You guys can remember Leslie Nielson as a "funny man" but to me he set the standard for sci-fi spacemen long before Capt. James T. Kirk showed up.
Here he is with Anne "Honey West" Francis (in "Forbidden Planet")...

Just read about Don Van Vliet seconds ago and checked here to see - Swanky already beat me to it.
Sad, sad news although I understand Don has been ill for a time, its still SUCKS.
RIP Captain Beefheart RIP.
