Smallville Season 11, it"s happening... - Page 2

A quick glance at the SMALLVILLE finale shows that Clark's suit very clearly has the classics trunks.

While I'm not a big fan of the show, I'll check this out on the strength of Brian Q. Miller writing it. While I'm happy to have Barbara Gorden back in the role she never should have been removed from, I loved the Stephanie Brown Batgirl series Miller wrote.

The new digital first series will be published digitally on April 13, 2012, with new digital chapters released weekly thereafter.

So... will this be released digitally?

Admiral_Young · February 9 2012, 07:58 PM

Yes, like Batman: Arkham City and the recently released Justice League Beyond.

The distant and fleeting glimpses we had of him in the costume plainly showed the red trunks.

Either he modified it after his debut, or someone at Time Warner hates the red trunks so much they're trying to erase all memory of them and doesn't care what the finale showed.

For this, they should be exiled to the Phantom Zone.

I'm a big fan of the show so I'll definitely be keeping an eye on these, but I might wait to see the reaction here before I start.

Jetfire already posted links to the costume on the previous page...as he stated correctly, the suit was a modified version of the version from "Superman Returns". We saw a physical form of the costume in a vault in the Fortress of Solitude several times during the final season. Interesting plot details. It will be interesting to see how Miller writes Lex now that he has returned. I'm guessing the others mentioned in the update blurb, could be the Legion of Doom, who IIRC were introduced or implied in the final season. I don't remember now. Also interesting that it says we'll be seeing "new allies". Perhaps the introduction of more future Justice League members? Would they drop the Bat-Embargo for this? I'm guessing not, since this would be considered continuation of the canon. I'm happy that Brian and Kelly don't appear to be involved in this at all, I'm sure though Miller has their blessing since this is probably stuff they did talk about.

No information as of yet.

^ What do you mean there is no information yet? The article Ethros quoted clearly states this is a weekly digital series.

FWIW Ethros, I chuckled at your post.
Well played RandyS

I've got to admit that I'm sort of interested in this, as I did enjoy the show when it was good. The last two seasons, not so much, but the show did have it's moments. At least this project won't be encumbered by Welling's wooden acting or his limited range of facial expressions. Plus, there's the added bonus of being able to bring back characters, even if the actors aren't available. So it's all good.

I can't help but wonder if Lois will be drawn looking like she's had botox injections and a boob-job.

DarthPipes · February 11 2012, 02:52 AM

At least there will be a damn good excuse as to why Lois's face doesn't move in the comic world.
