CW Orders Pilot For 'Green Arrow' Series

Posted 1/13/12 10:28 am EST by in DC Comics, News, TV


Green Arrow

Did the "Smallville" series finale bum you out? That's understandable -- even if there are plenty of DC superhero movies in the mix, none of them will ever be as soap-ready as "Smallville" was, what with its labyrinthine plots and oh-so beautiful cast.

Perhaps wary of giving up a good thing, the CW isn't quite ready to give up on the DC Universe. EW reports that they're close to a pilot order for a new show starring the Green Arrow, who popped up as often as possible over "Smallville"'s 10-year run.

Posted 6/20/11 11:13 am EST by in DC Comics


The ten-year run of "Smallville" is in the rearview mirror now, but that doesn't mean the record-breaking series has faded from the minds of its cast or fans. MTV News recently caught up with actress Laura Vandervoort, who played Supergirl in a recurring role on the show the last few seasons.

"I really enjoyed being on 'Smallville,'" said Vandervoort when asked about saying goodbye to her character, Kara, and the rest of the "Smallville" universe. Read More...

Posted 5/14/11 2:01 pm EST by in DC Comics


SmallvilleLast night's episode of "Smallville" capped off ten years of adventures with Clark Kent, but now that the credits have rolled, what do you think of the series finale?

We brought you one longtime fan's take on the final episode of "Smallville" last night, but we want to hear from the rest of you, too. Did you love it? Did you get a bit misty-eyed when you heard the final score and tell the people in the room with you that it was just a pollen allergy? (I'm not describing anything that happened to me or anyone I know, of course. That's just a completely random example.)

On the other hand, were you a bit disappointed by the way "Smallville" bid farewell to fans? Were you expecting something more after ten years? Read More...

'Smallville' Series Finale Review: Tights, Flights, And New Heights

Posted 5/14/11 12:01 am EST by in Commentary, DC Comics


SmallvilleBy Sal Loria

[Editor's Note: With "Smallville" concluding its ten-year run tonight, I reached out to a friend of mine who's been following the show since the very first episode to provide some analysis of the grand finale. This is what he had to say about the final adventure with Clark Kent and the rest of the "Smallville" cast. -RM]

Lana: Nietzsche? Didn’t realize you had a dark side, Clark.
Clark: Doesn’t everybody?
Lana: Yeah… I guess so. So, what are you… Man or Superman?

This was the very first exchange between awkward teen Clark Kent and his not-so-secret crush Lana Lang back on October 16, 2001, when "Smallville" debuted on television. Developed originally by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar, the series set out to chronicle how a farm boy in small-town Kansas would become the world’s greatest superhero.

So, after ten seasons containing over 200 episodes, would Lana — not to mention millions of fans — finally get an answer? Read More...

Our 10 Favorite 'Smallville' Comic Character Cameos

Posted 5/13/11 5:01 pm EST by in DC Comics


SmallvilleNo matter how you feel about the impending conclusion of "Smallville," there's one thing all comic fans can probably agree on: it was always interesting to see which DC characters appeared on the show, and more importantly, how they'd look when they made the leap to a live-action world.

Over the course of its ten-year run, "Smallville" featured a wide range of DC heroes and villains in single-episode and recurring roles, from A-list icons to D-list players in the superhero landscape. And you have to hand it to the "Smallville" creative team — they didn't shy away from using characters from the weirder corners of the DC Universe. (Heck, the Wonder Twins even made an appearance.)

From Amos Fortune to Zatanna Zatara, no character was off-limits, it seemed. And while some of the characters' debuts were short-lived, others went on to take a regular, active role in shaping Clark Kent's destiny on the series. Read More...
