    Smallville features the story of Clark Kent in the town of Smallville, Kansas, where he learns more about his Kryptonian heritage and what it means to be a hero of Earth. Throughout his journey, he encounters notable Justice League members and heroes from DC Comics, like Impulse, who serves as a stand-in for The Flash, as well as Martian Manhunter, Green Arrow, Zatanna, and many others. The show laid the foundation for future CW Arrowverse shows like The Flash, Supergirl, Batwoman, and Stargirl, just to name a few. Smallville: Season Eleven is the sequel comic that showcases Smallville's Clark Kent as Superman, taking place six months after the series finale. It explores the show's iterations of characters like Batman, Nightwing, Green Lantern, and Wonder Woman.

Smallville could’ve been Clark as superboy fighting new or like golden age villains then realized he’s not ready and goes off to train for a few years then Superman. Same with Bruce. He can have Alfred train him who’s a former mi6 or whatever try and be a vigilante face c listers or new villains then when it doesn’t work he leaves. That would be so much better imo

      ye that statement only holds true pre graduation Smallville, but I guess you can also make a case that Clark doesn't become "Superman" to the world UNTIL he puts on the cape in the finale episode of the show. for us he was always superman but in universe it took some time hence 'the before Clark becomes superman'

      I was a junior in high school during season 1 making me a couple grades ahead of Clark and one grade behind Whitney. I don't believe they ever had a character in my high school year. They made that up with Arrow. Oliver and Laurel Lance were in my grade. Of course I didn't start watching until 2006. I did wa5ch one eposide back I'm high school. It was the Ryan eposide then I forgot about the show until 4 years later.

    as for the infinite earths cross over cameo, I feel like Smallville Clark would only give up his powers if it meant saving the world, it's not something he'd ever do for himself. if anything, having children would give him more of a reason to continue to be a hero because he knows his kids will inherit his powers and he needs to set that example and protect them.

    You should also have talked about Lionel Luthor aa in the beginning of the series he was definitely a villain but after that one episode with Clark in season 4 and then he became infected by Jor El's IA made he change his ways somewhat, thinking about it now I think he was more close to Lex in the end of All Star Superman when lex got the same powers as superman and started seeing the world in a complete different light, but here Lionel is always hunted by his past and what he did. It's somewhat sad that when he died, and even after Clark discovered how Jonathan died, Clark himself still had the same prejudice towards him as his father did, then again he had the other Lionel that proves he's right so I don't know, growing out of this can be a step for him to develop but having it shows how he's still very much human.

The whole thing in the show was that he wasn't just a hero, he was a hero who inspired heroes. That universe was full of them because of Clark and who he is. Clark created an age of heroes throughout the entire show and if we're being honest, they probably told him to retire because of all the work he had already done.

It could be just a phase in his life when he is trying to be a great father for his kids just like how Jonathan was for him. Call it paternity leave if you will. There is indeed a band of superheroes who watch over the people. And Clark wouldn't let them down if they faced an enemy only Superman could defeat. This time his family takes priority. And considering he will outlive all of them, it's understandable he would like to spend some time with them before that happens. But the future Dr. Fate and the Legion talked about can still become a reality.

    Despite the writing in Smallville being mixed, it actually got me more into the Superman comics back in high school. If i recall correctly, the show was originally supposed to end either at season 4 or on season 5. Because it was reaching that point where Clark should have been Superman already and shouldn't have been dragged out to season 10. I wasn't also a big fan of the hole prophecy gimic that the show played around with on Clark becoming Superman because it takes way the build-up on him becoming his own without anyone else telling him differently. This was also one of the reasons why I disliked Gotham because the show did the same thing with Bruce, just as Smallville did with Clark. And another thing that really bothered me about Smallville and Gotham that both shows were introducing some of Superman and Batman's rogues gallery (especially the major ones) so early and making it difficult to believe that the Worlds Finest will have supervillains of their own when they become adults.

    Okay, so I cannot believe that I am going to waste a comment defending that plotline but Davis was a victim of Kryptonian scientists who could not control his abilities. He only killed (and he specifically killed dangerous criminals) individual people in order to stop Doomsday from coming out and going on a rampage. Chloe and Davis argued that sending him to the Phantom Zone was less humane than killing him because he would be banished to a prison dimension forever, forced to give into his Doomsday persona. Now granted, Chloe's alternative of just staying with him had some major holes in it, especially after he kidnapped Jimmy and Oliver.

      Nah, send him to the Phantom Zone while you figure something out. Hell, Chloe can go with him to the PZ if she's so concerned about it, then Clark can figure out that Black K can separate him, use it in the PZ and that's it. Chloe taking the crystal away and not giving another option other than being in the run with Davis was insane as hell. At least in the PZ he wouldn't hurt others.

