Hmm is Tess forming the Legion of Doom?

I was thinking the same thing.

And I had no idea that Bette was an actual character from the comics.

Plastique[Bette Sans Souci] was in an episode of Justice League Unlimited...

Broccoli · September 26 2008, 05:08 AM

I liked it. This really feels like a whole different show in many regards.

Maybe Tess is using the Mrs Sullivan trance serum to control them and forming her own legion of doom

I've got money on a Suicide Squad.

I was thinking the "Injustice Gang" when Tess uttered the word injustice. A stretch, I know, but still...

Whatever they call themselves, I wonder if she, along with others, come back this season to square off against the Justice League.

This is what Smallville should have been doing a long time ago...It is finally growing up and getting to its roots in the DC Universe...and if Doomsday looks and acts half as good as THE BEAST from Angel http://cdn-www.mania.com/content_pics/17956_large.jpg

I hope so with the rumor that Rosenbaum says he has no plans to return to Smallville at all and is pursuing a movie deal.

No one noticed that Clark was sporting the "S" shaped curl when he was carrying Tess away from the bus? His hair wasn't greased back, but you could actually see the curl.

Clark is actually starting to act like Superman. It wasn't an outstanding episode, but it does feel like the show is headed in the right direction. Next week we are revisiting Green Arrow's origin which actually HAS been told before. Two years ago during one of the Smallville Legends ad campaigns which aired during the commercial breaks was where they first told the story of Ollie getting marooned and having to learn archery. In fact, I found the first episode of it:

You can see the entire series on the season 6 set.

Hmmm... I don't think recycling freak-of-the-week plots and look-how-evil-I-am characters is considered "going green."

Okay...that's not a complete thought there.

What do you hope about the rumor?

Definatey time to recast, maybe an older Lex from the future, that's where he disappeared to.

Pleasantly surprised I was, I had low hopes for this season, but this episode felt more like "Superman" than anything else previously.

The only thing that really bugs me is no suite and or glasses as a disguise. Clark runs off to go save people, but looks exactly the same, so everyone will recognize him! This is a real problem for me. If we are going to have clark running off to save the people of metropolis, he needs a disguise.

Presumably he realizes this and in a future episode considers it.

I get it! That's why he seemed so familiar! I spent hours playing that game.

They've already done away with no tights rule(Green Arrow),when will they lose no flights. He should have figured out how to do that by now,or remeber how to do it.

The "no tights, no flights" rule was made in regards to Clark, meaning Clark wouldn't fly or wear the costume. He hasn't worn the costume, so the "no tights" part of the rule hasn't been broken.
