[terryansimon]

very similar things.

Most sad person must be Deepblue now.

We need a new hero but this era I doubt we can find anyone to replace him. Is it spiderman, batman or catwoman. Why all these heros are associated with animals?

Maybe we can have Tangman (DA?) or Clownwoman or Snailman?

[XPeriment 626]

snailman... wonder what his powers will be!!

[Chris]

He rids the world of rubbish, which by incidence is plentiful.

[neokn]

Pardon me for saying this.

Given if I'm in the same condition as he is before he dies, I would be better off dead then alive. Just imagine the sorrow, trouble and $ that I would have use just to keep me alive. Anyway, that's just me.

I guess alots of us grew up with the thought of superhero would come one day and save us from any misfortune and Santa Cluz would come give you a big present if you are a good boy/girl when we were much younger.

I miss Superman too.

heard from class95 this morning, they said anyone whom play the role as superman previously met with mishaps.. so the one who play superman in smallville would rather be called as 'clerk' or 'clark' or wadever..

snailman... wonder what his powers will be!!

he power will be slowness

Mr Reeves actually made a bigger impact in this world after his misfortune.

IMHO, we can all learn a little from him, he never gave up hoping,

he directed a film, raised millions of $$ and awareness for charity.

he even made cameos in 'Smallville'

He's a real life 'Man of Steel'

Apparently some people believe there is a "Superman curse". I don't, but this is an interesting read nonetheless:

Is there a 'Superman' curse?

HOLLYWOOD, California (Variety) -- With Paul Walker the latest to drop out of the running to play the title role in the new "Superman" movie for Warner Bros. (Josh Hartnett turned it down earlier), a question comes to mind:

Isn't this supposed to be the role actors would die for?

Not if you talk to talent agents. Frequently suspicious, they are rarely superstitious -- and yet, some raise the "Curse of Superman" as a reason the Brett Ratner-directed picture seems to be having trouble finding the Man of Steel.

What is the curse? While everyone knows the misfortune that came to paralyze Christopher Reeve, the nervous breakdown suffered by Margot Kidder and the multiple sclerosis that struck Richard Pryor; many others connected to "Superman" have suffered.

Kirk Alyn played bit parts and minor supporting roles in several low-budget films before getting his big break playing the title role in the 1948 serial "Superman." But after the serial ended, he failed to sustain a film career and retired to Arizona.

George Reeves, who played the role of Superman in a TV series and several movies in the 1950s, was found dead of a single gunshot wound to the head in 1959. The cause of death was listed as suicide, though controversy swirled around the death: Reeves' prints were never found on the gun, and he'd been having an affair with the wife of MGM exec Eddie Mannix.

The first cartoon "Superman" was voiced by Bud Collyer from 1941-43. He went on to have a fine career in TV, creating and hosting the game show "To Tell the Truth." But he returned to the role to voice "The New Adventures of Superman" for CBS in 1966 -- and three years later, he was dead of a circulatory ailment.
