I thiiiiink Alice said she dumped Safiyah in a junkyard, but I might’ve misheard the line.

It looked like a 95 to me, but I didn’t freeze frame the screen so I easily could’ve been mistaken!
All the flashback stuff was so, so, so good, spent most of it humming the John Williams Superman march. The stuff with Edge was more of a bummer, but that’s sort of a given since it’s meant to be a season nadir. It also clarified the new timeline a little better, with Clark being a part of the class of 95 (hey, that…
It was nice of ILM to let the Flash VFX guys borrow the Captain Marvel Binary effect for Allegra. All in all I thought it was a perfectly cromulent midseason episode.

I’ve seen people mention that they are going to recast Ralph eventually. They’re just having the character sit on the shelf for a while. Sort of like how they didn’t immediately recast Kate on Batwoman.
I’m pretty sure both Jor-El and Lara call it the Eradicator, and neither of them would have any reason to use a term thought up by Edge.
For sure, for sure. And despite my attempts to rationalize it, the deletion of any and everything Kara is weird given that we know the show exists in the same universe. And while Clark didn’t really seem to consider Edge’s sales pitch, like at all (maybe because he already has some measure of family in Kara and Argo…
So I just rewatched the opening of the season 3 finale, and they show a news broadcast talking about how Superman saved Madagascar, so he was not on Argo at the time. IIRC, he and Lois visit Argo during the summer hiatus between seasons 3 & 4. They return to Earth in time for the Elseworlds crossover, and then…
I dimly recall a throwaway line about Clark keeping Africa from exploding, but it’s been forever since I last watched season 3 so i could be wrong. I’m more certain that Clark being off-world was their excuse for why he didn’t help Kara put a stop to Lex’s shenanigans in season four.
I am like 87.43% positive Clark went to Argo the following season.
I’m trying to remember, did they come up with a reason why Clark didn’t help out when a trio of Kryptonian witches rolled up on National City and tried to terraform Earth into Krypton? In a perfect world Kara is 100% someone Clark would bring in to help, not just because she’s additional muscle, but as mentioned…
Compared to the absolute shit show that was the Forces storyline, the past two weeks have been a breath of fresh air, bring more case of the week episodes!
H’El did try to recruit kara to work with him to varying degrees of effectiveness, but creepy stalker sounds more like the Power Boy from the pre-New 52 Supergirl
The conversion process only seems to work if the person willingly submits to it, and who knows what happens to the Kryptonian spirit if the subject explodes. So maybe Edge doesn’t want to waste his X Kryptonite anymore than he has to?
Yeah, but with the Kent boys no longer on the team they’re sort of out of the picture at the moment.
Oh Rao, H’El was a part of an extremely dumb New 52 Superfamily crossover story. I’m not sure if I’ve ever read the whole thing, but the bits I did were not very good. I could easy see Edge being H’El since I want to say in the comic the character was trying to recreate Krypton on Earth (like Zod in MoS), hence the…
I like it simply because the character expands the world the kent boys inhabit. at the moment the only person we see them interact with on the regular is Sarah and that feels very narrow.
The residents of Smallville being the only people in the world who can properly be possessed by X Kryptonite felt very, well, Smallville to me.
I’m going to be curious to see if there’s a way to exorcise the Kryptonians from the possessed people. At this point I think it really could go either way with Kyle’s survival, though I will stake the claim that he ultimately rejects the Kryptonian possession. Whether that means he expells the Kryptonian personality,…
