Which of these would make the best Smallville Spinoff
j_sundude
07-03-2007, 08:31 AM
The only spinoff of Smallville should be "Metropolis" and show how Clark is Superman!
Ireallylikethisshow
07-03-2007, 09:42 AM
Out all of those options... I'd go with Lois.
'Cause that automatically means "LnC" SV style, and that's like "Metropolis" to me... :D

I like the idea of a Green Arrow Spinoff, and Chloe would be a regular in it.

Yeah I wouldn't mind a Green Arrow Spin-off. I thought more people would have chosen a Chloe spin-off and was surprised to see Green Arrow leading. The problem I have with the other characters is that there not leading characters and wouldn't be able to deal with being the core character. Similar to my views on Spike from Buffy he was my favorite character but wouldn't be able to hand his own show IMO.

A Lois Lane Spin-off would be great.

None of those should get their own shows, worse come to worse Impulse should get a show, or at least at JL show but not a plain old green arrow show.

Is a no brainer, Green Arrow would be the best spinoff from the poll options, but I rather see a Justice League series, it would be a blast if it is well written.
I would like to see a Martian Manhunter spinoff

I'm not too big on a justice league spinoff because tom welling probably wouldn't want to do it, so they'd cast someone else and it wouldn't be the same
Clana_4ever2005
07-04-2007, 07:59 AM
I'm not into the JL spinoff because if they are going to make a JL series I want it to be right. Smallville's "Justice League" is sadly not the justice league i'd like to see.
Alexius
07-04-2007, 09:46 AM
A JL series could work if they have a great casting, excellent writers and the budget behind it, but a big network should be involved, not CW, I don't think they have enough means to get it done.
redraven
07-04-2007, 11:43 AM
I chose the Green Arrow option, because it would actually be interesting, and I don't think Chloe, Lois, or Lana could carry their own show.
Kal26
07-04-2007, 11:58 AM
I didn't vote for any of the options. I would want a continuation of the story in metropolis, a supergirl spin off, or impulse. Maybe even a teen titans using smallvilles impulse, and cyborg.

Metropollis Spinoff!!! That's why I voted for Lois Lane.

Hell, half of Season 6 was a Green Arrow show. We had 7 episodes worth of Justin Hartley being forced down Smallville and the CW's throat because of the failed Aquaman pilot, an 8th episode with a body-double (Combat), more references of him than we needed in the second half of the season, and of course his leading role in the Queen Chronicles and J&D segments. I think all that did for me was assure that I do not want a Green Arrow spin-off. And now we gotta put up with his own special feature on the upcoming DVD release... >_>;;

Chloe and Lana Spinoff.
I don't care what they would do there I would still watch it :D

07-06-2007, 04:47 AM
To be honest I don't think any spin-off would be very good; TBTB need to sort out Smallville before they start any new ones.
"Metropolis" spin-off: Tom Welling probably wouldn't be willing to do it. He doesn't want to be type cast as Superman and he's already played Clark for 6 years.
Justice League spin-off: Again, I doubt Tom would want to do it. Plus there would be MAJOR budget issues for such a show. And WB might not want to give the series the green light if the rumors of a Justice League movie are true (that's the same reason a Batman TV series never happened).
Supergirl spin-off: It could happen but I don't think it's something I'd be interested in. Presumably it would try to target a female audience and be more of a soap/drama than Smallville is.
Green Arrow spinoff: Although he was popular with Smallville viewers I don't think GA is big enough for his own show (I'm speaking as someone from the UK; I don't know if he's more popular in America or not but he's pretty much unknown here).
MetroGirl06
07-06-2007, 08:58 AM
None of the options interest me. I would rather go with a JL, Supergirl, or Martian Manhunter spin-off.

I didn't like the idea of a green arrow spin off for that reason as well. I really don't know if I would be interested enough to watch that actor on a weekly basis. I just realized that you may have been talking about the character of GA though, and I agree with that too. I like the character, but he has always seemed too much like batman, and robin hood for me to take him too seriously as his own person. It is interesting to me that the wb thought about doing this spin off, and even an aqua man spin off, both using the actor that played GA on smallville (this is just what I've been told). I don't know why they wouldn't get the same person that played AM on smallville to play him on the spin off. I liked him better than the guy who played GA.

If they cast Phil Morris as MM for a Martian Manhunter spinoff there would probably be a lot of comparisons to Shaft :lol: But still I think he'd make the most interesting take on John Jones to date. And the oreo obsession would be so funny to contrast the serious situations he gets in. When you think about it, a MM show would be like a mixture of CSI and Heroes.

As sad as it is, Smallville will be over one day. When they day comes I hope they continue it with a spin off. I like the Metropolis idea. As for characters, my 1st thought was a Chloe spin off, but I think a Green Arrow spin off would be cool too.

11-16-2007, 07:07 AM
Gotta say Green Arrow--though shouldn't we add Supergirl to the list? :)

11-16-2007, 05:40 PM
Supergirl spinoff plz
ClarkyBoy14
11-17-2007, 08:19 AM
Out of the list I'd most like to see GA.
But Supergirl would be great too.
Or how about a combination w/ Kara and Ollie?
superman07
11-27-2007, 03:47 PM
I'd Like a Metropolis spinoff or depending how Kara goes the rest of the season(i like her so far) a Supergirl spinoff wouldnt be too bad either
Coyote
12-23-2007, 03:56 PM
Supergirl would be the most realistic alternative for a WB series, with Martian Manhunter, Jimmy Olsen, and maybe Chloe as supporting characters.

12-25-2007, 07:52 AM
From the recent news, it sounds like the writers' strike won't be ending anytime soon, meaning that pilot season could be completely ruined (meaning no new scripted series next season). So does anyone think that, out of desperation for a new series, the CW would approach Al and Miles to create a Kara or Ollie spin-off w/o seeing a pilot? They've seen enough of their characters on SV to know what they're like. It's kinda far-fetched, but does anyone think it's possible?
Theshadow129x
02-05-2008, 06:39 PM
I honestly would not wish for a Smallville spinoff after the way this show was handled. They give little or no explanation for certain events. And they completely crap on the main characters. If someone at dc were gonna helm the show like Geoff Johns then yeah I'll watch it, but someone that wants to make a teen drama out of the characters like Al/Miles then I wont watch it at all.

Could some explain to me how a Lana Lang spin-off would be?
smallville0001
02-06-2008, 11:47 AM
I don't know out of those choices, it will be kind of hard to do a spin-off about someone who is in the show with Clark all the time. On that note, i would probably say Green Arrow spin-off!

