You were close:  DOC SAVAGE:  HIS APOCALYPTIC LIFE by Philip José Farmer. I
started reading the books about the time the '76 movie came out, in my teens -
real target audience age group, if not quite the right decade.  My anachronism
takes many forms, after all.

You may laugh.  I worked my persona story into Farmer's geneology chart from the
very beginning.  Compare my armory with that found in Fleming's novel ON HER
MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE and figger it out.
