If we can count the supporting characters from Starman Jones and Citizen of the Galaxy (Baslim?). Then how about the uncle in "Time For The Stars". If I recall correctly he gets swallowed by an ocean going creature. |

...and Dr. Baldwin in Friday...although perhaps he does not put in enough appearances to warrant inclusion in this list. And do we count Mary Sperlings 'transformation' in Methuselah's Children? |

I'm not going to try and argue or defend any positions; this is merely intellectual exercise. I thought I had included Friday (for Dr. Baldwin's death). TFTS probably qualifies for the uncle. I'm drawing a blank on Cat except for the stuffed shirt who is killed in the opening scene and the possibly mythical Walker Evans, neither of whom qualify, IMVHO. Mary Sperling, nah - neither her mind nor body dies, they just go separate ways. |
