Jason's Gallery - In Memoriam: Norm Spencer


No sooner after Chadwick Boseman's passing, another hero passes on, especially one who we grew up with in the 90s, especially with the 90s X-Men cartoon and no voice actor defined a generation around that time than Norm Spencer. Spencer did many voices like Drax the Destroyer, Hades, Billy Blazes from Rescue Heroes, but the one voice he did is what made him a household name, the voice of Cyclops from the 90s X-Men cartoon, along with the Capcom fighting games like X-Men: Children of the Atom and X-Men vs. Street Fighter. Wolverine may have been the face of the X-Men, but Scott Summers himself is, and always will be, the heart of the team. And through Norm Spencer's voice (through comics, cartoons and in our thoughts), I believe it wholeheartedly. Cyclops is a born leader, just like Captain America. And his determination and inspiration is why he is my favorite of all the X-Men. Godspeed, good sir. And as you always say:

"DREAMS DON'T DIE!"


Norman "Norm" Spencer
