Geoff Johns announced during the Smallville panel that he is writing an episode called Society that introduces the Justice Society of America to the Smallville universe. Also announced during the panel is word that Allison Mack and Tom Welling will both direct episodes this season.  And as we hinted at the other day, Clark Kent will don the Superman suit in the season’s debut episode.  The producers do want the series to go to a 10th season, and are hoping the shows move to Friday night will help that.The appearance of Zod, played by Callum Blue, will help that as…

Well, duh, we already know Clark Kent is Superman and has been on the Smallville television series for the last 9 years, but one has to remember the Superman costume, and powers like flying have been kept strictly on the down-low to avoid mixing the Smallville universe with the DC in-continuity one. That might all change come Sunday when it MIGHT be announced that Superman’s outfit will make an appearance in the season premiere of season 9 – aptly titled “Superman”. Does this mean we might see Tom Welling take over the film franchise down the road?  Another rumor has…

Smallville fans who are waiting to find out who has been cast as Zod in the next season of Smallville are going to have to wait a while longer, but in the meantime, TVGuide.com found out another bit of information.  Brian Austin Green has been cast as John Corben.  That’s right, Metallo is coming to Smallville in season 9. The Smallville producers are going to dive into the Silver Age, by making Corben a reporter for the Daily Planet, instead of a crazed scientist (Golden Age), a petty thief (Modern Age), or Lex Luthor lacky (Superman: The Animated Series).    According…

Tom Welling has signed up for the 9th season of The CW’s Smallville series, causing many fans to cry, ‘WHY!?” and others to proclaim, “Tom Welling is my love god!”  Granted, I don’t know who those people are who are screaming about the love god part (Matthew), but considering the show is going for season 9, there has to be a large enough fan base of Tom Welling lovers out there (Matthew).  While it’s great to see an ongoing superhero series on television, I can’t help but feel sad we won’t be seeing Lana back as a regular. For the…

Is a Smallville reboot on the way?  Perhaps everyone will get mind wiped at the end of the episode, or more than likely, a dream sequence.  Tori Spelling as Linda Lake? Man, I really need to spend a weekend with catching up with all the shows on my TiVo. Smallville: Superhero Gone Wild airs March 12, 2009.

Good news for Reaper fans, the CW has announced it is bringing back the show early for the spring season. The move puts “Reaper” at 8 p.m. Tuesdays followed by “90210,” a shake-up that protects the teen soap from Fox’s “American Idol.” “Reaper” will still air its 13 episodes straight, through without repeats as originally planned. I like the idea of airing all the episodes in a row without a rerun, but still find myself confused as to why Reaper keeps getting a mid-season slot instead of a full year.  Last year it was one of the best shows on…

We’ve already told you about Alex Johnson playing Saturn Girl in the upcoming Smallville episode featuring the Legion of Super-Heroes.  IMDB has updated the show’s cast naming Ryan Kennedy as Cosmic Boy and Calum Worthy as Lightning Lad. The scheduled date for the show is in January, which just so happens to be the same month the Legion of Super-Heroes comic ends with issue #50.  Nice timing.  Of course the first appearance of the Legion occurred in Adventure Comics #247, and DC is wisely launching a new Adventure Comics series in February, so maybe someone is on the ball after…
