DC TV: New Vegetarian Kevin Smith Tweets Photo from Home Where He’s Recovering from Heart Attack

Kevin Smith is a vegetarian now! Hope The Flash and Supergirl film crews like kale as much as Buddy burgers.

Home again, home again, jiggety-jig! Home is where the heart is and the heart is feeling good! It’s actually getting more blood flow and oxygen than it has in a long time. So I am ALERT, to say the least! Thank you for all the kind words, folks – from Vegetarian Kev, Day 2! pic.twitter.com/zLbwzx7Exq

The honourary Vancouverite is back home just days after suffering “a massive heart attack”.

In true Kevin Smith style he tweeted the shocking news from his hospital bed.

After the first show this evening, I had a massive heart attack. The Doctor who saved my life told me I had 100% blockage of my LAD artery (aka “the Widow-Maker”). If I hadn’t canceled show 2 to go to the hospital, I would’ve died tonight. But for now, I’m still above ground! pic.twitter.com/M5gSnW9E5h

Smith was filming his new comedy special Kevin Smith Live! in Glendale, California, on Sunday night. He completed one show but left for hospital before the second show.

The Flash reactions.

Thinking of my dude @thatkevinsmith today. You work too much, bro! And I am lucky enough to be able to say from experience that when Kevin works on something, he gives 100% of himself in every capacity. I’ve marvelled at his work ethic, positivity and energy many-a-times. He’s a unicorn. Send him some positive, healing vibes today. The world needs him. #TheWorldNeedsKevinSmith

I can see why heaven would want you. But we’re glad you’re still stuck on earth. #KevinCanWait https://t.co/nnaHoGuu2p

Get well soon, @ThatKevinSmith, you sweet, talented man, you.

Kevin has been an inspiration to me for years, since Clerks. The last couple of years, getting to work with one of my heroes, leaving my own mark on him (literally and figuratively) kinda becoming friends has been nothing short of mind-blowing.

We have more to do together, sir! https://t.co/nDBSKsUWX6

Kevin Smith goes black tie at the Vancouver Art Gallery directing The Flash this month.

The Vancouver Film School grad is championing east Vancouver’s Rio Theatre with two benefit shows on March 30th for the #SavetheRio campaign. To stop the theatre from being demolished.

Oh, @ThatKevinSmith!! We like you so, so, *so* much better above ground, friend! 🙂 Relieved you saw the light and wishing you all the love and the speediest of recoveries. In the meantime: Take it easy, eh? xoxo – Everyone at @RioTheatre #SavetheRio

Everyone hopes his recovery is swift but March 30th seems too soon for him to be back in action.
