Talk:Tor Johnson

Fat Zombie ?

Seeing as Tor's face became a succesful Halloween mask and with the cult status of Plan 9 and its zombie character, could it be that Id Software were inspired by him for their "Zombie Fat" character in Doom 3 ? To be fair, they look very much alike (face, hair, eyes, pose, expression, behaviour... only the clothes differ) and if this is true, I think it would be worthy of noticing here. For reference, you can find "Zombie Fat" here. I see something. Thiste 18:21, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

I don't think there was an intentional relation-- that zombie looks more like Matt Pinfield to me. Telor 15:47, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

Halloween Mask

Someone ought to find a picture of the actual Tor Johnson mask and put it up here. --MasterA113 14:34, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Bjo Trimble connection?

Is Johnson the "Swedish Angel" to whom Bjo Trimble refers in this interview? If so, he was responsible in part for interesting her in science fiction, which led eventually to the letter-writing campaign that kept Star Trek on the air for a third season. Powers ^T 15:46, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
