Tribute to 'Superman'

Taken from MSNBC

MSNBC and CNN have announced that the 'Superman' star, Christopher Reeve died of heart failure on Sunday at the age of 52. He was paralyzed neck down after a riding accident 9 years ago, very nearly contemplated suicide, but rose back to life since then. No one is as strong as him.. Really..

I remember watching him 'fly' over the buildings, carry vehicles and boulders, saving innocent lives in the Superman movies. The last time I seen him act was in two episodes in Smallville (one each in Season 2 and 3) as Dr. Virgil Swann. Can't imagine him not appearing in another episode anymore... Come to think of it, Tom Welling do look a little bit like Christopher Reeve.... Side profile lahh..

I hope that Smallville will make a tribute to him. He was 'Superman' in the movies, he was Superman in the sense that he fought back for his life, and he dies as a Superman. He was heroic both on and off screen. He truly deserves that title. Rest in peace, Mr. Christopher Reeve...
