Seriously, how did I not know until today that the great Lance Henriksen was in “Close Encounters of the Third Kind?”
After having seen the movie dozens of times, I watched it on TCM today and was startled to see the favorite from “Aliens” and “Millennium” on screen near the end, in the Devil’s Tower sequence.
He’s even in the credits!
Nice to see you, Lance!
This is the worst. Darwyn Cooke is gone.
The artist and writer, whose work was somehow nostalgic and innovative at the same time, has passed away after a battle with cancer.
Cooke wrote and drew comics and covers for characters like Catwoman and the Spirit, but my favorite of his work was “New Frontier,” his “retelling” of the origin of the Justice League in the 1940s and 1950s.
He was a huge talent and is greatly missed.
Hell yeah.
