"Agent X-1 is the silent assassin of the Agency. His smoothness is unlike any I have ever seen. He let's things happen as they come along instead of having to force them like the rest of us. With a greasy head of hair and a comfortable pair of pants, Daniel's skill is a valuable notch in the belt of Stereo." --Clint
