In its ninth season, Smallville has done an impressive job of rebounding creatively, with the show more fully embracing the Superman legacy. This Friday night, February 5th, the CW will present the two-hour “movie” event, Absolute Justice, in whick Clark encounters members of the Justice Society of America. Among those heroes is Carter Hall/Hawkman, portrayed by Stargate’s Michael Shanks. In the first part of a four-part conversation, the actor discusses his appearance on the show.
Look for part two on Tuesday.

Michael is so thorough, so expressive in his face and voice, so pro, I expect he will bring a reality dimension to Hawkman that could make the show more than a Friday night TV session. I think I could get interested in who this superhero is, even care about how he is driven to return. Realize this is comic book, yet, I could get involved in the story if the actors make it serious! Michael brings depth, even in movies I thought were trite,I found myself wanting to see his reaction, and marveled at how I could follow his expressions, identify and suddenly I cared! Eager to see this–won’t miss it! If Michael does as he did with Victor in BURN NOTICE, or Jimmy in SANCTUARY, or Daniel in FIRST ONES and LIFEBOAT on SG1, I will be getting the DVD.
