MANTIS

Contributed by: The Complete James Bond Movie Encyclopedia by Steven Jay Rubin

Sophisticated deep-sea diving suit worn by a henchman of Kristatos (JULIAN GLOVER) in For Your Eyes Only. The Mantis Man was portrayed by actor Graham Hawkes. Ordered to intercept Bond (ROGER MOORE) and Melina (CAROLE BOUQUET) as they dive on the St. Georges wreck in search of the missing ATAC computer, the Mantis Man breaks into the St. Georges‘s communications room and gives 007 plenty of trouble until Bond takes the self-destruct mechanism from the ATAC and attaches it to the Mantis. As Bond and Melina paddle back to their Neptune submarine, the Mantis is blown to kingdom come.
