Pulp Hero for Today IV
Bonov was born in the heart of Russia in the year of 1933. At the age of three, his family moved
to New York City, America, and his father opened a pawnshop on the lower east side. Growing up
on a pawnshop, he was taught to tell the value of items and how to haggle for the best price.
Bonov was always very odd, very tall and skinny, and his hair turned silver by the time he was
ten. He decided at an early age that he wouldn’t stoop to merely making a lousy living at loaning
money like his father. Unfortunately, there was no way he could get a college degree. Desperate for
a chance to make it, he turned to the street. There, he found he had a natural talent in the
confidence game.
In the early 50’s his father became homesick for Mother Russia, and moved the family back
there. Shortly after his homecoming, Bonov was drafted into the Soviet Army. As a conman, he
made his way up the ranks to staff sergeant by the time his first hitch was up. After his second hitch,
he was recruited be the KGB and trained to by a spy.
After his training, he was sent back to New York under the cover of a defector. Back in New
York, he soon forgot about mother Russia and within a week he had a thriving black market business
going. Over time he had built up contact on both sides of the law around the world. Little has
changed for him now that the USSR has dissolved.
