RE: Thought Bubble Thursdays #6 - Fates Worse Than Death
I grew up watching the original TV Superman, George Reeves. He committed suicide, but his character lived on with other actors and other shows. For me even though Superman wasn’t killed off in the show he was dead to me, buried with George Reeves.
Man, that's a bummer about George Reeves. I knew his story because of the movie Hollywoodland. I totally get how you feel about it, being attached with the character-actor. I guess this is one of those cases where a character was gone too soon. Had they retired Superman along with George Reeves' passing, it would've made for a more compelling successor. Now, they couldn't get Superman right.
