Another incredibly gifted movie set still photographer has passed away -- Rest in Peace Pierre Vinet. He and Bob Penn must have had such fun on these sets of so many movies we know and love. What a dream job! This is my favorite Vinet photo. You can see more of his work here.

 Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation: In Honor of Dana Reeve. We miss you Dana.

 Hi Folks,

I have been studying Christopher Reeve's autographs and penmanship for over twenty years. Since his accident, the number of forged autographs in the marketplace, particularly on eBay, have been many. This deceit is both criminal and shameful in my mind.

I have been intending to do an autograph feature article on CapedWonder™.com for awhile, but other priorities have pushed it back. But now it's time to move forward with it.

So I am asking for your help. Please send me high-quality scans of Christopher Reeve autographs, salutations, handwritten notes and letters, whether you believe they are the "real deal" or otherwise. Any other information and resources you may know of will also be very much appreciated. Chris signed autographs in a few different ways, so I need many examples in order to properly illustrate Chris' penmanship styles and differentiate authentic from forged. The larger your scans, the better. Please send them here. All contributors will be acknowledged, unless otherwise requested.

Thanks in advance. Have a great weekend!

Go Forward,

Jim Bowers.

 I was never a Seinfeld watcher, but I really like his beautifully illustrated "Halloween" book. dialbforblog.com is a great website chalked full of colorful comic book imagery, with a fun Seinfeld section that shows Randy Bowen's Superman statue from the early 90's, and a nice Christopher Reeve tribute. I have two of the statues displayed in my office -- one has Christopher Reeve's gold autograph on it. I remember how much Chris liked the statue at the 1994 Atlanta Dixie Trek convention.

 Superfan and friend Julian Adderley from Canada photographed various Superman-The Movie, Superman II, and Superman IV shooting locations last year, including the New York Daily News, Solow Building, Statue of Liberty and Niagara Falls. Click here to enjoy the Flash gallery. Thanks for sharing, Julian!

 My friend and artist Brian Roll shared with me this past Friday that in 2007 he was commissioned by the parents of 2-year-old boy named Justin to paint this piece called, "Justin and Superman", after Justin suddenly passed away. Justin was absolutely crazy about all things Superman. I must admit that I got quite a lump in my throat when I first saw this very touching piece. Thank you, Brian.

I've had some amazing photographic opportunities over the past 25 years since I first picked up a serious camera. Among the highlights are Christopher Reeve's 1994 Dixie Trek appearance, Christopher Reeve's 1997 star ceremony in Hollywood, and the 2009 Siegel and Shuster events in Cleveland, Ohio. Thanks again to the Siegel and Shuster Society for inviting me to Cleveland last summer!

There's nothing quite like sitting down, relaxing, and delving into a good novel. Unfortunately, this is something I don't do very often nowadays. Anyhow, I received two of these graphic novels as Christmas gifts, and just finished reading this one. I really enjoyed it. Geoff Johns and Gary Frank are a gifted team. I am also enjoying their Secret Origins so far. Have an excellent week!
