A fallen hero is no more

[Lefteris_D]

Christopher Reeve, the person that most of us knew simply as Superman, passed away yesteday after a heart failure. He was 52 years old.

May god rest his soul.

Guess I'm the only one not crying. Everyone is whining about it.

[onewecallgod]

i'm not crying either, but what makes him a hero?

he's more of a cool guy who fought for paralysis reasearch

[Zach]

Only after it affected him

[Zidane]

You have to admit, with all his accomplisments with his paralysis he can only be called a hero. He's no saint mind you but a hero all the same.

[ScotchGuy]

"A fallen hero is no more" is redundant and silly.

Of course the fallen hero is no more, is there ever a case were a fallen hero (dead hero) is still alive? No. Learn english gooder.

[El Fugitivo]

He's not a hero. He only played one in the movies.

[Jay]

It is true that he only fought for paralysis research after he was affected by it, but the point is that he did fight for what he believed in. He was a good man who tried very hard to help those who suffered in the same manner he did. He wanted to help everyone, not just himself. That makes him a hero to some people, especially the ones who got help directly from his foundation.


On the lighter side I did think this article that Maddox did that was very funny. Dark satire can be hilarious.

That's not dark satire, it's over the top imagery which could only appeal to an entirely unrefined sense of humour. You know, simple people.
