Smallville Casting News: Pam Grier is Agent Amanda Waller

EW's Michael Ausiello has broke that Pam Grier, fresh off her six year stint as Kit Porter on Showtime's The L Word (one of my guilty, guilty, GUILTY pleasures), will step into the world of Smallville as DC Comic's ruthless villain with a badge, Agent Amanda Waller. Grier's stint will be for multiple episodes and will start with a two-parter called "Legends", which is a befitting title and introduction since the Waller character was introduced in the 1986 six issue DC crossover comic also entitled, Legends.

I remember Waller as a pain in the neck to the Justice League Unlimited on the Cartoon Network, because she always trumped whatever the heroes were trying to do if it was on an epic scale. I also remember her being integral to the creation of Bruce Wayne's "spawn" in Batman Beyond, which was so confusing that I won't drag you through that craziness at the this time.

I haven't seen Smallville since Season Three, but this makes me want to take a peek. It's Pam Grier! Anyone has a primer? Casey?
