We received an e-mail today from the editor of Smallville: The Official Magazine, clearing up some rumors and confirming that issue #34 is in the final issue but detailing the contents of the magazine's final two issues.
Here is what he had to say:
Hi Smallville fans,
We here at Smallville Magazine know that there have been many rumors and posts about the future of the title. So, to let everyone know where things stand, we sadly can confirm that Smallville Magazine will shortly be coming to its end after a long and successful run.
The good news, however, is that there are still two issues left to go! Smallville Magazine #33 (UK #29) will hit stores on September 29th in the US and Canada, and 8th October in the UK, rather than the previously advertised dates. We thought it better to coincide with the start of Smallville season nine rather than during the summer hiatus. Then, Smallville Magazine #34 (#30 in the UK) will be out in the US and Canada on November 24th, and in the UK on 3rd December.
We hope you’ll join us for our final two issues, as we have some great features and interviews coming up as always. First up is our ‘Villains’ special for #33, when we’ll be talking to Sam Witwer (Davis Bloome) and Cassidy Freeman (Tess Mercer), getting an inside look at how the Doomsday suit was made, and meeting the Injustice Gang, among other treats. Then, we’ll be wrapping things up with a special souvenir issue for #34 that we know you won’t want to miss!
Thanks for all your support, and we hope you enjoy our upcoming issues.
Best wishes,
Neil Edwards
Editor
