Get an exclusive look at the Geoff Johns-penned episode of SMALLVILLE

Tuesday, January 19th, 2010

By Alex Segura

It’s not a stretch to say comics are everywhere on the pop culture landscape — movies, television, books and beyond. These colorful heroes are a part of our daily lives, and we’re proud to unveil something very cool — and by “cool,” I mean something special, that we’ve never done before on THE SOURCE.

As most of you know, BLACKEST NIGHT writer Geoff Johns has done his fair share of Hollywood work, including but not limited to working with SUPERMAN director Richard Donner. He’s also written episodes of SMALLVILLE. The most recent, titled “Absolute Justice” features the television debut of some of his — and your — favorite DCU heroes, including Hawkman, Stargirl and Dr. Fate.

In other words, the Justice Society of America. The first superhero team in history and one that holds a special place not only for Geoff, but for fans everywhere.

So, needless to say, we’d be remiss if we didn’t mention it here. We’d be doubly at fault if we didn’t corral Geoff himself to share a few words, too. Take it away, Geoff:

“It’s the first live action Justice Society of America. Hawkman, Doctor Fate and, my personal favorite, Stargirl. But don’t expect them to be the one ones you see. Look closely in this episode. There’s more cameos and easter eggs than Green Lanterns.”

Oh, and did I mention we have an exclusive clip from the episode, courtesy of the fine folks at The CW? Click below to view. Enjoy!

    at first this season of smallville was sad and boring, but this is bringing it back. keep up the good work, hope they don’t mess it up

    It’s so cool to see references to the members of the JSA that likely won’t be making an appearance (Wildcat, Green Lantern, Atom, Flash). Looking at that painting I wonder if there will be any mention about Black Canary in the episode. Will they have the Dinah in Smallville be the daughter of the original Canary, as in the comics? It would make sense.

  13. glacia2002 says on January 19th, 2010 at 6:33 pm :

    I don’t think that is Black Canary, but is Liberty Belle with a different colored costume. I can understand the similarities, but Black Canary doesn’t wear a mask.

  14. glacia2002 says on January 19th, 2010 at 6:54 pm :

    They should have Liberty Belle in the picture, or the whole Black Canary thing will get complicated.

  21. sblackman69 says on January 20th, 2010 at 6:13 pm :

    Ok this looks good! We se the JSA at the time and I guess waht remains ofthem in present time. We so see Black Canaray but the original (the mom with a mask), so will we see both the canarys (mom and daughter we saw b4) togheter or not ?
    Are some dead ?
    Original Flash could meet Bart (impulse) that would be cool!!
    Green Lantern could be a taste of what we could see in the future GL movie!
    All in all wow!

  22. darknite420 says on January 21st, 2010 at 4:56 am :

    I never watched Smallville, looks like I better start!

  23. JoseG says on January 21st, 2010 at 9:20 am :

    That IS Black Canary in the painting, not Liberty Belle. The Original Canary wore a mask at the beginning of her career and ditched it later

  25. Warewullf says on January 21st, 2010 at 11:04 am :

    Yep, that’s definitely Black Canary. I’m not a fan of Smallville but I will watch this when it’s shown in the UK.

  26. glacia2002 says on January 23rd, 2010 at 6:02 pm :
