The results are in, and Absolute Justice, The CW’s two-hour Smallville event introducing the Justice Society, is considered a ratings winner for the netlet. Considering that The CW sent Smallville to the Friday night graveyard, this show simply refuses to die. Chances are, Clark and company are gonna make it a full decade on the [...]

I suspect this is another instance where a well-known DC comics character has been adapted into the “Smallville” universe. I’m simply not versed enough in the comics canon to know or even care. Within the context of the episode Roulette serves a specific and time-honored purpose, and while her own characterization was a bit sparse, [...]

Apparently the Wonder Twins are the latest Super Friends to make an appearance on Smallville this season.
