Just had a one of those "it is past time to get to bed" thoughts:
Will bus or car trip go through Smallville?
After all, the core elements of the JLA are there now and they could take down Sylar.....
Or, since Mr. Lee seems to be somehow involved, could we "see" one of his characters show up?
Most of his characters were based in NYC after all.
And Iron Man is now in production.
