IGN TV has recently learned the identities of the three members of the Justice Society who will be making an appearance in the episode.

The characters that will appear are:

1. Hawkman, played by Michael Shanks, who brings his own notable sci-fi following to the role, and has recently appeared in the series Burn Notice, but is best known for his role as Daniel Jackson on Stargate SG-1.

2. Doctor Fate, played by Brent Stait, who had an ongoing role on Andromeda as Rev Bem. Stait also has experience in the Stargate world, having guest starred on Stargate Atlantis and appearing in the direct-to-DVD movie Stargate SG-1: Children of the Gods.



3. Fancast has now confirmed that the third member will be Stargirl, which Geoff Johns, the writer of the episode and popular Comic Book writer, had all but ensured in a recent twitter report he shared. Stargirl will be played by Britt Irvin.

Look for the episode featuring these 3 characters sometime in January.


InTylerWeTrust82- Well, I think this is good news. I was a bit disappointed that Jay Garrick wouldn't be in the episode, and that Stargirl would be. But I'm surprised they're using Hawkman and Doctor Fate, two great characters from the Society. I am looking forward to this episode.

This has potential. I was watching Shanks in Burn Notice a while back, thinkin he would be a good choice for Cap.

I know it would have been a longshot... but assuming Dr. Fate wears his suit, I would have liked to hear Oded Fehr's voice.

While I'm sure the writing will be excellent, with Geoff Johns, having Hawkman, Doctor Fate, and Stargirl hardly makes up a JSA episode. Where the hell are Flash and GL?

Secondly, Michael Shanks as Hawkman? No, please.

Wow, I never would've guessed they would use Hawkman! This really puts some history into the little "Smallville Universe". That is, if they stick with the WWII origins of Hawkman and Dr. Fate(probably my 2 favorite JSAers).

When does this episode air ?

Still would have been cool to see Jay Garrick. The question now is are they gonna implement the no-fly rule on these three heroes. That would reaaly suck.

Johns says "Hawkman will have wings, a big mace and he and Green Arrow won't get along at all".

Cant believe their gonna use Hawkman, they have had good effects this season, so i'm hoping they wil do him some justice. Please smallville dont [frick] up Hawkman, he's one of my favourite characters ever.

THough using STAR GIRL before CLARK is even SUPERMAN is a sh1t idea, well done WB, why not use STAR MAN!!!!!

I kinda understand them using Stargirl.The average person may not know, but Johns created Stargirl in memory of his sister, Courtney, who had passed away.So that character is very close to him.

YOU GOTTA ADMIT THEY TOOK LIBERTIES BUT ITS LIKE THEY ARE BRINGING BACK THE "COMIC BOOK" NOT ENTIRELY THEY WAY THE FANBOYS WANT IT TO BE...BUT ENUFF TO KEEP THE GENERAL PUBLIC AND SUPERMAN FANS INTRESTED..MY QUESTION IS..ARE THEY DOING THE COSTUMES? CAUSE DOC FATES HELMET IS PRETTY SICK, HAWKMAN'S IS ICONIC, WILL HE SPORT THE WINGS?...IF THEY REALLY BRING COMIC BOOK TO THIS SHOW I WILL JIZZ IN MY PANTS.

WOW....the hate for this show has DEFINATELY decreased this season.....WITH GOOD REASON!!!

This ep looks great! Love the casting (I have a softspot for any STARGATE alums)! I just hope this season keeps rollin and doesn't take a turn for the worse (Super-powered LANA???).

THIS IS INSANE!!! I'm loving this season. I almost lost hope last year with the intro of Doomsday, but with the JLA AND JSA making their way in... It HAS to be better then what we saw last season. Plus, Michael Shanks as Hawkman is a great idea, IMO. I would have loved to have seen my favourite JSA members (The Flash Jay Garrick, Green Lantern Alan Scott).

kool hawkman cant wait so see how they do his character
BubbaDude
BubbaDude - 10/20/2009, 8:17 PM
Maybe they'll do the Earth II thing? That would be reasonable since noone in Smallville seems to remember any previous heroes, or maybe I missed that episode.

When does this one air?????

superman7 - 10/20/2009, 9:24 PM
I dont care what anyone says. Im effing psyched for this episode. sucks that it doesnt air till january.

@ InSpace:
I think it would be pretty shitty to have yet another kryptonian that can fly before clark. Although I would like to see which hot girl Smallville would cast to wear a clevage costume.

superman7 - 10/20/2009, 9:25 PM
And Britt Irvin looks like a great (and hot) star girl.
