Classic Superman suit seen in Smallville season 10 trailer

[Werewolf]

I wonder if Clark will actually wear it.

Too much to hope for, but if it happens.....my loyalty will not have been misplaced!

Amazingly, as a Superman fanboy and mark, I have never seen even one episode of this show. I had no interest in Superman 90210, which is how I really saw it. I still kinda do. Now, if they actually get a suit on him, I may tune in. It does look like the Returns movie suit, though. Maybe it's a subliminal tie-in.

Well, that was quite the little trailer.

[Bruce Banner]

I seriously cannot abide this show.

[Earth 2 Chris]

It almost looked like he had the cape on there at the end.

I bet we won't see him in the suit until the last episode, if that, but who knows?

Last year was one of the best seasons. I hope they go out with a bang.

Looks like he was wearing a cape and they kinda did a homage with the Daily planet building shot that was in the Chris Reeve movie

[Earth 2 Chris]

Too bad it's the Routh suit. I never quite warmed up to the embossed "S" and the darker colors.

But I'll take it!

bout time, I hope it makes an appearance early on

I do like the hint that Lois is actually directly involved in the origin of Clark in the Superman outfit and the suggestion that she's be a partner rather than the traditional clueless always trying to find out his identity thing.

It's more in line with their contemporary portrayal as partner/spouse.

I'm kind of hoping for some kind of Legion of Doom/Superman Revenge Squad scenario with Brainiac, Zod, Luthor etc banding together to take him out and the JLA and JSA stepping in to lend a hand. They probably don't have a budget for all that in one episode, but maybe a Justice League Unlimited type thing spread out over the season?

Smallville is probably still looking around for what to spin out into it's own show. I'm really surprised they haven't spun out Green Arrow concurrently with the final season of Smallville.

I still never seen one episode and don't plan too.

I put smallville in the same catagory i'd put all the Star Wars prequels (on my no watch list)

I agree with you expect the "I may tune in" part...it's too little, too late for me.

I'm looking forward to this season despite all the negative-nannies here. I will not miss one episode.

The suit looks like it's bluer and the cape red not the Routh colors and the shield looks different
