Greg Finley, a prolific voiceover actor whose many credits include animated fare like Robotech and live-action projects including The X-Files and Men at Work II, died peacefully February 1 of heart-related causes while on vacation at a family member’s home in Phoenix, Arizona. He was 76.

His death was announced by his son Guy Finley.

A voiceover actor with scores of credits stretching back to the 1980s, Finley (occasionally credited under the name Guy Garrett) had by that time already begun his show business career as an on-screen actor with small roles in episodes of, among others, Kolchak: The Night Stalker (1975) and, in 1981, Flo and The Misadventures of Sheriff Lobo.

His voice work began when fellow Beverly Hills High School alum Paul Rabwin, a producer on CHiPs, invited him to provide Adr on that series. . He’d soon...

Veteran actor Richard Moll has passed away.

Per THR, it was reported that Moll died on Thursday at his Big Bear Lake, California home. The actor's death was confirmed by his publicist, though additional information, such as a cause, haven't been revealed. Moll was 80 years old.

Moll was born on Jan. 13, 1943, in Pasadena, California. An imposing figure standing at 6'8", Moll has had very memorable roles. He launched his acting career in the late 1970s, appearing as the religious figure Joseph Smith in the classic film Brigham. He would go on to appear in dozens of films from there on out, which includes playing the Abominable Snowman in Ringo Starr's Caveman; an undead veteran in the hit horror film House; and the Hell House ghost in the horror-comedy Scary Movie 2. Some of his other many film roles include The Sword and the Sorcerer, Night Train to Terror, Sidekicks, The Flintstones,...

Robert Swan, an actor familiar from sometimes brief but noticeable roles in Hoosiers, Rudy, The Untouchables and The Babe, died of cancer today at his home in Rolling Prairie, Indiana. He was 78.

His death was announced by his friend Betty Hoeffner in a Facebook post.

Perhaps best known for his role as an assistant to Gene Hackman’s high school basketball coach in director David Anspaugh’s 1986 sports drama Hoosiers, Swan also featured as a priest in Anspaugh’s 1993 Rudy starring Sean Astin.

Making his feature debut portraying a stagehand in 1980’s Somewhere in Time, Swan frequently appeared on both TV and in film over the next two decades, with roles in the 1984 TV-movie The Dollmaker starring Jane Fonda and in series including All My Children, The Misadventures of Sheriff Lobo, Walking Tall, The Twilight Zone and Spencer For Hire.

On the big screen, he portrayed a biker in Doctor Detroit...

Nicolas Coster, the soap opera stalwart who starred on Another World, Santa Barbara and All My Children and appeared in such films as All the President’s Men, Reds and Stir Crazy, has died. He was 89.

Coster died Monday in a hospital in Florida, his daughter Dinneen Coster announced on Facebook.

“Please remember him as a great artist,” she wrote. “He was an actor’s actor! I will always be inspired by him and know how lucky I am to have such a great father!!

A familiar character actor who often portrayed officious types, Coster played chief of detectives J.E. Carson on The Misadventures of Sheriff Lobo and later recurred as the millionaire father of Lisa Whelchel’s Blair Warner on another 1980’s NBC sitcom, The Facts of Life.

He appeared often on Broadway, and in his 1961 debut, he understudied for Lawrence Olivier as Henry II in Becket. Two decades later,...

Frank Lupo, the TV writer-producer who was a frequent collaborator with Stephen J. Cannell in the 1980s on such high-octane dramas as “The A-Team,” “Hunter” and “Wiseguy,” has died. He was 66.

Lupo died Feb. 18 at his home in Florida, according to his sister, Linda Joy Sullivan.

Lupo’s work in TV took off in the late 1970s when he wrote for such series as “Battlestar Galactica,” “Magnum, P.I.,” “B.J. and the Bear” and “The Misadventures of Sheriff Lobo.”

Lupo worked on the Universal Television lot in the same era as Cannell, the prolific showrunner behind “The Rockford Files” and “Baretta.” Lupo wrote several episodes of Cannell’s ABC dramedy “The Greatest American Hero.”

Lupo and Cannell then co-created “The A-Team,” the action-drama with touches of comedy that became a massive hit for NBC in 1983. Cannell, who died in 2010, famously took the bold step of launching his own independent production banner on the back of “A-Team.

Frank Lupo, the partner of Stephen J. Cannell on many popular 1980s action shows, died Feb. 17 at his home in Florida, according to his sister and social media. He was 66-years-old and no cause of death was given.

Lupo was part of the creative engine that served up the crime drama television shows The A-Team, Hunter, and Wiseguy. He was also a writer and executive producer on the first season of CBS’ Walker, Texas Ranger.

Born in New York City, Lupo met Cannell at Universal Television in Los Angeles. He began as a writer, penning episodes of ABC’s Battlestar Galactica and NBC’s B.J. and the Bear before joining forces with Cannell in 1981 on the ABC series The Greatest American Hero.

Lupo and Cannell went on to create NBC’s The A-Team in 1983, NBC’s Hunter in 1984, NBC’s Riptide, which began in 1984, and CBS’ Wiseguy in 1987.

If we're honest, the 70s was the last decade that produced a number of great new comic book characters. Sure, the 80s had some notable new faces like She-Hulk, Lobo and Booster Gold but the 70s churned out the likes of Big Barda, The Forever People, The New Gods, Swamp Thing, Luke Cage, Ghost Rider, Iron Fist, Wolverine, Punisher, Colossus, Storm, Power Girl and a host of others. When we make our way to the 90s the number of new characters that stuck tapers off dramatically with the highlights being Spawn, Hellboy and War Machine. Looking at the last decade, there are some fresh faces full of potential that may not be A-listers today but are poised to become the stars of tomorrow. Which creation of the 2000s do you think will go on to achieve A-list status? Sentry Created in 2000 by Paul Jenkins and Jae Lee, the Superman reminiscent...

Once again, a look into the future, with some very interesting looks at the past, including the reprinting of a comic that was never released in America in the first place, the infamous Elseworlds 80 Page Giant that was pulped because of concerns about Superman’s babysitter.

And of course, a whole lot of #3 issues, which is traditionally the issue where Spider-Man guest stars.

Shall we? Surely!

As usual, spoilers may lurk beyond this point.

Having seemingly given up directing original works when his 2008 crime film Rock ‘n’ Rolla continued a confused run of flops, Guy Ritchie has in the past few years moved on to the idea of remakes & adaptations. Better to direct someone elses work than come up with his own ideas, etc, and it’s clearly working for him. His Sherlock Holmes movie is the best thing he’s made in ten years and of course he has a sequel to it coming this Christmas and for the first time in a while, he is making movies people care to see.

To further his new ‘non-original’ mantra, Ritchie’s also been flirting with the idea of remaking The Dirty Dozen, directing a new King Arthur movie and also adapting a few comic book characters such as Sgt. Rock and Lobo and now comes word that he is considering a remake of The Cannonball Run,...

With Christmas coming up in just a few short days, sightings of Santa Claus have been increasing quite a bit lately — and that goes for the comics world, too. While Santa doesn’t appear in as many comics as he did in the Golden or Silver Age, there are still a few modern cameos we fondly remember.

Here are five of our favorite Santa Claus comic book stories of all time — each of them featuring good ol' Saint Nick and a supporting cast of characters from around the comics world.

Fables # 56
