As Commander Kor in TOS: "Errand of Mercy"
John Colicos (December 10, 1928 – March 6, 2000) was a Canadian actor who played Kor, the first major Klingon seen on Star Trek. As such, Colicos defined the look of the Original Series Klingons – mustachioed menaces in the Genghis Khan mold. Originating the role in the episode "Errand of Mercy", Colicos was to also return as Kor in both "The Trouble with Tribbles" and "Day of the Dove", but scheduling conflicts made this impossible. Regardless, he would be able to reprise the role of Kor several more times on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.
Fans of Battlestar Galactica remember him as the traitor Baltar, while soap-opera fans from the eighties may recall him as Mikkos Cassadine, a madman bent on destroying General Hospital's Port Charles. He had numerous other credits.
