In reply to Christopher. I think originally they were supposed to be the same character but the actor who played Manheim in Identity was arrested for assault or something and hasn't worked much since...

The Captain America thing mainly got Nazis killed. Back in the 40s, every 3 Nazis counted as the opposite of getting a regular person killed.

Program was an astounding net win. The followups, less so.

Didn’t the Captain America thing get a bunch of people killed, too?

If you’re a scientist and you hear “Super Soldier”, you should just walk away.

I’m so happy you also like to write “Anyway!”

In reply to Josh. Yeah, I actually wondered if they were meant to be the same character (even though they were played by different actors), as I think they were both German, and it would make a lot of sense if it was the same agent in both movies. But I also checked at some point, and saw they had different names, so, not sure what happened to the dude who killed Conklin. Maybe the agency had him put down with another toaster bomb.

I’d always assumed that the guy who shot Chris Cooper at the end of Identity was the same agent who Bourne stangled and toaster bombed. Looking up the wiki plots it says they were named Manheim and Jarda respectively. This messes with my whole Bourne worldview.

THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE. AND SEVERAL OTHERS.

(not watched the fourth film so that’s as far as I can read without spoily spoilers. Bums.)
