Oh For @#$%’s Sake, Smallville’s Getting a Season 11 Comic
 |
Smallville Fans Rejoice! New Comic Book Series, SMALLVILLE SEASON 11, to Pick Up Where Show Left Off
Fans of the smash-hit TV series Smallville haven’t had much to
cheer about since the show ended its critically acclaimed 10-year run on
The CW last May. That’s all going to change with the upcoming new
comic book series from DC Entertainment: SMALLVILLE SEASON 11. Written
by former Smallville show scribe Bryan Q. Miller, the new
digital first series will be published digitally on April 13, 2012, with
new digital chapters released weekly thereafter.

Holy shit, are you fucking kidding me? Smallville: Season 11, the comic? The show was on for 10 fucking seasons. There is nothing more to say about the Smallville universe. Nothing. And if people want to read the adventures of Clark Kent actually being Superman, shouldn’t you be directing them to, oh, I don’t know, the actual fucking Superman comic? Who is this for? The .00001% of the population that thinks, “Boy, I’d like to read a comic about Superman, just as long as it’s not that awful Superman comic”? I guarantee you it’s the same people who also think, “Boy, I wonder why that Kristen Kreuk’s career hasn’t taken off yet. I thought she was terrific as Chun Li.”
