Not many people remember the part in the Robert Louis Stevenson novel, where Jekyll ninja spins in the air and turns into Hyde to fight the Grim Reaper. 10/10

Robert was way ahead of his time lol 😎

I, for one, do not recall such an occurrence in the novel. Perhaps it was edited out by the publisher?

[@josephskiles]

You guys will always be permanently linked with the original Jekyll and Hyde, there is no getting around it, and while some of us remember renting it as a kid ( or great Cthulhu forbid bought it unknowingly ) the true resurgence of popularity for it is souly thanks to you! I remember years ago when KZbin was starting to get really popular I started looking for videos on old games I played as a kid. I typed in something like NES: Jekyll and Hyde or something and James's face appeared at the top of the list, that's how I found the A.N.N which not long after became the AVGN . It's hard to believe how many years ago that was now and all the laughs you guys have brought me. I wonder if there is another person who has had such an influence on games, he stars in so many of them and I'm sure he was the spark that caused so many of these fan made games. James basically is living the life all us video game kids dreamed of being one day 🙂.
