Condorman is a 1981 comedy/adventure film from Walt Disney Productions starring Michael Crawford.
"Suggested" by Robert Sheckley's The Game of X, Condorman follows comic book illustrator Woody Wilkins who is recruited by his friend Harry, a CIA agent, to handle a civilian paper swap with a beautiful female Soviet spy named Natalia. After falling in love with Natalia, Woody is specifically requested when she decides to defect to the West. Donning the persona of his comic strip character "Condorman", and with the aid of a wide array of gadgets and vehicles (such as a 'Condormobile'), specially created by the CIA, Woody launches on an adventure to rescue Natalia and keep her from the clutches of her enemies, Krokov and Morovich.
