Remember when everyone in Genoa City thought Victor had passed on? No, not the time last December, or that time in 2012 either … not even the time in 2008 when he got shipwrecked in Mexico! Talking about the time in 1993, after he was in a car crash! Well, in an iconic move (and the first time he came back “to life”) Victor returns to the little town, much to the shock of all his foes! Classic episode of the Moustache’s comeback, circa October 1, 1993.
