Superman costume to appear on SMALLVILLE after all

Warner bros reps are grabbing random people at the show and giving them a sneak peek at the new Superman costume for Smallville Me and friends were grabbed by one girl (details below) and taken to a room (down the stairs next to the giant starbucks) and shown it.

it's gobsmackingly awesome! no spandex it looked like leather, its one suit, the top is blue at front and back, red on sides and arms, the trousers are blue at the front and back, red at sides. the superman symbol on the chest protruding out, its red. no cape. it was on a stand we could walk around.

There were no photos allowed, but the lady (name Rosie, slightly bigger build, brown hair) said we could tell others at show, to build hype. They're showing random people the suit throughout today, tomorrow and Saturday, and sunday Tom Welling is flying in just to wear it when its unveilled at for Smallville presentation on sunday.

Almost sounds like this...

I always kind of assumed it would show up eventually.

Still, I've seen exactly two episodes in the show's entire run, and that's probably not going to change anytime soon.
 
What sort of fucked up world is it where Welling is ashamed he is Superman when Burt Ward is still opening Supermarkets in his full Robin kit while pushing 70.

Perhaps Welling doesn't want to be opening supermarkets in his Superman costume when he's pushing 70?

Also, Welling is known for being very media-shy. For him to come to one of his first cons (if not his first) - and one of the biggest cons of the year - dressed in a Superman costume would be very unlikely.
 
Unlikely, yes, but it would provide a lot of buzz and certainly generate big ratings for the season premiere.
 
The episode will be a dream episode of a future where everyone wears the Superman costume... except for Welling.

I am not saying that it is out of the realm of possibility, nor that it might happen in the show. I would just be surprised to learn if he comes to the con wearing the costume.

Would that mean that Welling would be Bicycle Repair Man?
 
Its been known for a few weeks now that the premire episode of nine will be called Savior and yes Kelly did have an interview where she stated that we would see the sheild at some point this season. Since Clark "Killed" himself in the season eight finale its possible he will return as Superman like figure.
 
"Dead? Been there, done that, Not impressed."

John Sheridan.

Seriously, Clark has died, or seemed to have died so often, if not in conjunction with season book ends it's not funny, that why Should anyone be so impressed right now by this one trick pony doing his one trick for the tenth time?

Now if Michael Rosenbaum showed up to a convention dressed as Superman, that would be noteworthy and funny as hell.

"Yeah, I like killed him, he cried like a little bitch, and then I stole his powers, and his clothes, y'know he actually still wore underwear under his over wear under wear, double bagging wierdo, but I'm not a show off, so um, yeah... HELLO SAN DIEGO!"

Welling will be lucky to get a supermarket opening when he's 70.
Why so serious? Welling has probably made 100 times more money than Burt Ward ever made. :lol:
 
Wow...the Sunday Smallville presentation should be REALLY interesting then if Tom is showing up! I think this is like his first ever Comic Con or convention ever! Maybe they are planning on doing something with the suit?

Or it's just as possible that they may announce the rumors of a Smallville film were true.

Though I am more interested suddenly and think it may happen.

Unless Welling buys a home shaped like the Enterprise or a Zeppelin he's fine.

He'll be probably raking in syndication money for life. I don't know why, but him as co-producer seems funny.
