The sadism of the main character (who is a former french paratroper rather than a CIA operative) is quite . . . well I think you should just read it.

A sadistic Frenchman?
That makes me chuckle.

Yeah! he forces you to eat snails and drink the wrong wines!
Ok, ok, I apologize to the French. That was a cheap shot.

But, yea, I was more thinking of Marque de Sade, from whence the word
sadism comes.

If I recall correctly, we're talking one of the French Paras involved in supressing the Algerian independance movement.
If you know your history, that should make you shudder.

Sadism and philosophy. Two things that shouldn't mix this well. Written and drawn by the friend of a friend of mine.
Sorry, I got nuthin' else...

If you're referring to the current page of that comic, that's not an evil double... He's having a conversation with his inner sadist, so to speak. It's just the artist's way of depicting the whole "inner dialogue" thing.
