Sir Austin Danger Powers, KBE, is a fictional character from the Austin Powers series of films. He first appeared in Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (1997) and is portrayed by Mike Myers. Apart from being a parody of James Bond, Austin Powers also represents the archetypal 1960s mod, with his constant advocacy for free love, his use of obscure impressions and his clothing style (including crushed velvet suits and Beatle boots, which is also a costume George Lazenby's Bond wore), although the womanizing side of him could be said to neatly combine his 1960s side with his James Bond template in itself.

With his flamboyant ways and never-changing dress-sense, he is deliberately made to stick out from his surroundings – though invariably escaping detection when disguised – particularly when he talks about things that would have had no place in the 1990s. In the many instances he takes off his clothes, he is revealed to have a very hairy chest. Much of his attitude toward relationships could be a parody of Bond's lack of reflection with regard to the loss of a woman.

For example, after partner Vanessa Kensington is revealed to be a fembot and explodes on their honeymoon, Austin mourns at first, then joyously exclaims, "Wait a tick ...that means I'm single again!Oh, behave!" and proceeds to dance through the hotel in the nude.

Some of his abilities include a kind of hypnosis he learned from a magician, "a chaste man, who died from a disease that had all the hallmarks of syphilis."
