Biography
Facing Mr Steelman
After an army hired by Mr Steelman attempted to storm Creighton-Ward Manor to steal some dangerous Luthvian blueprints originally stolen by Lady Penelope, she planned for Roger to enter the premises at the same time, knock out Parker, and take the plans which he was guarding. The blueprints were impregnated with a "special material", they could only be disposed of by bombarding them with radioactive Uranium G21 particles. As such, Roger drove his car to the Dunwell Atomic Research Station and was able to make his way to the reactor core to destroy them. Although he had saved the world, Roger was pursued by Gardoni and Luigi who rammed him off the road and, after failing to locate the plans, captured him and took him to Steelman's base in Mount Vesuvius. On the way, he activated a homing device which allowed Penelope and Parker to track him down. Steelman proclaimed that he would make Roger tell him about the blueprints with the "wonders of science and technology" as he was strapped into a machine. However, Lady Penelope and Parker arrived before the machine could be operated and they gained the upper-hand when toxic gas secreted in her lipstick was released, a luxury afforded to her as a last wish before her execution. Gardoni managed to fire a shot to injure Roger but the threat was neutralised when she deployed her explosive handbag, consuming the base with lava. After making it to the surface, Roger was taken to hospital while Penelope and Parker returned to England. (COMIC: Mr. Steelman [+]Loading...["Mr. Steelman (comic story)"])

Battling Bereznik
In Paris, Roger discovered that the Bereznik agent Hermutt Clinger was planning to assassinate the World Government Defence Minister who was to drive in a procession with the French President. He contacted Lady Penelope and told her of the conspiracy but the transmission was cut before he could complete his briefing, leading to her and Parker travelling to France to help. In fact, he had been captured by Clinger, who attempted to frame him for the assassination, as well as his subsequent suicide. Just as the procession came into view, Lady Penelope and Parker stormed into the hideout, having worked out its location and picked the lock, rescuing Roger after Parker pushed Clinger over the balcony. However, Clinger survived and chased FAB 1 in his car until Parker deployed the oil slip. Upon inspecting the crash site, Clinger shot Penelope. Roger quickly returned fire and killed him in response but Penelope had been seriously wounded. He and Parker carried her back to FAB 1 and took her to the Reinstat Clinic, as specially requested by Penelope, where Doctor Reinstat treated her for her injuries. She recovered well and the trio of special agents returned to Monte Carlo and rode FAB 2 back to England. (COMIC: The Assassination Threat)
