Science Fiction giant Harlan Ellison has died at the age of 84.
He wrote the best Classic Star Trek episode – City on the Edge of Forever.
He also wrote an Outer Limits episode “The Soldier”. This ended being a lawsuit against James Cameron for the Terminator movies.
Ellison served as creative consultant to the 1980s version of The Twilight Zone science fiction TV series and Babylon 5.
Susan Ellison has asked me to announce the passing of writer Harlan Ellison, in his sleep, earlier today. “For a brief time I was here, and for a brief time, I mattered.”—HE, 1934-2018. Arrangements for a celebration of his life are pending.
