Spanning five seasons and comprising 156 episodes, the original run of Rod Serling’s The Twilight Zone brought spine-tingling situations and unflinching social commentary to small screens on a weekly basis.
Gathered around the rabbit-eared tube in living rooms across the country, viewers saw characters struggle to think happy thoughts in 1961’s “It’s a Good Life”, watched as bus passengers huddled in a diner wondered aloud which of them was an alien in “Will the Real Martian Please Stand Up?”, saw beauty and ugliness perceived from unexpected perspectives in 1960’s “Eye of the Beholder”, and experienced hours of other strange and thought-provoking occurrences throughout the series.
Bif Bang Pow!’s Series 2 Twilight Zone figures feature characters from the aforementioned three classic episodes as well as the memorable 1960 entry, “The Night of the Meek.”

The poster screamed: “Most criminals answer to the law. The world’s most savage executioner must answer to Bronson.” Since the late 1960s, Charles Bronson’s name on a marquee was a guarantee of unchained action. When The Evil That Men Do opened in 1984, fans were hit with the expected violence─but this time they were also assaulted with thick layers of sadism, sleaze and depravity. And they loved it.
Born in 1921, Charles Bronson (originally Bunchinsky) was a dirt-poor Pennsylvania coal miner before he was drafted and later used the GI Bill to study acting. After dozens of small roles, he became a popular supporting player in hit films like The Magnificent Seven (1960) and The Great Escape (1963)─then went overseas to star in European pictures like Farewell, Friend (1967), Once Upon a Time in the West (1967) and Rider on the Rain (1970). Although ignored in the States─where they...

Whether they’re male or female, old or young, they’ve illuminated some classic movies. Here’s our top 50 list of sci-fi heroes and heroines…
On the face of it, compiling a list of truly great sci-fi protagonists should be easy. Pick a load of familiar names from a hat, write some breathlessly adoring drivel beneath them, and head off to the pub to reward a job well done.
Except it was never going to be as simple as that – and compiling lists seldom is. For every character making an appearance in the list below, there were at least two other possible candidates who didn't quite make the cut. Some sci-fi heroes were removed, then quickly reinstated. The order was jiggled around, then reordered again.
At one point, your humble writer realised there were more than 50 entries, and then had the unenviable task of hunting back through to decide which poor soul to eliminate.
