* MagnificentBastard: [[ClockKing Charlie Wax]] is a [[LargeHam boisterous]] but highly effective CIA assassin who has been tasked to destroy a jihadist cell in Paris with his tag-along partner Reese. Wax smuggles his favorite gun through French customs and immediately carves a bloody path through the French underworld, willing to use wildly illegal means to achieve his goals while [[{{Troll}} deliberately messing with his partner]] by forcing him to carry around and snort cocaine and keeping him in the dark about their ultimate mission. Wax later executes a [[WouldHitAGirl female terrorist]] in cold blood and with Reese's help ultimately secures American interests abroad.
