Steve Blum

Steve Blum is an American voice actor, well known for providing the voice of TOM from the Cartoon Network original block, Toonami.

Career[]

Among his credits include the voice of Spike Spiegel in the anime series Cowboy Bebop and Mugen in Samurai Champloo. He also voiced Roger Smith from The Big O, Orochimaru and Zabuza in the Naruto anime, and X-Men's Wolverine in numerous incarnations.

In September 2000, Blum began voicing the role of TOM (replacing Sonny Strait), as the second through fourth incarnations of the character right up to the block's cancellation on September 20, 2008 delivering the final lines uttered on the block, with the final "Bang", echoing his role from Cowboy Bebop's Spike Spiegel. On April 1, 2012, Blum returned to portray TOM for the Adult Swim Toonami April Fools Joke and on May 26, 2012 Toonami was brought back to life, now on Adult Swim, with Blum continuing to provide the voice of TOM.
