I bring sad news for Thundercats fans.
Just a day after we lost Hiromi Tsuru (voice of the original Japanese Bulma),we lost Earle Hyman. He passed away at his home in Englewood,NJ. He was 91.
Hyman is best known for his role as Cliff Huxtable's dad,Russell,on The Cosby Show (still love that show). However,that wasn't Only Iconic role he played. He was also Panthro from the Original Thundercats.
Those were the 2 roles that made this man Legendary. Panthro was one of my favorite Thundercats and whenever I envision the character's voice,it'll always be Earle Hyman's.
Kevin Michael Richardson was the voice of Panthro on the 2011 Thundercats series,but,to most of us,Hyman was the Original and Best.
Rest Easy,Panthro. You're with Jesus and Jaga now.
R.I.P.
Earle Hyman
October 11th,1926 - November 17th,2017