If Lana got a spin-off, wtf would it be about? :confused: It'd probably be called Destroying Relationships with Lana Lang or something. :lol:

Maybe she gets impregnated by Bizarro and she decides to move some place where nobody knows her and raise her superkid?

Green Arrow! Justin Hartley rocks! :)
Call me negative, but NONE! I don't want anything to get famous after Smallville is over, if so.. they better get new actors, no one from smallville ... wel in that case it won't be a spin off ? whatever... No!:\
wildenchantress_kt
02-09-2008, 03:54 AM
Green arrow spinoff would be the most likely. You could set it in Star City. I don't think that anyone would want Justin Hartley to star. He was the lead in the Aquaman TV pilot and that didn't get picked up so what are the odds of a Green Arrow pilot getting picked up.

I would. He's already expressed interest in the idea. IMO, he's good at it and it wouldn't be a true spin-off w/o him.
Btw, Aquaman would have been picked up had it not been for the merger. ;)

I think the CW is maybe planing a Justice League series after the end of smallville. I have been hearing rumors on several forums and some people agree that its a possible future for the franchise. When you think about it, they have been building up the show with JL characters and hinting the creation of JL. And i also allows for full-fledged CK to roam around and be superman not superboy. I mean they already have the cast and basis for the show so?
I think im on to something here, Or maybe just wishful thinking.

A Justice League show would be awesome, especially if it started after "Smallville" ends, so I'll still my weekly Superman fix....
Just not on the CW!
They can barely afford to show Clark's powers alone on SV, how could they possibly show MULTIPLE heroes in action?

I dont even think they can use the phrase "Justice League" on SV because of the movie studios.
Assuming there was no conflict with the studios, I still don't know if I'd like a JL series based off Smallville.
The only cool character is JH and GA.
I like Kyle Gallner's Impulse but I can't see him as the real Flash.
And if the series takes place after SV, after Clark goes off to the Fortress in the finale, obviously Clark won't be able to appear in the series.
So I'd rather a JL series just be a complete reboot instead of a spinoff. A new universe. New cast.
Al/Miles' "Mercy Reef" seemed like a fresh start too, that didnt fall into continuity with Smallville..so it seems like the likely direction.

Yeah CW is wrong for the show.
Maybe Fox would be better.
Terminator is WB but Fox still secured the rights to air Sarah Connor, so it certainly IS possible.
Fox also airs my favorite show ever, 24. The most badass show on TV.
If a Justice League series can be 1/10 of how sic 24 is, I'd be happy... but it has no chance of being great on CW.

With Season 8 possibly being its last, some may want Smallville (or parts of it anyway) to survive or continue on in some way. You might be one of those people.
So here's your chance to post your "dream spinoff" idea. Feel free to include a possible name for your series idea and a brief (or detailed) description of what your dream spinoff series would look like, if you wish.
(You can be serious or humorous, doesn't matter.)

I'd love to see a Superman spinoff but Tom Welling said he won't do it and I couldn't watch a Superman show without Lex. So I chose the Justice League.
I would love...LOVE...to see a Batman show that shows the death of Robin II (Jason Todd) by the Joker in the Pilot as a flashback & show Bruce Wayne gets darker & darker and harder on himself because of it. And I would love it to include the events that happened in the comics where Jason Todd returns as Red Hood and haunts Batman once again. The dynamic between Jason (who has similar skills as Batman but believes in killing) and Batman would make for an incredible TV show. I would love to see Jason's anger of Batman not killing the Joker for what he did to him portrayed in a show.

09-28-2008, 08:40 PM
A show about the whole JLA (Green Arrow, Impulse, Aquaman, Cyborg, Watchtower, Martian Manhunter, Black Canary, and more comic heroes) would be great. And a show about just Green Arrow alone could also be real good. The best would be a show about Tom Welling flying in costume every episode.
But the last thing we need is another season about more dragging out “young” Clark Kent from becoming Superman. Tom Welling will be 33 years old next season.
Xanderman
09-29-2008, 10:13 AM
A show about the whole JLA (Green Arrow, Impulse, Aquaman, Cyborg, Watchtower, Martian Manhunter, Black Canary, and more comic heroes) would be great.Not sure if you're into it, but NBC's Heroes is already beating them to the punch in some ways. Some of the stuff that's happened this season so far in Smallville (like Tess recruiting Bette etc) is reminding me of Heroes. With Heroes though everyone's powers are basically connected in some way (evolution/brain stuff) which to me works better. I'm not a fan of comic book superhero universes being mixed together myself--I prefer universes being kept separate. The short-lived 'Birds of Prey' handled things similarly to Heroes, with a unifying concept ("meta-humans") to account for super-freaks in general. Smallville also did this for a while, with the idea of "meteor freaks". However that all changed when they brought in Bart, Aquaman, Martian Manhunter, etc, turning Smallville far more into a cartoon than it needed to be (imo).
And a show about just Green Arrow alone could also be real good.I'm with you there. Season 6 was one of my favorite seasons, and the GA/Oliver character (and actor) was a big part of that for sure. However, Justin Hartley already had his big chance to go solo (as Aquaman) before his GA stint on SV, and that series was "dead in the water" (bad pun intended) before it ever really began. For this reason he might not be given another shot to be the star of his own series--although since he and the GA character are already established/known on SV that might change things. (I saw the pilot for Aquaman with JH and thought it was promising. It could have been good.)
But the last thing we need is another season about more dragging out “young” Clark Kent from becoming Superman. Tom Welling will be 33 years old next season.For sure. He's 32 next year (in 2009) but I guess you're referring to the second half of the season next year (2010). His age is definitely showing (it's almost distracting in a way, lol). Personally I think he's already too old to even be Superman much less a young Supes/Clark Kent. If you go back to Season 1, or even Season 4, he looked so much different/younger. That's one of the biggest indicators that it's high time for Smallville to wrap things up, imo. I mean Superman's not supposed to grow old, right. He needs to look like he's in his prime, forever (to me anyway).

I have always said that they should have introduced Bruce Wayne last year, establish the character, then spin him off into the show: Gotham. Thats my 2 cents.They had their chance with "Adam Knight"...for a time it almost seemed like we did have a young Bruce W back in season 3 with Adam.

A show about the whole Justice League (including Green Arrow, Impulse, Aquaman, Cyborg, and Black Canary, and maybe a couple others) would be best. Don't get me wrong, a solo show about Green Arrow would be really good too, but a show about the whole League would be the best.

