Funeral For A Friend: The Death of Superman
Although this is in no way 'Alpha Flight' related, it DOES impact the comic book movie genre forever...
On Sunday, October 10th, Christopher Reeves -- famed actor primarily known for his roles in the late 70's and early 80's role as 'Superman', his recent paralysis and lobbying for stem cell research progression -- died of heart failure at the age of 52.
Long will he be remembered, long will he be missed...

Hell was full, so I came back.
You didn't have to wear a cape or tights to be a hero. Rest easy, you deserve it.

Driftwood: Well, I got about a foot and a half. Now, it says, uh, "The party of the second part shall be known in this contract as the party of the second part."
Fiorello: Well, I don't know about that...
Driftwood: Now what's the matter?
Fiorello: I no like-a the second party, either.
Driftwood: Well, you should've come to the first party. We didn't get home 'til around four in the morning... I was blind for three days!
In all senses of the term, a really super man. You will be missed

Kurtz has done a wonderfully classy tribute to Reeves -- a single panel cartoon. It's down near the bottom of the page. I wish I'd thought of it.
Okay, I can only see that in the way that's not.Originally Posted by Northcott

Never mind. I found it in the news archives for October.

Must've been shuffled back very recently. It was still on the front page when I created the link.
