Smallville 11.1 - Guardian - Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

[BritishChap007]

Just rewatched the finale and I have to say: it gets better every time. Remarkably satisfying.

 

[KalKai]

It's out!

 

[John Locke]

Why was it so short? It was awesome. I didn't want it to end.

 

[Prison Mike]

Just bought the comic. Not bad for 99 cents. I'm going to start reading it now!

EDIT: yeah. that was way too short

 

[KalKai]

Because it's 99 cents, and you can't have 50 pages.

 

[KalKai]

I'll post the epic imagery:

 

[Webhead2006]

Sweet can't wait for print release. How many pages was the digital verison.

 

[Prison Mike]

On the upside, I was ready to shuck out $2 or $3 for one issue so I was glad it's only 99 cents.

Webhead, the digital version said it was 22 pages but it went by pretty fast!

 

[The Incredible Hulk]

Super Tom looks great!

 

[O'Haire]

Was a nice little preview. Got me looking forward to the full issue.

 

[Zing79]

We're done here

That is all

 

[Webhead2006]

Thanks mike, was just wondering on length when you guys said it was short. Also still does any one know how print thing is going to be like. Will it be like a standard comic, or something akin to a graphic novel?

 

[Young Superman]

I'll post the epic imagery:

That actually looks like Tom.

 

[BritishChap007]

Just read it. Awesome! Can't wait for next week. Smallville is back!!

 

[John Locke]

On the upside, I was ready to shuck out $2 or $3 for one issue so I was glad it's only 99 cents.

Webhead, the digital version said it was 22 pages but it went by pretty fast!

It was 22 panels not pages. Depending how many panels can be on a page it was pretty short.

 

[kloker]

It's ten pages if you assemble the panels.

 

[Webhead2006]

Hmm that is short lol. But I guess once its all assembled into print version it will be longer.

 

[The Caped Knight]

Ah Lois

 

[Young Superman]

Ah Lois

 

[Webhead2006]

Sweet lois image.

 

[Kryptonian Warrior]

It would be nice if we eventually get some sort of reaction from the cast. Also, do the cast members get paid for this? I would think so, but ya never know.

 

[Webhead2006]

Probably doesnt get paid for this. since when they signed for series they gave the rights to use there image/voice/etc..... But i would love to hear from castmates on what they think of the comic. I am sure we will hear something in coming weeks.

 

[Prison Mike]

I don't think the cast would get paid for this. It's not like they own the characters.

 

[The Incredible Hulk]

When the cast signed their contracts for the show they likely agreed to let WB/DC use their likenesses for any and all show-related materials, merchandise, etc. This most likely falls under that even though the televised show has ended.

 

[Lead Cenobite]

Did DC have to get permission from Christopher Reeve's estate whenever Gary Frank decided to draw Superman to look like him?
