My Take
Steve Blum's voice is one I'd know anywhere, even if I couldn't tell you it was his. That deep, gravelly delivery as Spike Spiegel in Cowboy Bebop basically defined cool for a generation of anime fans, myself included. What floors me is the range underneath that signature growl: Amon in The Legend of Korra, Vilgax in Ben 10, Starscream, Sub-Zero, on and on. He's so prolific he's held records for most video game voice credits. To me he's the rare voice actor whose work I sought out specifically, and Bebop alone would have secured his legacy. Everything since has been a remarkable encore.
