Sam and Lucy are coming back

http://www.tvguide.com/News/Smallville-Michael-Ironside-1021736.aspx

General Sam Lane (Michael Ironside) and Lucy Lane (Peyton List) are coming back to 'Smallville'. K-Site and other places are running with that.

I'm interested to see what's coming, to be honest. We haven't seen either of those characters since the unspeakably lousy season 4. The series is usually good at bringing characters back and coming up with an intelligent justification for doing so. Most of the time. Let's hope this is no different.

The gossip is that Sam's return somehow is related to Lex Luthor. Dare we hope?

Anyway. Episode airs in October.

First look at Maxwell Lord and more!

Smallville returns on Friday April 2nd at 8PM Eastern with a new episode of Smallville.
