    Michael Pataki RIP

    Animation News Discussion Cartoon Community - toonzone news

    This guy had some serious nerd cred. Trek, Spider-Man, Batman...the list goes on and on. Always good for the gruff character. I always think of him as Count Malachi from Happy Days though...

    He was a tremendous character actor. Just recently watched an episode of "A Man Called Sloane" where he was a bluebeard type who killed people with his pipe organ. Despite the goofiness of the role, he made it work.

          I'll always remember him as Count Malachi on Happy Days and .... his famous Star Trek line - the Enterprise should be hauled away AS garbage

          RIP

                It was from the Pinky Tuscadero cycle of episodes.

                His Captain Barbera on Spider-Man was much gruffer than their Jameson.

                    I thought I was the only person who remembered that show. Robert Conrad FTW. As a kid I thought Torque was the coolest thing going.
