Dang on one hand it's going to be the end of an era on the other eh I'm just glad the news is just that he's retiring, and not dead.

Indeed no doubt but I'm sure we'll be hearing about more retirements sooner or later. Suit actors can't work forever in that line of work.

Let's see if you're right about the pre-Zyu stuff.

Yup he was Gash's voice and he was also Grey's voice.