I would love to see the entire Justice League. They can each have their own story arcs to, so there would be no need for minor characters dominating screen time.
Like I said before, Tom Welling could be a guest whenever he has time off from other projects to play Superman. He could be in the suit, and already hooked up with Lois. As if there was like a year or two between the end of Smallville and the beginning of this new spin off.
----- Added 24 Minutes later -----
Superman (Lois&Clark): Already been done. And quiet frankly, I wouldn't want my Smallville associated with that show any more than it already is.
Green Arrow (alone): This would make for a good show. The character is already well known and has a great actor playing the part. Plus, from his story arcs on Smallville, the writers will already know where to go with the character.
one of: Impulse/Flash, Cyborg, Black Canary, Aquaman or Martian Manhunter (alone): My first choice would be Impulse/Flash. He was the most charismatic character on Smallville and, if I'm not wrong, RUN was the most popular of their respective individual episodes.
Kara/Supergirl: Could work, but I don't think Laura Vandervoort is a good enough actress to keep an audience. She worked well alongside Tom Welling, but I'm not sure how they will do without him.
Chloe Sullivan: Veronica Mars didn't work out that well. But I really like the concept.
Lana Lang: I actually think this would work in a very different way than Smallville's version of her. If she was like a vigilante detective or something. She has some money, so that will work in her favor. She has ambition, which is what will drive the story. She definitely has to looks.
Pete Ross: He should be paired in the Lana Lang spin off. This would give them the chance to develop a romantic relationship between the two like in the comics. But the character shouldn't get his own spin off. What will it be about? the dangers of keeping Superman's secret? Fending off meteor freaks that feed on peoples secrets?
Shelby (yes the dog): Name it "Krypto" and air it on Animal Planet?
Other: Dean Cain should play Dr. Curtis Knox in his own series. But as a good guy. I would watch it.

A Pete Ross spinoff for Pete fans….
Captain Pylar
Still longing to be special, Pete discovers a way to steal powers from "those who don't deserve them" (Pete's way of justifying mass murder). Getting the idea from his tv hero Sylar from NBC's Heroes, Pete begins eating the brains of meteor freaks to absorb their abilities, and starts calling himself Pylar. One by one, he hunts down and kills every meteor freak in Smallville. Feeling very powerful, Pete happily exclaims: "With your powers combined, I am CAPTAIN Pylar!" (Pete was also a fan of the cartoon Captain Planet--he takes a perverse pleasure in combining his fictional heroes' names in this way.)
A few scenes:
-Lana and Pete-
Lana: Oh my god....I can't believe you found me. But....how did you know I was a meteor freak?
Pete: You kidding? You're a half asian girl, from TWO WHITE PARENTS. It wudn't rocket surgery.
Lana: But...but WHY would you want MY power?? Is it really worth KILLING ME for?!??
Pete: I've ALWAYS wanted to be half asian, Lana. Always. So YES IT'S WORTH IT.
(Pete murders Lana and eats her brain. Within seconds, Pete becomes half asian. "Sometimes dreams really DO come true…" Pete says as tears of joy well up in his eyes.)
-Chloe and Pete-
Chloe: Pete, please! You don't have to do this!!
Pete: I'm tired, Chloe. I'm tired of being plain Pete. That's why I need your new super intelligence power. And while I'm at it, I'll take your old one too.
Chloe: You mean my healing power?
Pete: Yes, because I've always wanted to help people. I'm all about the love, Chloe.
Chloe: ...Just promise me you won't tell Clark how I died. It's too embarrassing.
Pete: It's a promise. What about your fiancé, Jimmy. Anything you want me to tell that fool?
Chloe: Just promise me you won't eat him too.
Pete: Damn, girl, how many promises you expect me to make today?
(Pete murders and eats Chloe, and acquires her powers.)
-Jimmy and Pete-
Jimmy: I can't BELIEVE this! You're gonna kill me TOO??!!! BUT…I DON'T HAVE ANY POWERS!!!!!!
Pete: I know. I just hate you.
(Pete murders and eats Jimmy.)
Like Jet Li in "The One", Pete believes if he consumes enough abilities, he will eventually become an unstoppable god. But only one person stands in his way---Clark Kent/Superman.

I would love to see the entire Justice League. They can each have their own story arcs to, so there would be no need for minor characters dominating screen time.
Like I said before, Tom Welling could be a guest whenever he has time off from other projects to play Superman. He could be in the suit, and already hooked up with Lois. As if there was like a year or two between the end of Smallville and the beginning of this new spin off.That would be cool if handled right. Your Tom Welling/Superman as-a-guest idea sort of reminds me of Birds of Prey, how it wasn't about Batman but he was still around (in a way anyway...he was watching over his daughter and communicating with Alfred, offscreen).

I would love a Green Arrow spin-off, that's what I would most look forward to. I think they could call it "Star City," or something like that. Of course, JH would be the lead, and I think AH as the Black Canary should be in about half of the episodes every season. Also bring in Maggie Sawyer (played by the same woman on SV) as a detective trying to bring down the GA. The first season villain could be someone like Merlyn. I also think they should bring in supporting characters like Eddie Fyers as Ollie's close friend and I think it would be interesting if Ollie was friends with one of the Green Lanters before he became the GL.
The main focuses of the series could be Ollie fighting crime in Star City as the GA, having a romantic relationship with Dinah, running Queen Ind., forming the Justice League, etc. It could also flash back to Ollie's time at Excelsiour (sp?) and on the island.
I think it would be best if the series was played a bit darker and more serious, sort of in the vein of The Dark Knight (although, not quite that dark).

(like Tess recruiting Bette etc)
Though, and I'm hoping that the Tess/Bette scene is a sign of things to come, I'd vote for a Suicide Squad series in a heartbeat.

a show about random dc heroes and villaiins would be great.
short story arc after smallville abour verious other heroes starting out. try not to do episodes about clark untill the end of the season though.
they could do all sorts of crossovers of heroes/villains.
batman should be a big one at first. mybe not officially be batman yet, just be "the dark knigt". like batman, without the bat-stuff...
set mainly in metropolis, gotham and star city i guess.
s.t.a.r labs should be init.
the word meta-human should be init.
lois and jimmy could be in most episodes maybe. whether it's about superman or not.
i would rather a DC Live-Action Universe series rather than anymore standalone heroes/villians shows. in smallville they introduced alot of heroes already, just use them plus others.

