Staying with comics, you don't have to look very far to find some just terrible renderings of characters... especially when combined with that most odd of decades, the 1970's. Case in point courtesy of Youtube: the made for T.V. Movie (a pilot for a, thankfully, not picked-up series) Dr. Strange. Yes, that's Jessica Walter, matriarch of the Bluth family, yes, making it through this mishmash was painful. Yup, it had precious little to do with the comic source material, uh-huh, it was Clyde Kusatsu playing 'Wong' but no, its fine, no one will notice that he's of Japanese descent playing someone from China... yeah, 70's plus porn 'stache should equal excellent... what went wrong?
Funny I should ask, because the next offerings will combine lots of questionable influences to create what Dave Bowman would call, "Something wonderful."
