Just a few minutes ago, we reported on Mark Waid, arguably the biggest Superman fan in comics, and his heartbroken take on Man of Steel–well, this morning we’ve got a bit of an antidote for you in the form of Chris Haley, co-creator of Let’s Be Friends Again and closer runner-up to Waid’s “biggest Superman fan” title.”I don’t care if the Superman flick is good or not. I just want Chris Haley to be okay with it,” tweeted former Superman writer Chris Roberson earlier tonight–so what did Haley have to say about the film?Here’s an excerpt from his Twitter account.

YOU GUYS. ..My phone died as April was trying to record a video of me crying after Man of Steel.I only kind of welled up a few times during the movie. When it was over, I was kinda surprised by this.I sat thru the whole credits & then went to the restrooms. I started thinking about what I was going to tweet.While standing at the urinal & wondering what to tweet, the theme started playing in my head & all the emotions hit me.I managed to keep it together long enough to get out of the bathroon and into an empty hallway before I started SOBBING.April asked if I was crying or laughing and I said both as a puddle of tears was forming in my glasses.She asked if i was ok, & I struggled to compose myself enough to say “I’m so happy.”Anyway, I’m not gonna spoil anything or say anything about the movie itself for a while, but my 2nd viewing starts in 30 minutes.
