I just saw Patrick McGoohan in an old Disney movie, “Three Lives of Thomasina” I would never have watched it except it happened to be on the channel I was watching

I was surprised how good it was and McGoohan was a great actor even back then.

I was sorry to hear about Ramen Girl. Poor thing.

Not an actor, but Paul Harvey died this year. Of course, Brittany Murphy died a couple of days ago.

Wow! Edward Woodward passed away. I highly reccommend the series “Callan” he starred in. They don’t make television like that anymore.

Thanks for the list. It does remind us to make the best of life.
While I am about as far as one can be from being a celebrity groupie, at age 65, I have seen many greats pass.
The Rat Pack comes to mind.
A few on this list are ones that I have never heard of :(

I had never heard of the girl that died last week, and have even forgotten her name now. Murphy?

By co-incidence, on January 14, I uploaded this comic. (The implication was that the character, "Number 2", which had previously appeared, running the Village, was a Cheney stand-in.)

I wound up putting this one up the following day just because of the co-incidence.

And then I had to put this one because both Fantasy Island and Khan were part of growing up.

I don't go out of my way to include famous deaths in my comic (and a co-worker asked me not to make any comics about him...), but some of them were part of growing up and meant something to me -- and I could work it into the comic's theme.

One last one: Pie in the Face.

[Revolting cat!]

Never heard of any of them!

[Arrowhead1952]

I really wish that one of my very favorite actresses would have had a few days in the news if that pervert mj had not died the same day.

Not an 'actor' but quite a 'character':

Ormly Gumfudgin, aka, Clarence "Googy" Locke, friend of many actors, Hollywood columnist, chili cookoff organizer, Bazooka player extraordinaire and all around interesting personality.