Chloe Sullivan: Veronica Mars didn't work out that well. But I really like the concept.

He wasn't booted off the show though, they wrote him off cause he wanted to leave when he found out they refused to make him the center of attention every episode, cause even though he was the worst main actor the show has seen to date, and all his focus episodes have been beyond horrible he thinks hes gods gift to the acting world and deserves more respect than he was given.

Hearing about the recent Grayson tv series and seeing all the Bruce Wayne threads. I offer to you a more unique spin off idea: Gotham Central. It was originally a comic book series based on the cops of Gotham City (and in fact the series won an Eisner award) which revolved around a the cops of Gotham City and the MCU (Major Crimes Unit). The series dealt with corruption, lesbianism and rising super-villainy in Gotham. Moreover, in the comic book series Gordon (who founded the MCU) had retired and replaced by Micheal Akins who is a good guy but becomes corrupted due to unexplained reasons. As for Batman, he rarely appeared throughout the series and when he does it is very brief. Also Maggie Sawyer also plays the part of Captain of MCU.
Now then, I believe that a live action series would work, because unlike Birds of Prey which made Batman the spine of the series, in Gotham Central the cops themselves are the main characters. Batman could be a mere shadow in the series, a shadow in the Commisioner's office, a reflection in a cops eye when he runs into trouble before cutting to another scene, the tinest hint of a cape and boot when they turn on the bat-signal before cutting to the next scene and the cops using Wayne Tech Computers.
Also there are many interesting characters to play with, Renee Montoya who was a great detective outed as a lesbian (which would get Dawn's attention) and later becomes the newest incarnation of the Question which is a way to bring in Vic Sage to the series. Crispus Allen dying and becoming the Specter (although I'm not sure religious zealots would like him). Then there's Harvey Bullock, Gordon's right hand man and Renee's partner. Those who watched Batman: The Animated Series would know how much he would bring to the show. Another character is Maggie Sawyer, in the comics she has constant arguments with her husband because she has to work overtime on certain cases and her getting to know Gotham and it's aggressiveness and comparing it with Metropolis's peaceful will be a great plot point.
So what does everyone else think?

