Almost Heroes: Powell (Q: The Winged Serpent)

Another week and another guy who just narrowly misses the cut!

In Q: The Winged Serpent, we get David Carradine teaming up with Michael Moriarty to stop Quetzalcoatl in New York City.  He's not alone though...

This is Powell- his Partner.  He's not John Shaft.
He works the case, being an actually-good Detective and not a drunk.  Naturally...
He goes up on a Roof with an Cop dressed like a Mime (in an Amadeus shirt!) and...
...gets killed by the Monster.  Oh well.
After that, Carradine and Moriarty actually save the day.  So close!

At least he got killed on-screen (unlike Billy from Predator).

Next time, a man loses his top spot due to rewrites (allegedly).  See you then...
