I didn’t realize he directed the X-Men cartoon.

RIP

Just to be fair, I didn't even know he was involved with the ADR/dub directing of several anime so that is significant for me as a person that not only grew up on X-Men: TAS, but also as an anime fan too.

Assuming X-Men '97's 2nd season is in full swing production, I hope the director for that show remember to have a end of episode for the 1st episode for 2nd season to be dedicated and in memory of Dan Hennessey. His death would effect the casts of X-Men '97 given that most of the cast of X-Men: TAS reprised their roles for the show, they got to have to an episode dedicated and in memory for him.

I knew him for his Western animation work but I never knew how involved he was in anime.

RIP Dan Hennessy. Thank you for all the wonderful characters you portrayed and the dubs you directed.

Oh man. I remember Dan Hennessey. I knew him best when he played Brave Heart Lion on the old "Care Bears" series that was done by Nelvana. I have no idea that he did any anime dubs. That surprised me. Nevertheless,it's sad he's gone.

RIP,Mr. Hennessey. You'll be missed greatly. Sad

I know him from his work as Thomson (without a P) from Nelvans’s Tintin cartoon, which was a big part of my childhood. Rest in peace, good sir.