"Acrata"
Spinoff from Smallville; centering on Andrea Rojas, whom appeared in the Smallville Season 5 episode "Vengeance" and the Internet/DVD-exclusive "Vengeance Chronicles". The main setting is in Suicide Slums of Metropolis.
Series Aim - Whereas Smallville is about Clark Kent's journies before beginning his legacy as Superman, Acrata is about Andrea Rojas' early years as the titular vigilante-come-hero; along with leaping along her path of redemption, developing unique bonds with each of the people in her life, and keeping a purpose and resolve within herself to protect the helpless of Suicide Slums.
Tagline: "She's had her heart broken, destroyed, and replaced. This ain't no farm gal with the best ideals. Acrata's journey begins!"
Pilot details:
Over 3 years since the robbery that changed her life, both because it took her Mother's life and gave her literally a new heart-beating lease on it, Andrea Rojas roams the streets of Suicide Slums helping the weak and frightened from similar evils and muggers. Struggling not to succumb to her vengeful impulses in striking down the lowlifes, she makes each beating as quick as she can and departs the saved victim without a word. As a nameless hero whom can't assume a real life without being arrested for murder, she nevertheless continues her efforts in any way she can.
During a night of rest in her dank and powerless slum of a home, she receives a visit from Chloe Sullivan, whom relieves her with news that Lex Luthor's 33.1 operatives will no longer be hunting her or any other "different" heroes out there. However, as good of news as that is, there's even worse news; the government now has a special secretive branch hunting down all remaining criminal suspects with unusual abilities. Andrea included. Chloe mentions she can't stay in contact with her anymore, for both their safeties, although departs with a friendly hug and cell number of "Clark's".
With the number tucked away, Andrea goes back out on another night of patrolling for despicable muggers. However, when she's tracked down an apparent helpless young man screaming for help, she's caught on the receiver's end of an ambush by black clothed men attempting to capture her. Realizing these must be the government agents Chloe warned her of, Andrea defends herself with every ounce of strength she can. However, when it seems as though she'll be overwhelmed, help arrives in a surprise blast of energy knocking out several of the agents. It's Nick Yang, whom at first looks as though he's about to be shot from behind, is saved thanks to a menacing sounding figure.
Once all the agents are down, Andrea runs off to an abandoned building, where both Nick and a shirtless young man catch up with her. Andrea extends reluctant pleasantries with Nick and meets the Jeckle/Hyde meteor freak from Smallville, Byrne Moore. Byrne reveals that he was experimented on as a child in a form of test cures for sociopath-troubled kids, and that he was given a special bracelet that allows him to trigger transforming into his "freak form" (and back to his poetic/humble personality) by uttering the word "Nesting", thereby allowing him to go out in sun light. They mention having been sent by billionaire Oliver Queen to keep an eye on her and help out.
While explaining about Oliver, Nick and Byrne notice Andrea running off, but they simply let her go for the moment. Andrea, in fear that Oliver may want her in jail for murder as well, goes off back to her hideout slum. After trying to lay down for some sleep, she notices a package on her made-up bed with a card addressed to her. Shocked by the name with whom it's from, she sees that it comes from her Father, Bernardo Rojas. Bernardo apparently left Andrea's Mother not too long before the big mugging over 3 years previously. A letter with the package reveals that he knows about Andrea's abilities and her dilemma with the police, but has bestowed to her a gift.
Opening the package fully, Andrea discovers a stylized "A" silk-cloth chest plate, very small in size. According to her Father's letter, when put on bare flesh, it endows the wearer with an ancient teleporting ability whenever that person enters any natural shadow. Bernardo explains that if ever she's in a serious jam, where even her enhanced heart's powers can't help, to "run" and bring herself to a safe place. Andrea reads on that the ability will take some time to master at will, as well that she'll need to know the location of a place she teleports to, but overall she believes what her Father's written and sent her. She suddenly hears her cell phone vibrate in her suit.
Not recognizing the number, she nonetheless answers and hears that it's Nick. Andrea is instructed to meet himself and Byrne at a local restaurant for a late supper on them and to discuss their future. She agrees and before heading out, tucks away Clark's cell number in her back-pocket, as well as the emblem her Father sent into one of her boots. Arriving at the restaurant, Andrea meets with Nick and Byrne and sits down for a bite to eat. They talk about how rough life's been for all of them for the past several years, but Andrea's more interested in if they have any deeper agendas than just "looking after" her. Nick simply tells her that they're there to help with any path of redemption she may be on, as well as to hopefully help her past the killing of Snake so she can one day join the forming "League".
Out of nowhere, the Chinese partner of Snake's comes into the restaurant and demands all diners to turn over their money and goods. Andrea's ready to fight, but Nick stops her with worries that they shouldn't be so public with their abilities. The robber takes a young lady hostage at gunpoint and tells everyone she'll be the first of a dozen if they don't do what he says. But as fast as he got his point across in words, a brunette woman behind him pulls a gun out and shoots pointblank to the back of his head. Blood splatters on Andrea, whom is identified by the woman. She introduces herself as Lt. Maggie Swayer and informs her that the police have a warrant for her.
After calling in for backup, Swayer surprisingly tells Andrea and her "friends" to go, informing her that she also suspects she's the mysterious "Vengeance Angel" vigilante helping the helpless. Maggie relies to her that she has no desire to see her arrested, at least not yet anyhow, and orders her to leave before other police whom could recognize her show up. Andrea, Nick, and Byrne depart out back into an alley where they hear sirens approaching and wonder how to escape. Byrne mentions Andrea and his transformed self could probably get to the top of a building, but not without leaving Nick behind. Andrea suddenly reaches into one of her boots and pulls out the "A" emblem.
Ripping her shirt partially open, Rojas slaps it onto her bare flesh without hesitation as Byrne sees her eyes glow a strange, black color similar to his own reverted form's. She looks to the top of the highest building in sight and tells the two to follow her into a nearby shadow. Andrea commands them to grab a hold of her and she attempts with all her might to teleport. Unable to pull it off, Nick tells them to just go on without him, not understanding what she's attempting. The police cars suddenly pull up and many cops point flashlights at the huddled group, just as Andrea lets out "I leave nobody behind" and shuts her eyes tight, teleporting all of them to the top of the intended building.
Andrea breaths heavily as she marvels at what she just pulled off, hurriedly attempting to remove the emblem, but finds it grafted/merged with her flesh in a tattoo-like form. Nick offers to walk her home, but when Andrea mentions she wouldn't like anyone else to see such a pathetic home she has for herself, Byrne mentions he's referring to their own three bedroom apartment. Andrea accepts and tells them to go on to a ladder down the building as she looks off into the Metropolis city distance. Pulling out the cell number of Clark's, she brings it to her lips and gives it a kiss, telling him in her own monologue that she can take care of herself. Looking down upon the police, she crumbles up the number and drops it on the roof, letting out her first true smile of the hour.
Andrea says: "Redemption, Protecting, Good. They're all difficult steps to follow. My Mother once told me to give this world all I could, even if she were gone one day, to make it a better place. This is one of those days, with many more ahead. I won't fail you, Mother. From now on, I may be an Angel of Vengeance in some form. But in honor and love of you, those I save and those I slay will know me by only one name."
Nick yells down to her from the top of the ladder.
Nick: "Hey Rojas, Ms. Angel of Vengeance, you coming?"
Andrea: "I'll be right there!"
Andrea walks around the building looking up into the sky, kneels down and leaps all the way down to the side of the building Nick and Byrne have climbed down. Landing in a manner that slightly crumbles the ground beneath her, she meets back up with the two "special" men now in her life.
Andrea: "And by the way...the name is Acrata."
Characters:
Andrea Rojas - A young woman in her mid 20s, on the run from the police and a secret government agency, Andrea almost died in the very same senseless mugging that took her Mother's life. Following a heart transplant with an innocent girl whom died in the second Smallville meteor shower, she gained superhuman feats of strength, agility, and endurance. On her vengeful quest to make those whom killed her Mother pay, she met Clark Kent, a certain not-so-normal young man not entirely of this Earth. He helped her track down the muggers, though when they had the real killer - "Snake" - in their hands, Andrea betrayed Clark and killed the defenseless Snake. Immediately afterwards, she attempted to kill Lionel Luthor, whom would have died if not for Clark. Andrea later met Nick Yang and his then-girlfriend, Molly Griggs, whom were both on their own mission of taking out Lex Luthor. Andrea began her path of redemption, thanks in part to Chloe Sullivan, by foiling Molly's plan and even persuading Nick to help out. She now continues on the run, saving people without a mask, yet not sticking around long enough to give anyone a good look at her. Out one night and on the receiving end of a government ambush, she is saved by Nick Yang, whom introduces a friendly meteor-infected man from Smallville; Byrne Moore. Andrea slowly warms up to them and eventually moves to their apartment. As she heralds on, she has a new ability completely unrelated to her meteor-effected heart, an ancient teleporting ability bestowed by an emblem apparently delivered by her Father. Dropping the Angel of Vengeance name Chloe Sullivan gave her, Andrea dubs herself "Acrata".
Nick Yang - A Chinese-American about the same age as Andrea, he first met her while in league with his ex girlfriend, Molly Griggs. Nick was at first by Molly's side in wanting Lex Luthor dead for his horrendous 33.1 experiments, however, Andrea eventually convinced him to let the pain go and leave Griggs. Nick's apparently met Oliver Queen, the Green Arrow, whom has assigned himself with "meteor freak" Byrne Moore to keep an eye on Rojas and assist on her path of getting past the accused murder. Nick has a truly deep respect for Andrea, knowing that it was her whom saved him from going down a murderer's path. His powers, unlike Byrne and Andrea's heart-related abilities, are completely unrelated to the green meteors of Smallville, Kansas. Instead, he received his matter-energy abilities from a freak accident at a LuthorCorp plant, more-or-less making him a meta-human.
Byrne Moore - The youngest of Andrea's trio, Byrne is the only one born and raised in the sometimes-freakish town of Smallville, albeit he'd spent the majority of his life locked in a basement/cellar by his parents. As a child, he was experimented on by LuthorCorp in some of Lionel Luthor's first forays into meteor rock manipulation. As a sociopathic troubled kid, Byrne was the only one of several children whom survived the ordeals, although must live with a "meteor freak" side-effect similar to the Dr. Jeckle/Mr. Hyde mythos. If exposed to sunlight, he will revert from his humble and poetic persona to a fierce, rage filled darker side with enhanced strength, endurance, and the blackest eyes Nick and Andrea have ever seen. Thanks to the generous help of Oliver Queen, Byrne can now walk in the daylight without reverting thanks to a special bracelet designed to keep his form in check, though still must avoid certain areas of direct sunlight. It isn't completely diminished however, as the uttering of the word "Nesting" from his own mouth or intense true rage can automatically let out his inner beast, whom can only revert back via his own willing re-mention of "Nesting".
Lt. Maggie Swayer - A closeted lesbian, Maggie was born and raised in Metropolis, truly as honest and good a cop as any out there whom knows the true facts of life regarding the big city. She takes a respecting liking to Andrea Rojas, suspecting she's the vigilante whom has helped various innocents and helpless people from the robbing evils of the Suicide Slums streets. She puts her own job on the line by continually letting Andrea go without arrest, as well as denying to her superiors facts of certain cases. What comes next for her in the future is as much a mystery as any.

