Superman Model Thrown From Horse
Commercial artist Frank Kasy was thrown by a 1,200 pound horse and was taken to a Chicago hospital. “It’s a miracle he’s still alive,” his friend Jim Wisniewski told ComicMix today.
Outside of ad agencies, Kasy is perhaps best known as Alex Ross’s model for Superman in his sundry DC Comics paintings and stories. As of presstime, he’s holding his own, watching Jack Webb videos. Jim told Frank “They rolled you in here, but thanks to your Kryptonian blood, you will walk out soon”
Actually, we expect Frank to fly out of the hospital. Get well soon, Frank.
Wow. I wonder if there is a horse-throwing Superman curse. First Reeves, now Kasy.
Exactly what I was thinking. Not a fun thing.(And just to be pedantic, Christopher Reeve was the one thrown by the horse. George Reeves died of a gunshot wound (which is the wiki-neutral way of saying it).
It took me a minute to get the meaning of the headline. I was thinking who would throw a Superman model while riding a horse?
