"Black Scorpion" was a tv series on the Sci Fi channel that aired back in 2001, and is based upon the movies of the same name. Essentially, the series tracked the adventures of a female cop who goes renegade at night along the lines of Batman under the alias of Black Scorpion. Dave Mustaine made a cameo as a bad guy named Torchy Thompson, a pyromaniac and arsonist-for-hire with the burn marks to prove it. Donning a black trench coat, he drives an old pickup truck to a power plant to set it aflame at the direction of his boss and ex-cell mate, when he is confronted by the Black Scorpion and her friend, an ex-firefighter. The three do battle karate style, with Hangar 18 playing in the background, and Torchy slips away after knocking out the Black Scorpion and dowsing her in gasoline. However, during their second encounter, Torchy meets his untimely demise at the hands of the ex-firefighter. The series was available on a limited basis on DVD, but is no longer in print. Too bad the show was so short lived; it had such a catchy title.
