Smallville season 9 is upon us, and there seem to be a lot of people out there that are surprised the show is still on the air, and wonder why it hasn’t been canceled yet. I’ll tell you why, because the show has been awesome! The last couple season have been the best it has ever been. I’ve really been enjoying the story’s and characters, it’s just been a fun show to watch.
This season we will see Clark put on his first superman costume, and Brian Austin Green will join the cast as John Corben, a new Daily Planet reporter who becomes the comic-book villain Metallo. In the aftermath of an accident, Corben is mysteriously outfitted with a heart made of kryptonite.
Executive producer Kelly Souders won’t reveal the identity of his Frankenstein-esque savoir, but says Corben is turned int,
“a rough version of Metallo, a first attempt at the technology, and eventually he’ll get sleeker.”
So I assume we will see him again.
“Well of course—it’s Smallville,” she says with a laugh. “We’re actually throwing some ideas around right now in the hopes that we might be able to bring him back for another episode.”
She may not say who it is that did this to Corben, but during the Smallville panel at Comic-Con we were pretty much told that Lex isn’t really dead. So my guess is that it’s Lex. What do you think?

Aha! So Lexcorp *is* ripping off Stark Industries!
omg i thought the exact same thing when i saw that picture!
Me too! XD
I've never cared much for Clark, but if we get lots of Oliver, I''ll be happy — especially if Rosenbaum comes back, as he's why I started watching the series in the first place! I'm happy to see BAG again, too — I loved him in Terminator: TSCC!
Of course Lex isn't dead. If they destroyed Superman continuity like that they'd be drawn and quartered by rabid fans in the streets.
I'm glad he looks like a Stark Ind.'s experience gone wrong, this way I don't even feel compeled to watch Smallville just for him. True enough that I never got past season 4, it may be great right now, but it never floated by boat till then and it probably never will, it's always a bit too ludicruous.
People still watch Smallville?
nice…… bummed they canceled sarah connors, but you get brian in smallville. what a ripoff of iron man….. smallville is like golf – you liked getting out there you hit a couple of good shots and you say this isnt so bad then you start losing golf balls, hitting sand traps, drinking too much and hate it then you sink the 15 yard putt then your back to square one. please if this is the last season, make it decently consistent so i can move on with my life……. and no product placement please ie (krytonite mountain dew or and bullshit krytonite chewing gum (wtf?) ok the m dew was made up.
It is not great right now. Don't let them fool you. I just keep watching it because I have invested so much time that I just want to see the END. Please End it.
How can smallville go for 9 seasons, and Buffy only go for 7. Bring back Buffy…. Ok, I am totally off track now. Sorry.
