SMALLVILLE SPIN-OFFS?

Now that the "Justice" episode of The CW's Smallville has aired -- with Green Arrow, Aquman, Cyborg and Impulse off on a global mission to stop 33.1 bases -- the open-ended conclusion begs the question:

Will there be a Green Arrow or Justice League spin-off?

The Continuum reached Smallville executive producer Al Gough on Friday and he responded with the following comment:

"No plans for the moment for a Green Arrow spin-off. Sorry," he said. "No plans to bring the entire Justice League back this season but you may see several members toward the end of the season!"

This is the first corroboration of an earlier Continuum report that DC heroes would return to the show this season. This will likely happen in the 17th and/or 19th episodes of the season.

ASPEN COMICS' FATHOM: KIANI

In the first of what it calls "many new projects in 2007," Aspen Comics is launching Fathom: Kiani with a #0 issue this month.

The mini-series -- written by Vince Hernadez with art by Marcus To and colors by Peter Stiegerwald -- will bridge the gap between the Fathom: Volume Two and Fathom: Volume Three.

"It's obvious since her debut in Fathom, that Kiani demanded her own series," Aspen's Michael Turner said. "The fan's reaction to her was huge, and we're more than happy to satisfy their demand. The book will be both a great jumping on point for new Fathom readers, yet long-time followers will see many of their burning questions finally answered!

"This series sets the stage for Fathom: Volume Three in a big way. Fathom fans be warned: expect the unexpected!"

The zero issue will feature covers by To and Steigerwald, and a special teaser cover variant by Turner and Steigerwald.

Fathom: Kiani #1 is scheduled for March, with a regular cover by To and Steigerwald and variant covers by Turner and Caldwell. Future cover artists include Andy Park and Randy Green.

Aspen also announced that Fathom: Volume 2: Into the Deep will be released in hardcover and standard trade paperback formats in April.
