You didn’t really think we’d forget the annual tradition, did you?
Every year in the past, we’d done the annual KryptonSite Awards to honor the best and worst of a particular season of Smallville… and with the series over and the complete series choices happening last summer, it seemed as though that might be the end.
Nope!
This year, we’re giving you the chance to pick your favorite aspects of the digital and print Smallville Season 11 comic book series. If you haven’t seen the comics yet… what are you waiting for? You can see all of the back issues digitally here; the first trade paperback, “Guardian,” which starts the story, can be purchased on Amazon.com here. There’s some VERY good stuff within.
We promised you all we’d get started today, but some categories still need to be put together. For now, though, here are most of the nominations, with voting in the first category – Best Episode – already starting. If you think there’s something missing, or if you have suggestions in those remaining categories, please leave some comments below.
(Also, if you’re in a voting mood, we’re doing the GreenArrowTV Awards for Arrow this month too, and Smallville Season 11 writer Bryan Q. Miller is nominated for the episode he co-wrote there, too.)
Have fun! Oh, and the reason there is no “Best Writer” category is because there is only one writer. Congratulations, Bryan, you won.
The space to vote for Best Episode can be found at the bottom of this article.
