Eventually, talk shifted to the Justice Society of America and their TV counterparts.  Geoff Johns was quoted saying, "They do appear again at the end of season on Smallville. The hope is for every DC character to appear outside the comic books.  Correctly."

If seeing them on our small screens once was truly an amazing experience, imagine watching them return.  Even Michael Shanks who plays the JSA's Hawkman admitted how his character will be back to teach Clark a thing or two about the hero business.

Talking to The Huffington Post back in November, Shanks explained: "The way it's set up there is a strong possibility that there could be more.  I don't know where they're going with their season arc, but they certainly set the table.  They've left that possibility wide open."

He also mentioned back then that Hawkman could be the key to Clark's ability to fly.  Of course, our budding superhero still requires a mentor these days and Shanks' character could be it.

The Man of Steel is certainly going to need more control of his powers, since Geoff Johns hinted that even more villains are on the way.  The "forces of Apokolips" is on the tip of fans' tongues and on the writer's Twitter account.  Can anyone guess what this dark, dark clue means?
