Anthony Nicholas Twin is an Irish photographer that gains mild superhuman powers after being hit by an atomic bond, increasing his senses, speed, and endurance. He's blackmailed into doing intelligence work by a gay germaphobe Arnold Benedict while he tries to care for his mentally disabled daughter October.

In this installment, Twin's plane makes an emergency landing in Albania, while coincidentally Benedict is there to wheel a deal. The Albanian president's femme fatale wife is training political dissidents for the Olympics, using a mad scientist with robotic legs and his experiments in drugs and mind control to create super athletes.

Twin is forced to compete in games patterned after the labors of Hercules, and later has to escape from an elaborate underground complex.

TNT is brought to Albania where he is forced to compete in the Hercules games, really messed up takes on the labours of Hercules. He has to satisfy the woman in charge and face off against a legless doctor using fear to condition athletes and a dictator who only wants his wife to sleep with men that look like Stalin.
Typical bonkos stuff here with super invincible TNT having to satisfy 11 women in a row, hold his breath for 10 minutes, survive death traps, and kill lot of bad guys. It’s another weird and disturbing entry in this outlandish series that is worth checking out if you like WTF stuff.

Yikes. This is some crazy, vile, antisocial, fetishistic exploitation stuff.

TNT should hang out with Golgo.

And I'm going to have to collect this whole series.
