venture, but the job gives Brock the opportunity to travel to exotic locations, meet interesting people and sleep with them – or kill them. He reacts to every threat with swift, silent, excessive brutality – striking first and usually not even bothering with questions later. He is a man of action – a jack-of-all-trades whose duties at the Venture compound extend beyond mere protection to include piloting the X-1 supersonic jet plane, repairing H.E.L.P.eR. and being all but a surrogate father to the Venture brothers. Or at least a big brother. A very big brother.
