June 6, 2014: Bryan Q. Miller Brings "Chaos" to "Smallville" Comic Books

Smallville: Chaos "Smallville" comic book writer Brian Q. Miller spoke to ComicBookResources.com about the new "Chaos" story line which begins with Chapter 1, released digitally today. Here's a part of the interview...

    Bryan Q. Miller: In this arc, chaos is a little less about the science of the story and a little more about the very nature of what's happening in the story. A lot of things for the season are coming to a head and we have three stories happening simultaneously throughout the course of the arc. And each one is very crazy, very big and epic in its own way. Literally, by design, it is chaotic thus the title "Chaos."

    From the solicitations we know that Lex is looking to invest in Ted Kord's new supercollider experiments in the Antarctic. When we saw Ted Kord on the "Smallville" TV series, we also met Jaime Reyes -- are we going to get some Blue Beetle action in "Chaos?"

    Bryan Q. Miller: You'll see Ted, in action, in a sense. What we set up in "Smallville: Season 11" back in "Detective," which featured the first appearance of Batman, was that Bruce Wayne comes to Metropolis, he has a meeting with Lex about the joint WayneTech-Holt Corp supercollider that's being built in Antarctica. And Lex is not interested in joining the funding of that project. He has more pressing things to do. When we visited the scientific compound in Antarctica at the start of the "Argo" arc, we caught up with Booster Gold and Blue Beetle, who were serving as security. Given the events of the rest of the season, including what Lex experienced in "Alien", when he went face-to-face with one of the Monitors and saw what damage one of the Monitors could do and in an interesting way, some stuff spinning out of the events of the "Lantern" arc, which concluded last week, Lex heads to Antarctica to reconsider the prospects of joining the supercollider project but of course, to his own nefarious end.
