As I told a friend earlier, I teally enjoyed Superman. It is a pure comic book movie. It has some depth, humor, tension, and good action. Krypto, of course, was awesome! Well done, Mr. Gunn!

Kassidy got a visit from a brilliant scientist, wonderful writer, & good friend @ the airport. If you’re traveling in or out of San Diego, grab a copy. If you see Ron say hi. He’ll be a great ally when the apocalypse comes. 😉 Appreciate you, brother!
