RIP, Superman

Christopher Reeve, the star of the Superman movies whose near-fatal horse riding accident nine years ago turned him into a worldwide advocate for spinal cord research, died of heart failure on Sunday.

This is truly sad news. Others will come and go, but in my mind, Christopher Reeve will always be the true Superman (and Clark Kent). I'd always held out hope that he would overcome his injuries. He was showing progress and always showed such great optimism in making a full recovery.

We will miss you Superman.
