Stop reading now if you don't want to be spoiled regarding the beginning of season eight of
Smallville. We already know that the new season takes a different direction, as
Lana Lang goes part-time,
Lex Luthor is gone and
Doomsday is in. At least
Allison Mack is staying.
Spoilers after the jump ...
(S07E11) Black Canary has entered the universe of
Smallville, and she's totally goth. She's a pawn of Lex Luthor, and in her secret identity she is apparently that universe's version of Ann Coulter.
I've read Black Canary in the comic books and in that medium she's never been a knife-thrower. She also apparently has super-leaping powers. Perhaps she gained them in the short-lived series
Birds of Prey.
Here's a gallery of images from the episode. More review follows after the jump.
