Posted: Fri Aug 03, 2012 10:57 am
2 Days ago Newsarama posted their list of the Top Ten Best Comic Book Movie Performances

They did not include Christopher Reeve at all, and several comic creators called them out on it.
Yesterday Newsarama did their Top Ten Worst Comic Book Movie Performances and they listed Christopher Reeve at #9.

The backlash was so just nuts. Everyone and their mother spammed Newsaramas Facebook page with negative comments (Most all of them accurate) calling out Newsarama for just stirring the pot in an attempt to create "controversy". Even some creators bashed newsarama for their article: most notably Mark Waid & Dan Slott.
It got so bad that the very same day Newsarama released Top Ten Worst list, they released an Op-Ed piece about how great an actor Reeve was.

All in all, it was a funny 2 days for Newsarama.
