In what can only be described as a shocking and amazing turn of events, Michael Rosenbaum is coming back to Smallville as Lex Luthor!
The disappointing end to the seventh season, the last time we saw Rosenbaum as Lex.
The rumor mill had it that the actor had actually declined a return to the show, but it was reported late Friday night that he is indeed returning for the series finale to reprise his role. Series star Tom Welling mentioned at Comic Con that he was actively trying to get Rosenbaum to return to the show. Meanwhile, producers Brian Petersen and Kelly Souders have been playing coy, mentioning that we’d have to wait and see if he would return.
In a statement, Rosenbaum announced his return and his reasons for doing so:
“I’m delighted to return for the series finale. I’m simply doing it for all of...

"Smallville" shares a good first look at two members of Justice Society of America (Jsa) who will appear in the two-hour event next year. Brent Stait and Britt Irvin dressed up in costume to portray Doctor Fate and Stargirl respectively in episode "Absolute Justice", airing February 5.
Doctor Fate, in the comic version, possesses mystical powers which can be associated to sorcery. With the Helmet of Nabu, he is resistant to injury and has super power strength. Meanwhile, Stargirl is a trained gymnastic and thus she has the agility needed to fight. She also has a Cosmic Converter Belt which can shoot stars.
Along with the still of Fate and Stargirl, The CW also releases the one that shows a confrontation between Hawkman and Green Arrow. "They have completely different views on just about everything you can imagine. Hawkman has this sort of antiquated, conservative point of view, while Oliver is the 'liberal bleeding heart'.
