July 27, 2008: Geoff Johns Brings Legion of Super-Heroes to TV's "Smallville"

It was announced today at Comic-Con that the Legion of Super-Heroes is coming to TV's "Smallville" in an episode written by current "Action Comics" writer Geoff Johns. Comic Book Resources reports that Johns's script will remain true to Legion lore:

    "I think we're going to be able to stay pretty close to the origin of these characters," said Johns. "They are from 1,000 years in the future and they'll have flight rings and code names and everything else."

According to Newsarama, Johns explained that the "Smallville" Legion "will be written to fit with Smallville, and I think it's going to be a really fun challenge to approach the Legion in a different way. But with me, you know you're going to see Legion rings, and they're going to be as true to the core as possible. It's going to be the Legion of Super-Heroes."
