An Iconic DC Villain Once Played One of Marvel’s Best Martial Artists
Prior to assuming the role of Stick, Christopher Reeve had already solidified his status as a DC icon through his performances. Meanwhile, Terence Stamp initially appeared as a minor character in Superman, eventually transforming into the primary antagonist in Superman II. His portrayal of General Zod was highly acclaimed and remains admired to this day, which is remarkable considering that many early comic book adaptations are now seen as outdated. Later, Stamp participated in a BBC Radio special titled Superman on Trial, and in 2003, he revisited the franchise by playing Jor-El in Smallville.
