Andreas Katsulas, who played the noble and very witty alien G'Kar on Babylon 5 and the one-armed man in The Fugitive, has apparently died of lung cancer according to wikipedia.

I can't find any other refs at this point though. Very sad news - he was one of my most favourite B5 characters and a fine actor.

Best name in show business too.

It is a good name!

SciFi wire has an article too, so I suppose this clinches it.

Yesterday, Andreas Katsulas lost his battle with cancer and passed away.

Andreas was a wonderful actor, always grateful to be where he was. A quiet man with an acerbic sense of humor who always delivered the punchline perfectly.

He was a father and a husband and a friend. Even though he put himself down, his soulful blues vocals on "The Be Five" album we made together always were, and always will be my favorites. "How Was I to Know It Would End This Way?"

He will be missed.