Forget all of those options...I want a freakin DOOMSDAY spin-off. They can certainly do it. Add their own twist.....have Davis Bloome keep his "paramedic" status but change his origin a bit. Have him be a suppressed Doomsday, with people from several galaxies after him for how, in his Doomsday form, Davis massacred the universe. Perhaps have the son/daughter of the scientist who created him try to destroy the Doomsday side of him. I mean, not necessarily with these ideas, but a Davis Bloome spin-off will be great if they could play it right. I'd at least like to see ONE season of this....

"Lanaville"
This show follows the zany adventures of a half-asian teenaged girl growing up in a small town, who only looks half-asian but is somehow inexplicably the product of two white people. She is obsessed with honesty and truth, and hates secrets and lies, lies and secrets, but most of all, secrets and lies. She is the regular target of all sorts of freaks and weirdo stalkers and is the ongoing object of desire/obsession to many, many people (male and female alike, tv producers and writers alike). She gradually transforms from a normal cutesy innocent cheerleader into a butt kicking worldly wise genius ninja who heads an organization called the Isis Foundation at the ripe old age of 20 with almost no schooling/education to speak of outside of waiting tables at coffee houses and swinging pompoms at highschool football games. She also spends time as a superpowerful witch, and has sex with aliens. And---oh wait we already had that show, it was called Smallville Seasons 1 through 7. My mistake. lol

Metropolis
Premise: A show about the city that is home to Superman.
Themes: Superman as an icon that is shaped be the people of Metropolis. Crime vs Justice.
The show would have to feel very different from Smallville, in terms of thematic focus and atmosphere. Obviously, it will be more mature and less 'teeny'. The only parts that make it a follow-up of Smallville are the relationships Smallville created between the iconic characters. Ideally Tom and Erica, at least, would still be there and at some point Michael would return as Lex, but a number of new characters will also have to be introduced that make the show specifically about Metropolis.
The show focuses on the city of Metropolis as the new home of Superman. Although the Daily Planet will still be an important part of the show, as the newspaper is an integral part of the city, the show will also introduce a few completely new iconic cityscapes.
The city watches the birth of Superman. Obviously the show will still have deal with Clark and his dual identity, but Superman will almost be like a separate character, underlining the difference between Clark Kent the reporter and Superman the icon that exists in the eyes of the people of Metropolis. Clark will still want to control his own destiny, but he cannot really control how the people see him and label him.
The show will be a crime series with a 'super' flavour, not a superhero drama. Criminality as an integral part of the city will receive special attention. I'm thinking of The Dark Knight right now. That movie took Batman in a direction that I'd like to see Superman take.
Essentially Metropolis will not look at Superman from a personal angle (as Smallville did) but from a social angle. Of course, the show will still follow individuals like Clark and Lois, but the stories they tell will be very different. In the end Superman will never be the main character (or subject) of the show but rather the topic (object).

Here's a Shelby spinoff....
"A Pup Named Shelby-Doo"
A hobo named "Shiggy" shows up to the Kent farm one day, and Shelby takes a real shining to him. They become the best of pals and leave together for Metropolis where down-on-luck beatnik Shiggy intends to get an actual job. He finally gets one at a restaurant known to serve cat-burgers.
Shiggy: Hey Shelby buddy, you're like, lucky you're no feline eh!
Shelby: Reah! Reah! *giggles*
Chef Catlover: Hey you. Dog. Can I see you in the kitchen for a second.
Shelby: Rokay!!
(15 minutes later, a new menu item suddenly shows up, suspiciously named the Shelby-Burger)

I think they will only do a spin-off if TW is not available to play Clark on Smallville. In that case, it would be weird to spin-off all things Smallville into a show called Metropolis without Clark.
The only one I could wrap my brain around would be a Green Arrow spin-off. Justin has the screen presence to pull off a leading role and Green Arrow can be portrayed a lot like Batman. Most people are familiar with Batman even if they are not familiar with the Green Arrow, so there would be a familiar feel to the show that would make it watchable by the masses.
I would introduce all new supporting characters and set it in Star City. Otherwise it will be too much like Smallville without Clark/TW.

Personally, I would like to see a Metropolis spin off where Clark has fully embraced being Superman with the tights, flight, and the whole works.
Since that is unlikely to happen, I voted for a Green Arrow spin off b/c you already have to great actors in JH and AH to play Green Arrow and Black Canary. Set it in Star City and bring in GA characters. You could bring in a young Roy Harper and show his development into Red Arrow. Hal Jordan could be a recurring guest role since GL and GA worked together a lot in the comics, although with the upcoming GL movie that might not be possible. There are also several villains that could be used in the plot. You could do different stories from the comics such as Ollie losing his fortune, becoming mayor of Star City, or different things like that. Plus, the SV fanbase is already familiar with the character.
Both the LOSH and JL spin offs would be cool, but both would require a larger cast and the LOSH could be costly in special effects. It would be best to not recast the roles from the SV universe if this spin off happened.

A Metropolis spin-off would be cool . . . but I doubt they could get all the actors to come back to the show. I doubt TW would want to play the same character for like 15 straight years.
The show would either have to get picked up by a major network such as ABC/NBC/FOX, or they'd have to throw a mountain of money at these people to stay and do it.

My initial response to a spin-off show is no, but I saw someone mention the Teen Titans in another thread... I might like that. I used to watch the Teen Titans cartoon with my sisters (sometimes), and I think it could definitely make the jump from cartoon to live action TV series. It's not exactly a spin off, but it would include Robin, and since The Graysons didn't pan out, this could be a fun alternative.

