[Ultimate_Superman]

Well Kurt Busiek (writer on Superman comic) says they are looking to bring Chloe into the comics in 2008.

We have plans for Chloe, tentatively scheduled for 2008 -- but we're still waiting on approvals from the appropriate executive types.

Black Bush!

Yeah, this is so old, Busiek has been saying the same thing since 2005. He hasnt told me anything new here.

Personally, it all depends how they use her, she will probably be an old friend of Clark's working for a rival newspaper and has been put in charge of finding out Superman's identity.

How did I come up with that? Comics are fairly obvious.

What Darth said, Busiek has been saying he has plans for Chloe since before he got on Superman.

 

[SouLeSS]

They shouldn't put her in. Keep her out.

I'm against almost anything that further links Superman comics to the steaming pile of feces that is Smallville, but Chloe's actually the one part of the show that hasn't completely sucked in every episode. Granted, I quit watching it a while back, but she seemed like a reasonably good character, at least by comparison, when I did watch it.

You can tell how much porn people watch by the way they write coming/come.

She's probably the best character on the show right now, specifically because they raped Lex of his manhood on the show. But they seem to be ****ing her character up now by implying she is a metero freak.

Chloe also has the patented Chloevage.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Patented, huh? Must be nice.

I liked how she served as a nice counterpoint to Lois' vapid ditziness, too.

 

[Mee]

I'll try to contain my excitement.

 

[sethcohen]

i wish they would just keep the crap from the movies and tv out of the comic... it really doesnt bring in new readers... it only serves to piss off the dedicated ones...

 

[Darthphere]

It doesn't piss me off, since the character would probably just share the name and some of her mechanisms.

 

[sethcohen]

i will concede that if chloe was the only thing to crossover from smallville i wouldnt mind... but unfortunately these things tend to be floodgates...

 

[yenaled]

Yeah! Get rid of Kryptonite and Perry White too!

Death to outside influence. Keep our comics pure.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

She better have a sweet rack like Smallville Chloe

You mean like a Kung-Fu Grip?

You mean like a Kung-Fu Grip?

Karate chop action.

Hawt.

i knew someone would bring up kryptonite! haha! anyway... back in the days perry and kryptonite were borrowed from other media, the portrayal of our beloved comic characters for the most part happened to stay very true to the character and ideas while every once in a while adding in something useful... now-a-days its common practice for movies and television to deviate heavily from the source material, many times producing something that is unsatisfactory to the original audience (supes returns? recent seasons of smallville). unfortunately some people dont seem to be able to differentiate fairly good elements (like chloe) from the bad (donner run on AC anyone?) and think any idea from another medium is acceptable to add because, hey, its a broader audience! but in reality it isnt... at the end of the day most of those people that didnt buy comics, still wont buy comics... and most people like me that do, will drop garbage like action comics

 

[Primal Slayer]

Maybe she will be the new Jimmy

 

[Not Jake]

Pfft Chloe quit being cute after season 3. Her hips balooned after that season. I watch Smallville.

 

[BrianWilly]

Maybe she's what we're counting down to.

 

[Mister J]

Most of the time, I can't stand Chloe. She's used as a crutch to speed along the ep or conveniently tie-up plot lines. She should be working for friggin' NASA or something. Busiek's been on this kick forever, so I just shrug it off until I see something concrete.

On the other hand, if they bring her in, there's the ever-minute possibility that she could kill her off. That might prove satisfying. Hmm.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

That deserves at least three 's as well as the . Also, you can never make fun of me for anything ever again because even you know that watching Smallville is worse than anything I do.

She's going to be in a COMIC BOOK, of course she's going to have a sweet rack.
