Trivia[]
- On YouTube, he has often been nicknamed by fans as the "Old Bastard" (Or rather, "The Second Old Bastard"). This nickname stems from the fact that his actual name was unknown for several years, he voiced several characters poorly and sounded quite old. Most of his roles were initially believed to be played by Ed Marcus, another actor who lent his voice in the AB Groupe dub, leading to fans joking that there were actually two "Old Bastards" involved.
