Oh wow! I can hardly believe it's been over 30 years since the live-action City Hunter graced the screen. I need to pull that out of cold storage and raise a toast the the late Mr. Norton.

I first discovered him in the 1998 FMV Adventure game Tex Murphy: Overseer and became an immediate fan. The second place I saw him was in City Hunter! R.I.P Richard.

I can at least thank Richard Norton for keeping ABBA both safe (as a bodyguard) and fit (as a fitness trainer).

RIP

I must confess,I'm not that familiar with Richard Norton. I haven't seen a lot of his stuff. About the only time I ever really saw him was in a direct-to-video film called "Best of the Martial Art Films" which came out in the 1990's. I had no idea he was ever in Hollywood to begin with.

RIP,Mr. Norton. I may not have been as familiar with you as others have been,but you deserve this,nonetheless. Sad