Metropolis would be a great series, I would love to see the Lois and Clark more combative as professionals, and in the beginning no interest for one another except for the physical appreciation, allow them both to play off of jealousy by having temporary relationships with other people (example Lois with Bruce Wayne,Lex Luthor, Clark with home town sweet heart Lana Lane, with other professional women of Metropolis (not as a playboy, just as a sweet country gentlemen), Superman with Raya, Maxima ect.) . Clark has a great relationship with Jimmy, they are like best buds, they like going to sporting events or to the bar for a brew ever once awhile. Perry White is one tough boss, but has a gentle side that come thru as a father or grand father figure. Only Clark's mother Martha is alive, Clark goes home at least once a month to spend a weekend at home. Have all Superman's Villians and some of Batman's villians to be part of the story line. What makes a great series are relationships and how they are developed, Superman is an Icon whose story inspire us to be better than we are. If someone could learn from the short comings of "Lois and Clark", Superman Returns", and Smallville. this could be a great series.

Lol, how's this:
"Lanaville"
This show follows the zany adventures of a half-asian teenaged girl growing up in a small town, who only looks half-asian but is somehow inexplicably the product of two white people. She is obsessed with honesty and truth, and hates secrets and lies, lies and secrets, but most of all, secrets and lies. She is the regular target of all sorts of freaks and weirdo stalkers and is the ongoing object of desire/obsession to many, many people (male and female alike, tv producers and writers alike). She gradually transforms from a normal cutesy innocent cheerleader into a butt kicking worldly wise genius ninja who heads an organization called the Isis Foundation at the ripe old age of 20 with almost no schooling/education to speak of outside of waiting tables at coffee houses and swinging pompoms at highschool football games. She also spends time as a superpowerful witch, and has sex with aliens.
Too far-fetched.

There are a lot of things the CW is doing wrong. I wouldn't take them not giving him as a show as him not being able to handle it. The Green Arrow is a very interesting character. GA doesn't need Clark to do what he does. He's incredibly resourceful and he's smart. I think it could work under the right circumstances.

You don't think fans would want to see Justin Hartley? Really? I think he'd have a built-in female audience before the pilot ever aired. And I think he's a likable enough guy that the men would watch too. I think the GA character (as it is represented on Smallville) is very well done. Although, they may want to finally give him some facial to make him look more like the comic book version.

A majority of the fans would want to, but not enough to keep the ratings. And before this season he was only in a few episodes. He's not entirly well known and a network would have a problem with that considering how much money it would cost to produce an episode.

Any new show is a risk. But it's less of a risk when you have a built-in audience already. Most of Smallville's fans would watch a GA show. Others would watch on their own. It would have just as good of a chance as any other new show, if not better.

The problem is the money. If they want to make a show that rivals how Smallville is done and let's say 3 million people are watchig the pilot of GA and then it drops down to 2 million, it's a failure. Not to mention that spin-offs have very bad history. Fraiser might be the only spin-off that was succesful and it's because they surrounded Kelsey Grammer with an amazing supporting cast.

In CW's case, they have too many "female" shows and not enough "male" shows. While Smallville does appeal to both genders, I think it is primarily a "guy" show (like Supernatural). Shows like 90210 and Gossip Girl are primarily "chick" shows. A show like Green Arrow could attract more male viewership. That's not something Dawn O. is really thinking about.

The Graysons show had no real potential IMO. There's not a whole lot of story about Dick before he meets Bruce. It would be a circus show with Dick Grayson and a lot of foreshadowing. The timing also felt like they were trying to piggy back on the success of the dark knight. I would also disagree about Smallville being a male dominated show. There's a lot of shippers. I would make the argument that more females are watching the show then males.

Basically Clark Kent embarks his destiny as Superman fighting crime in metropolis with a cool new young modern day outfit similar to how Kal-El looked in metropolis in Season 3, but with a cool S on his chest and on the back of his jacket or even like blend it with that awesome outfit in the Superman comic Godfall. His alter ego as clark is more geeky like the comics & movies, and supes & lois are in love. I have attached some cool pics to spark creative ideas for fans and creators to imagine, Enjoy!:rotfl:

NCIS, CSI: NY, CSI: Miami, Criminal Intent, Special Victims Unit, The Simpsons, Angel, The Jeffersons, Good Times, Xena, Boston Legal, etc. were all successful spin-offs.
I think that if the CW's willing to try a spin-off of Gossip Girl that focuses on the early life of one of the parents, then a Green Arrow spin-off has a fair chance of working too. Especially if some other Smallville regulars make some guest appearances.

Not a new Idea, but what would your Ideas for a justice league begins tv series be if you had to write one?
Mine would be:
Keep the justice league cast members as they are now from smallville, but start to introduce wonderwoman, green lantern, hawk girl, batman etc, including there back stories and how they meet and there powers, and in the first season it would tell how they all the above including the villians of the justice league like the joker, penguin, bizzaro, darksled etc. The first season would be all about the introduction and the collaboration of the team. The second season would be about battling the villians and the public not accepting aliens in to there lives and telling them to go home and the villians using political tactics to force them out until the prove themselves and win them over in a big battle. season 2 finale would be where there head quarters gets blown up and all hope is lost but batman brings out blue prints for the space station headquarters.
That is about as much as I have for the time being,
please fell free to add more seasons or more ideas for episodes, or do you have a different direction?

Neat concept, but it would be near impossible to pull off due to certain character rights and all that.
Plus the budget for a show like that would be tremendously high for any network to want to try and pick up. Now if they did a film trilogy along that line, that would be pretty awesome :)

I would have the series regulars as Green Arrow, Martian Manhunter, Impulse, Zatanna, Cyborg (maybe, probably more of a guest star), Green Lantern (for a new character), and Watchtower. I would probably have the series based around them solving some sort of mystery that crops during a mission involving the meteor freaks. Like maybe they find out about some meteor freak cult that is planning to unleash some sort of Cthulhu monster and the JLA must stop them.

I'm not too sad about that actually. I think that the actors need to move on from that and do greater things.

I don't really see any spinoff show from this either, you could always want a Metropolis show but it just wouldn't be the same if you couldn't get all the necessary actors back (Michael Rosenbaum for example?)

The only Spinoff i could see is Green Arrow. Do i think they would do it? No. Would i like to see it? Yes.

If CW wants another superhero show fine but no spinoffs of Smallville or anything else when this ends it should be another stage for these characters none of the actors on Smallville should reprise their roles in movies let alone television.

I don't think, the CW is the right place for superhero shows (bigger networks, with wider demographics, that can get the shows the required budget, thanks).