      @@ThePunisherSpider The one problem with your plan is that in this version of the Phantom Zone, Clark does not have his powers. So the second Clark split Davis and Doomsday, Doomsday would kill him. Also, again in this version, you cannot just pull someone out. You need to go in and get them which is what Clark did for Kara which was how Faora escaped and triggered Doomsday in the first place.
      Look, from a purely pragmatic standpoint, sending him to the Phantom Zone made the most sense. But Chloe was right about one thing, it would have been more humane to just kill Davis.

    The only thing I hated about Smallville was the meteor freak of the week format for the first 3 or 4 seasons. Even though I liked seeing Clark's journey to becoming Superman, I was a bigger fan of Lex and Lionel. Their characters were the most interesting ones because both were evil but could find redemption. Lex started out good but went evil while Lionel was the opposite. There were decent villains once they started using comic book characters and it was fun to see who they'd bring on the show next. Smallville isn't my favorite show but it's in my top 5 for sure.

    I have complicated feelings towards Smallville. I love the premise of focusing more on Clark Kent before he becomes Superman, especially during his teen years. Having once-a-week villains/problems in a small town in Kansas is a genius idea for a weekly show. And the highlight surprisingly comes from the Luthors, especially between Lex and Lionel. Witnessing Lex's turn to evil was very well handled and almost perfection.
    But where the complications come in is its later seasons during and after Season 5. Sure, I like that Clark and his friends were no longer in high school, but the formula was becoming stale and cliched in Season 5 because there was clearly a sense that something needed to change, and they never truly did act on it. The closest we came was when Clark revealed his secret to Lana, but they quickly reversed it through time-travel, and I hated it.
    Either kill off Lana or go all the way with her knowing about his secret. Let them have a healthy relationship without any secrets between them when it was more risky to do so. The moment they had Clark reveal his secret to her, that was playing a card that would only work once. Because once they did it again in a different way during Season 6, it didn't have the same impact. That was the moment when I realized that the show didn't have the guts to change things up until it became safer to do so later.
    Don't get me wrong, I like Seasons 6 & 7 for some of the risks that they do take with the show, but there was always a sense that they were holding back because they knew the show was more than likely going to be renewed and didn't want to progress things too far. But even then, it still felt like a large shadow that made it difficult to enjoy the show by that point, especially in the final three seasons. Not to mention a lot of plotlines and developments that either were forgotten about, retconned, or did not have a satisfying conclusion.
    And I know I'll get some hate for this but I am not a fan of Clark and Lois in this show. I do not hate them, they're tolerable in terms of other romances I've seen from the CW. But I always felt that Clark and Lana had more chemistry and build up between them in the first 5 seasons. Seasons 6 - 8 on the other hand, maybe not so much. And to be honest, I would have been okay with a universe where Clark doesn't get with Lois.
    I know I'm making it sound like I hate the show, but I don't. It's just complicated because I see the true potential that it never truly reached, and it's one of those things where that's just how it is. Smallville was made in a very different era of the superhero genre and it did the best it could in that time-period. It still holds a special place in my heart.

They turned Lana into a selfish, self centered, shallow bitch she hurt & almost killed everyone she claimed to care about especially when Clark wouldn't tell her his secret. Lana's role in Clark's life should've ended after season 4 the show went on after Pete left the same would've happened if Lana left.

    I think the best way to describe my feelings on Smallville is like this. The show has a ton of great ideas, I just don't like the premise. This is 10 seasons of a Superman origin story and I don't think it really needed to be that long. Honestly, show probably should've ended at Season 4 when Clark graduates high school and if they really wanted to continue the story after that just make him Superman, there is no reason to drag this origin out for 6 more seasons, especially when you're bringing in other heroes and villains from across DC. Clark is a founding member of the Justice League but he isn't Superman, Clark battles Darkseid but he isn't Superman, Clark is set to marry Lois but he isn't Superman, Clark battles Doomsday but he isn't Superman, and Jimmy Olsen dies before Clark is Superman.

    My biggest problem with Smallville is the Crisis crossover. Knowing that Clark chose to give up his powers makes the Smallville series feel empty to me. While Clark says, "I'd give anything to be normal." in the first episode, knowing that they're other versions of Clark that have their powers and get to be a father makes Tom's Clark feel selfish to me. I understand that Tom Welling never wore Brandon Routh's Superman Returns suit for a reason and that the Crisis director's pitch to Tom Welling is that Clark's true place was on the farm, but from an audience perspective, seeing Clark's journey from season 1 to season 10 now just feels pointless.

    I loved this show, or at least I did when it was still an origin story. At some point it went from "Clark Kent before he was Superman" to "Superman just without his costume or name." He even formed the Justice League without being Superman. Had "No tights, no flights" not been in the contract, it would have been such a good way to see the young Clark finally put on the cape and actually have some time as him as Supes, making all the time we spent with him finally payoff and be the hero he is destined to be. Instead we had multiple seasons of Clark delaying the innevitable and avoiding the costume but still saving the day like Superman. Smallville should have converted into a Superman show halfway through its run.
