Personal Security Specialists
Of course, more than one big, hulking brute of a P.I. (or even some not so big and bulky ones) have taken on bodyguard work, but there are some eyes who seem to specialize in it–although it’s surprising how many of them prefer almost any euphemisms rather than simply “bodyguard.” It’s also worth noting that there seem to be an increasing number of these guys popping up over the last few years, including in comics.
