[QUOTE="Filby, post: 1553301, member: 7497"] For my part, I strongly believe that the "Jor-El" on the show really is Clark's father. Why is he acting in an "evil" manner? Well, the way I see it... he's a highly-evolved alien with no conception of the human concepts of right and wrong. "Good" and "evil" have no meaning to him, and he believes that Clark conquering Earth would be in mankind's best interest. If he's acting like a villain, it's that he just doesn't know any better. I'm 95% certain that Lex is not dead... I mean, he's Lex Luthor, he can't die. ;) And Lionel replacing his son by placing his brain in Lex's body? It would take all the emotional baggage out of Lex's descent into true evil. On a bit of a tangent, though, I [i]would[/i] like to see something along the lines of the above happening to that mad scientist from the Somerholt Institute: the explosion by the green-K water-tank doesn't really kill him, he wakes up stunned and crippled and, as a side-effect, a hundred times smarter, and uses his newfound brainpower to devise a way to transplant his brain into a new body. Bingo, Dr Whatsisname = the very first super-villain ever, and Superman's original arch-foe from 1938, the Ultra-Humanite. Bring back his minion Mary "Brainwave" Briggs with some new mental powers and you've got yourself two Golden Age villains ready to go. Of course, that's never going to happen, but I can dream.
