Neal Adams is my favourite Late Silver/Bronze artist.

The thing about all the movies is the writers and directors lose themselves in his powers and his weaknesses, when he's at his best when he helps us with ours.

Funny thing about superman, big catch phrase was always...Truth, Justice and the American Way

Interesting note:

Joseph "Joe" Shuster was a Canadian-American comic book artist best known for co-creating the DC Comics character Superman, with writer Jerry Siegel, in Action Comics #1 (cover-dated June 1938).

Sadly relevant with the increase in suicides lately.

I would definitely rank Brandon Routh higher than this. Probably just over Dean Cain and just below Tom Welling. But have a look and see what you think...

I always loved the late Margot Kidder as Lois

I'm not sure what's up with Henry Cavill. I thought he was contracted for at least one more feature as Superman but I guess there's a lot of speculation that he's done, which is too bad in my opinion. Anyway, let the casting speculation begin for who might take over the role...

I can only think that Man Mountain has a total HARD ON for Superman.Nothing gay inflected or specified or such......I figure Man Mountain is a HUGE fan of Superman.....nothin wrong with that at all.Jerry Sienfeld is also a HUGE Superman fan
and from his wealth I bet he owns an Action Comics #1 in very good condition.....wish I owned one as well.....pretty much a couple million in value.

My fave for all of the films was Superman Returns.....I thought it was well done.
