Joining the ranks of Metallo, Zod and perhaps even the Wonder Twins for a Season Nine appearance, a version of Green Arrow’s sidekick Speedy could be making her “Smallville” debut in the November episode “Crossfire.”

According to Kryptonsite, this Speedy could be the female version of the archer’s apprentice, Mia Dearden, rather than Oliver Queen’s first partner, Roy Harper.

Additionally, this potential Speedy’s back story seems fairly rooted in its comic book origins, with Dearden supposedly working as a hooker for a tattooed pimp named Rick. Of course, the rumor that Dearden drives Queen’s Lamborghini and he calls her “Speedy,” seems to seal her fate in the heroing business, especially if he ends up taking her on as a sidekick to help get her out of trouble.

Mia Dearden was revealed to be HIV positive early in her crime-fighting career, making her an advocate for HIV and AIDS education in her comic storylines. It’s unknown whether this version of Speedy will mirror her comics self, but it does present “Smallville” with an opportunity to air information on the subject.

At press time, no information has been released about whether of not someone has been cast in the part of ‘Speedy’
