    Clark helps out at home
    Clark has a run in with kryptonite
    Clark is removed from the kyrptonite
    Clark saves the day

    I never really liked Smallville all that much, but I am a post-Crisis purist.

    • * Clark didn't develop his powers until after he was out of high school.
      * Clark did not know he was an alien until a few years into his career as Superman.
      * Kryptonians are bald; this is a side effect of genetic manipulation by the Eradicator which caused Kryptonians to die if they left Krypton. Jor El was able to reverse this on Kal El before he sent him to Earth.
      * There is very little Kryptonite on Earth (about 7 or 8 pieces), and the only kind is green. Red Kryptonite was created by Mr. Mxyplk (or however you spell his name, I don't feel like looking it up) but he destroyed it when he was done having his fun.
      * Lex Luthor is the same age as Perry White, Clark's editor at the Daily Planet. On top of that, Lex Luthor is one of the smartest people on the planet, if he saw that much weirdness around Clark it would not take him long to figure out that Clark is Superman.


    But fortunatly, DC has been ruining Superman recently and taking back all of the good work that John Bryne did when they relaunched Superman after the Crisis. Great idea, bring back Krypto and Kara Zor-El, where's Streaky, Beppo, Comet, and Proty? >_>

    Remy Zero sings a pretty good theme song. Shows sucks though imo.

    I caught the last episode where some meteors fux up the town and a helicopter crashes, it didn't look that bad. D:

    If you watched superman 2, the 3 badass kryptonians that were released in the beginning of that movie seem to be the same 3 that make an apperance in the first episode of season 5 SV ( or some like them).

    they are not the same. in superman 2, it's general Zod and his goons. In the opening episode, they are just goons goons (really bad ones too) of zod. They refer to themselves as "disciples of zod" which makes it seem like there are certainly more to come.

    i must say, this season seems to show more potential than all the previous seasons.

    You must be new to Superman. Every other year he: loses his powers, his powers become too strong and worries about hurting humanity, or gains shitty electric powers and splits in two and then loses those shitty electric powers and becomes one again without an explanation. Currently his powers are starting to become too strong and and he is worried about hurting humanity.

    DC is really starting to suck a lot of ass.

    I like how they toned down Superman in JL, also the 2nd to last episode in JLU was fucking awesome.

    What do you mean by "toned down"?

    JLU is hit or miss to me. I've seen a few episodes which were utterly fantastic, but then other ones are "meh". (They seemed to revolve around Lex Luthor's new Legion of Doom. God I hate the Legion of Doom...)

    Only people who love legion of doom are nerds that never get any.

    Actually... there was gold kryptonite in a alternative reality where Superman killed General Zod and his accolytes. It stripped them of their powers.
    ...uh, so I'm a fan, sue me.

    Anyways, on topic, the show is pretty predictable and repeative, but I like watching it... <3 Michael Rosenbaum. He's so sexay.
