• These stories are in print for the first time after appearing online.

• SUPERMAN comes face-to-face with high-tech weapons on the streets of Metropolis.

• The hunt for his parents’ killer puts a vigilante known only as “the BATMAN” on a collision course with The Man of Steel…

Those of us who were saddened to see Bryan Q Millar no longer publishing work at DC in the wake of the New 52 reboot can rejoice - the Q is returning, along with artists Pere Perez (interiors) and Cat Staggs (cover art), as the creative team of Smallville Season 11. Like Buffy Season 8, it's a continuation of the property as a comic, where presumably a Superman title should feel right at home.

Smalliville Season 11 will premiere as a weekly digital series, beginning April 13. The first print collection will be released May 16.

This guy not only recorded the audio of his unbelievably intense reaction to the final moments of Smallville, he posted it on the Internets!

This is pretty much the opposite response I had to the series finale - which is to say, I was disappointed and did NOT jizz my pants. Yet his enthusiasm, however forced it sounds at times, does in fact appear to be genuine.

And totally insane. But you know, whatever makes you happy, it's all good.

After 10 years, Smallville is coming to an end on Friday. Check out this new sneak peek clip, featuring Clark and his nervous bride-to-be, Lois, pondering the future.

Smallville's series finale airs Friday (the 13th - gulp!) at 8:00 pm/7:00 pm Central on the CW.

Maynard's of British Columbia is selling all sorts of props, wardrobe and set pieces, and other memorabilia from Smallville, which is just a few episodes away from its highly-anticipated series finale.

Collectors should run, not walk to the liquidation sale, running today (April 28), through Saturday, April 30.

Kara and Ollie - the Brave and the uh, Finest? There's team-up action when Laura (Supergirl) Vandevoort returns to Smallville for the May 6 episode, titled "Prophecy."

Justin (Green Arrow) Hartley spoke with TV Guide about the episode, in which Oliver Queen and Kara search for a cure for the Omega symbol on Queen's skull:

"Oliver is faced with this cold reality that he's not going to be able to get rid of this infection just by willing it away. He goes on this journey to try to get rid of it."

And unfortunately, penicillin does not work on Fourth World-related illnesses.

Just ask Jimmy Olsen.

"Prophecy" airs Friday, May 6 at 8:00 p.m. on The CW.

Here you have it: the first pic of Lex's triumphant (?) return to Smallville for the series finale. So many questions - what convinced Michael Rosenbaum to reprise his role as Lex, after maintaining for some time that he would never return to the show? Why is Clark wearing formal wear? What is the reason for Lex's smug grin (never a good sign)? The answers to these and many more questions will doubtless be answered soon, as the epic Smallville series finale is very nearly upon us. Whatever changed his mind, I'm super-psyched that the excellent Rosenbaum will be back to send the series off in style.

"Are you not entertained?"

In the trailer for Friday's new episode of Smallville, Clark and Green Arrow enter the Phantom Zone to find out who's been releasing criminals, only to find Zod reigning in this Kryptonian Hell and somehow they end up dressed as gladiators while he sits back and grins, suggesting the stage is set for them to battle for his amusement.

And that's why we don't bring guests to the Phantom Zone! Oh Clark, when you gonna learn?

The new Smallville episode, "Dominion," airs Friday at 8:00 p.m. on The CW.

The greatest hero you've never heard of! Seriously, his sensitive, wanting-to-improve, truly good guy exterior aside, Booster Gold is truly a hero for our times. Our fame-for-its-own-sake, Foursquare checking-in, Rebecca Black/Donald Trump, self-aggrandizing, sorry-ass times.

But we love the big lug. Lord knows I do. (Booster, not Trump. Trump can kiss my ass.)

So I'm super-psyched that the Blue and the Gold, Booster Gold and Blue Beetle, will be making an appearance on Smallville before the ever-approaching series finale, and I have high hopes for the upcoming episode, "Booster," airing Friday (April 22).
