Flandry And Bond

Dominic Flandry is definitely not an sf James Bond imitation because Flandry was published first, in 1951 as against 1953, but are they comparable as spy series? I think not. Flandry is primarily sf. The many differences far outweigh any similarities. If anything, Flandry resembles a space Hornblower because he rises through naval ranks and even spends some time at sea in his first instalment.

Bond's setting is the contemporary world at the time of writing whereas Flandry's is a fantastic and arguably impossible scenario of faster than light interstellar travel and many intelligent species. 

Bond's Enemies

Russia (a French trade unionist, SMERSH, GRU, KGB)

Nazis left over from the (still recent) War

North American gangsters (Spangled Mob, Hoods' Congress, a Canadian gang)

international organized crime (SPECTRE, Blofeld)

(Once, the KGB hires SPECTRE which sends an ex-Gestapo man to work with the Canadian gang.)

Flandry's Enemies

Merseia

barbarians

The only resemblance here is that Merseia operates like Cold War Russia.

When Bond has to operate in Japan, that is a bit like being on another planet! You Only Live Twice, like Ensign Flandry, becomes in part a fictional travelogue.
