GAME OF THE NAME - "BROTHER LOVE" TWICE UPON A TIME......




THE LOVE AFFAIR:

Solo investigates Brother Love, a supposed religious revivalist. In reality, Brother Love heads up a Thrush operation which has secured the services of scientists from both sides of the Iron Curtain. Brother Love is developing an atomic-powered spaceship. Solo has more than enough incentive to smash Brother Love. The religious figure abducted a woman graduate student who was sitting in a seat intended for a scientist Brother Love was courting. The student was kidnapped while with Solo. Second, Kuryakin is injured by a grenade while following the abducted Solo.

Brother Love - as played by Eddie Albert - may have found inspiration for his alias from a Bible-thumping preacher near Stockton, California, in the 1870s......
