I think the character "Spock" marked a milestone in Western respect for orientals which was previously unheard of. All previous characters were the likes of Fu Manchu, Ming the merciless etc. I had some old comics from the 50's which were my uncle's and orientals were invariably cast as hordes of identical treacherous minions.
@markmansell: yeah...thats probably true. He certainly is my dads favorite character of all time, i would imagine. Probably why he was so excited to know i was going to Japan, and studying Japanese, etc.
"Certain you don't know what irritation is?"