I don't think superhero shows is what they want on the CW. It doesn't fit their demographics.

Which I always found funny since the biggest shows or most watched shows on CW are genre shows.

Futon Critic reported that Dawn Ostroff has said the network is open to another DC Comics property but nothing has been put into development yet. "We would love to see something on the air," she added.

:( Disappointed by this. I don't know what I will do w/o Smallville. I am really hoping for A spin Off. Maybe once it gets closer to the end. PLEASE LET THERE BE A SPIN OFF!!!!!!

It's funny I still hear complaints when the DC Original universe movies are made how much they miss the look and actors of the DCAU I suggest accept when a new Superman/Lois/Lex Luthor/Green Arrow actor/actress is chosen or new show or movie is made. Sometimes fandom to one version prevents people from liking others even if it's good.
I personally hope that this is the end of Smallville and these versions of the characters so we can get something new and different.

********** has a more upbeat take on the possibility of a spin-off - direct quotes from Dawn give it a ring of authenticity.

I would so love to see a spin-off - preferably based around the Justice League/Green Arrow.

Me personally I would like it if after smallville the cw had a new show with new heroes learning to control their abilities and become heroes with cameos of the smallville actors/actress showing up as their smallville characters to over advice once in a while when needed basicly a continuation from smallville that lets the smallville cast move on but bring them in for a scene or two every once in a while when they choose to come in. Basicly after smallville I'd love to see a live action teen titans/ young justice with the teens learning how to protect the world with the older heroes stopping by randomly throughout the season to help out or give their thoughts.

that said I'm almost positive we will never get a new show with young heroes trying to grow up and learn from the older heroes smallville has already introduced.

He does an amazing GA and OQ I am just shocked at how well he plays him, really have to give props to all of the cast for doing a wonderful job. Anyways if there is a spinoff featuring GA I want them to use Smallvilles suit! :D

Pretty much anybody watching Smallville now would give a SV spinoff a chance.

I think so too. I mean maybe not some of the fans whom watch for certain characters but who knows. Also the spin off would get other fans involved. Say it would be a GA spin off, you would have a lot of fans that are fans of Smallville and a lot of fans that are interested in the GA who maybe were not interested in a Superman story. :)

Is that a joke ?
When bigger networks have a "super hero hit show", it turns into crap because 80% of the budget is spent on the actors.
Look at the horrible piece of monkey turd Heroes has become. Not only does it have the worst writing of the decade, but it also has absolutely NO action nor amazing scenes. (or let's say it has 2 cool scenes in the premiere then nothing)
Smallville has nothing to be ashamed of. Ok it might not look as good as Superman returns, and it will never be the case, but at least the action is enjoyable, and believable enough (season 9 is great).
At least the hero doesn't suddenly loose all of his powers to get a single crappy one for the rest of the show, like heroes....

What does Heroes have to do, with anything? That show doesn't even fall, into this category (i.e. superhero shows, based around one DC (or Marvel) superhero). Heroes was a drama show, that made the mistake of having so many main characters (that all, were to be given spotlight, in every episode. Most emsemble shows, when they give character focus, focuses mainly on one character, per episode, then do another one later, that focuses on another regular character), that was spread out everywhere (unlike most emsemble casts, where all the characters co-exists on one location: Desperate Housewives - Main characters live on the same street. Buffy The Vampire Slayer - Main characters live in the same town and attend the same schools. ER - Main characters are medical staff, working at the same hospital. Star Trek (all shows) - Main characters work on the same spaceship/space station. CSI (all shows) - Main characters work, in the same forensics lab), that they couldn't really afford nor had the time, for action scenes in every episode. An actual superhero show, would most likely revolve around just one superhero and the people around him/her (making it 1 main character and 4-5 supporting regulars, all of whom live in the same area and interact with each other on a daily basis). So, there you have a mere 5-6 regular cast (bringing in a few guest stars, every now and then), who'll all be at the same sets and locations (unlike Heroes, where someone was in Japan, someone was in New York, someone was in Las Vegas, etc. and moving around, as the show went on), lowering certain costs (and allowing for "villains of the week" and action scenes, in every episode).

Also CBS made a TV show, about the Flash in the early 90's.
In the late 70's ABC and CBS aired a Wonder Woman show.
CBS also aired an Incredible Hulk series, during this time.
In the 90's ABC aired a Superman show (that despite having a strong focus on romance, gave the public weekly flying scenes (they weren't perfect, but CGI was still in it's infancy), action scenes and even occational space flight). Bigger networks make more money and can therefore give the shows large budgets (unlike the CW, that's a smaller network. In case, you didn't know this, Smallville's actually a low budget show, as the network's unable/unwilling to spend much money on it).

CW is the exact right Network for Superhero shows, Big networks, like ABC, CBS tend to take such shows for granted and cancel them while keeping their popular crime /medical shows alive. Superhero shows kind of have like a cult following, which isnt a large audience, but enough for networks like CW. i wouldnt want to watch a superhero network on any of the big network, worrying every season if the show is gonna get canned.

I'd totally be onboard for a GA spinoff. However, I really want the rest of the "Smallville" cast to move on and not make guest appearances. Guess I'm being selfish, but it would just make me miss "Smallville" that much more. I'm still going to need therapy after it goes off the air at the end of next season. LOL!

Green Arrow paired with Hawkman are an unliikely do that seem to be quite entertaining when they share screen time. Since they each lead their own teams, perhaps they could lead a show that deals with both teams, titled with the name they have in common: Justice.

Superman - Lois & Clark (TW&ED Edition) would be the best, but that's really what we have been getting since S8.
The Green Arrow would be most likely to be after Smallville ends. Would be cool if it had some cameos of Chloe, Lois, Clark (as Superman) and of course the JLA&JSA!!
Superboy2

Here are the ideas that I like:
JLA(Smallville version, no way would we get all the big players)
GA with or without Black Canary. Could be where the team split up and or starting their own superhero careers. Could have future appearance of Clark/Supes and Lois, Chloe, Emil, MM etc.
JSA/JLA-Ollie and Hawkman as the leaders of two teams who need to unite. With all of the members, the cast can rotate often and they don't need to have every character in 20-22 episodes per season. Justice as the title could work, even Absolute Justice.

A Superman spinoff would be pretty cool, but I think it might be cooler to have a Green Arrow spinoff. That would be fun. Id love to have a spinoff staring MM or Carter Hall though. Justice Society FTW.

I like the idea of a JLA spin-off. Green Arrow is my second choice.
