Superman is dead :-(

I still remember the first visit at the cinema that I did as a child (one of the few times that my parents took me actually), and this was to watch Superman 2; I was so excited to finally be able to see the hero I’ve been reading about in real life – I even had a t-shirt with the characteristic “S” on the chest.

Though, Christopher Reeve’s real act of heroism was when he, paralyzed from the neck and down, (no matter how “selfish”) fought to get therapeutic cloning allowed in the United States of America, to show that cloning of stem cells is a fundamental part to cure people with severe illnesses and to show that this is not something unethical.

Christopher Reeve died at 52.
