T O P I C R E V I E WcspgActor Marin Landau, who played Commander John Koenig on the TV series "Space: 1999," died on Saturday (July 15). From Hollywood Reporter: Martin Landau, the all-purpose actor who showcased his versatility as a master of disguise on the "Mission: Impossible" TV series and as a broken-down Bela Lugosi in his Oscar-winning performance in "Ed Wood," has died. He was 89. ...a former newspaper cartoonist, Landau turned down the role of Mr. Spock on the NBC series Star Trek, which went to Leonard Nimoy (who later effectively replaced Landau on Mission: Impossible after Trek was canceled).GACspaceguy.Panther494.randy.minipci"It's better to live as your own man than as a fool in someone else's dream."RIP Commander!Joel Katzowitz.GenXApolloRIP Commander Koenig.(Space 1999 was my favorite Sci-Fi show when I was growing up, slightly ahead of Star Trek.)Gilbert.Rick Mulheirn.Cozmosis22.uk spacefan.AlanC.star51L.dogcrew5369I still remember my Space 1999 Halloween costume.

I met Martin Landau at Autographica a few years ago. He was friendly, modest, approachable, and a very witty public speaker.
