The Trials of SMALLVILLE Part 5 — Heroes of the DCU

Host Anthony Desiato and guest V Ken Marion (BATTLE CHRONICLE SOL-STRYKER) dig into SMALLVILLE's television adaptations of iconic DC superheroes: Flash (Impulse here), Aquaman, Cyborg, Green Arrow, Martian Manhunter, Black Canary, the Legion of Super-Heroes, Zatanna, the Wonder Twins, the Justice Society of America, and Booster Gold.

They discuss how the series brought each character to life, what a viewing event it was — in a pre-Arrowverse/DCEU landcape — for the budding Justice League to form, and what role each hero played in Clark's larger journey toward becoming Superman.
