Ivan Klimatovich, also known as The Dead Communist, wasn't as bad a guy as his nickname would make you think he was. He was a World War I veteran, and a supporter of Democracy in Russia, before Stalin took full control Vandal Savage became a Commie. In fact, he was just living at home, trying to make an honest living when the CIA contracted him to infiltrate Lenin's army. If he didn't, his wife would be killed. Instead, it turned out the mother of his two children had set him up so she could be Stalin's bitch. He was cut in half at the midsection, and, still not dead, shot through the skull.
