Is David Lucas an alias for Steven Blum or not? ~ Dread Lord CyberSkull ✎☠ 20:36, 2005 August 7 (UTC)
It is. At a con, Blum talked about doing both seasons of Big-O, even though the first season is credited to Lucas.
However, this is something that fans and journalists in the anime industry who wish to be respectful of the English voice actor's situations never directly allude to because by revealing the relationships between aliases, it may cause problems for them with the Screen Actors Guild. A little bit of history: Some voice over/dub studios do not have the financial means to pay the union rates for SAG actors, so they are forced to work with non-union actors. However, all SAG actors like to work and will choose to do non-union work, but do it under a name that's not registered with SAG. The studios agree to work under these situations because they'll then get good quality dubs that way, and will never say that so and so is actually a different, SAG-affiliated so and so. The fans accept it because they'd rather see the good quality dubs, too. -TLS
If you goto IMDB's site on him[1] he's listed also as Lucas. Also see RottenTomatoes[2] - Left side says "AKA Steven Blum, David Lucas". Thirdly Eikichi Onizuka from Great Teacher Onizuka english voice is credited to David Lucas - and I know thats the same voice as Spike Spiegel from Cowboy Bebop which is credited to Steven Jay Blum. - ShakataGaNai
- so i merged the articles already. we know he's him because he's with the sac now.
He Who Claims To Be Him
- I checked on the IP of that post on main article. http://www.showmyip.com/nl/?ip=66.75.79.135 and it goes out to Woodland Hills, CA. I t is also the only user contribution associated with that IP. Hmm... Sweetfreek 20:10, 16 December 2005 (UTC)

Alright so, do we keep the information up if it risks Steven Blum losing his SAG position?--155.246.15.34 05:41, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
Geico Commercial
Unless I'm mistaken, its not Steven Blum who is in the Geico commercial, it's James Urbaniak.
- I added a verification needed tag. I can't find any source to verify his roles in either supposed commercials.209.0.48.138 09:41, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
Marcus Fenix
It says in the article that he voices Marcus in Gears of War, but John DiMaggio is also credited with the role. Who is it?
DiMaggio--Plankton5005 02:30, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
Blum was originally cast for the role but DiMaggio was later brought in instead.
notable roles
Just thought someone should know that under notable roles it says a bunch of Ben 10 characters are from Cowboy Bebop.
Template
I removed the template since most it's info. is in the article
"Not to be confused with."
Removed the sentence "He is not to be confused with another Steven Blum who is primarily involved in crew work, having done work on shows such as the U.S. version of Whose Line Is It Anyway?, as well as Attack of the Show! and X-Play."
As it is off-topic, irrelevant, and has nothing to do with Steven Blum the voice actor directly.
