Ian Fleming's literary hero also known as 007 is which character?

• A. Jason Bourne
• B. Harry Palmer
• C. James Bond
• D. Ethan Hunt

Answer: (C)

James Bond is the literary hero created by Ian Fleming who is also known by the code number 007. In Fleming’s novels, Bond is a British secret agent working for MI6, with the famous “00” designation reflecting his license to kill. That combination—Fleming’s creator and the 007 alias—makes him the best match for this clue.

The other names come from different authors or media: Jason Bourne is from Robert Ludlum’s spy thrillers, Harry Palmer is from Len Deighton’s works, and Ethan Hunt belongs to the Mission: Impossible film series.
