SMALLVILLE

If you didn't know, last night a character on the show took a dirt nap, and virtually every item of news today is dripping in spoiler information from that event. If you haven't watched it yet, you should just skip the next paragraph. Okay? Let's go, then.

The cast member who died was interviewed, and Kryptonsite was johnny-on-the-spot in capturing it all. Producer Al Gough also weighed in with praise for the thespian and details on the whys and wherefores.

All done with that? Great. Kryptonsite also has spoilers for the season's 18th episode "Fragile," and an official network description of the upcoming episode "Tomb." Finally, they have screen captures of next week's vigilante-themed episode "Vengeance."

X-MEN 3Can Magazine has compiled a list of characters in the next mutant minded movie, based on reports that have been released, and it's fairly comprehensive, discussing what role each one will play, but misses the Multiple Man and several other favorites known to have cameos.

TRUTH, JUSTICE AND THE AMERICAN WAY?

The George Reeves biopic starring Ben Affleck has been forced to change its title, based on threats of legal action by AOL Time Warner. The film is in post-production and also stars Adrien Brody, Diane Lane and Bob Hoskins. They have not settled on a title as of press time.

THAT'S A WRAP

Here's where you get in on the action. Did you see a link we didn't catch? Have you snuck into a closed movie set, and have inside data? Maybe your cousin is dating somebody who knows something, and they had to tell you? Whatever it is, we wanna know it all -- fire off an email and let us know whether you want your name used or your contributions to geekdom to go down anonymously. Broadcasting live from Los Angeles, this is novelist/reviewer/karaoke host/all-around lunatic Hannibal Tabu saying thanks for your time and indulgence, you won't see comics reviews from me for the next two weeks, I'm told, and [tagline sent back to development hell until something hipper can be dreamed up].
