# I love that book
And the film always brings a tear to my eye when he blows himself up.
'superman' *closes eyes*
*sobs*

# Did he blow himself up?

# Oh, I didn't see you reference the film.
He dared the monster to fly into the sun didn't he? I definitely remember some rich guy buying him an oil liner to eat and them living happily ever after.

# Blows himself up and leaves us at the mercy of whatever alien race sent him in the first place.
I know he's seen rebuilding himself at the end, but something, somewhere out in space, created him to wipe us all out - and they'll probably try again.

# Shit, really? I haven't seen the film for ages,
I thought he was an experiment gone wrong or something. That's a classic science fiction downer ending right there.

# The Space Bat Angel Dragon
He totally beat it's ass in a challenge and sent that fucker back to space. I think the book ends with him living in a scrap yard eating tyres?

# As above:
"He dared the monster to fly into the sun didn't he? I definitely remember some rich guy buying him an oil liner to eat and them living happily ever after."

# A much more satisfactory ending than the film.
He had a slightly melted ear.

# Since we're on a stop-motion tip this week, how about a track (and animated video) from
the musical version of The Iron Man by Pete Townshend (1:02..)?
