omg chael crash posted:Did we get welling in a suit? No, Smallville Supes got folded into Whatever Happened To The Man Of Tomorrow in the same vein as Donner Superman and Kingdom Come. Not seeing enough love for Lex KNOWING Clark Kent is Superman in that world and still not believing his Clark could be the Man of Steel.

Is there a CW source confirming Welling is WHTTMOT Clark or is that a fan connection? Because in that story Superman "dies" and Lois ends up with a dude is totally not Clark Kent.

It's possible, Smallville was basically made out of kryptonite.

Welling being powerless did lead to him punching Cryer-Luthor in the face and having Cryer-Luthor mope around that killing Welling wasn't worth it anymore. I got a chuckle out of that.

Rhyno posted:Is there a CW source confirming Welling is WHTTMOT Clark or is that a fan connection? Because in that story Superman "dies" and Lois ends up with a dude is totally not Clark Kent. I...think thats wrong? Clark takes gold Kryptonite to remove his powers, then assumes a false name to live out the rest of his life with Lois and their kids. Or maybe I am remembering it wrong. from the wiki: Since he has broken his own code never to kill, Superman, in penance, voluntarily enters a chamber containing a sample of gold kryptonite—which permanently strips him of his powers—and disappears into the Arctic wasteland. When the other heroes enter the remains of the Fortress, they find only Perry and Alice White and Lois still alive. Superman's body is never found and it is assumed by all parties that the powerless hero died in the Arctic. After the interview is over and Crane leaves the Elliot residence, it is indirectly revealed that the mechanic Jordan Elliot (a reference to Superman's father, Jor-El), Lois' husband, is Superman. He is without powers and living as an ordinary man with Lois and their son Jonathan, who is likely named after Jonathan Kent. Lois' words on the Man of Steel's final fate, "I never saw Superman again", is now understood to mean the man who emerged from the gold kryptonite chamber was no longer superhuman.

I mean, I simplified it but that dude who is totally not Clark Kent and Superman "dies" are the main beats. The Smallville cameo is almost nothing like that.

See, my takeaway was always Superman retires by giving up powers to raise family with Lois.

The big thing that makes it pretty clear it isn't supposed to be that story is Smallville Clark said his Lex is still alive (and the President.)

I think they're just trying to connect it to a comic story where Superman "retires" to raise a family and WHTTMOT is the most popular one (the only one, as far as I can think of)

Yet another nail in DC Universe’s coffin, as Stargirl is being marketed as a CW show, right down to the Twitter handle, without any DCU branding https://twitter.com/stargirl_cw/status/1204573549161136129?s=21 https://twitter.com/stargirl_cw/status/1204592891529531392

The guy in the Harley Quinn doing Bane is just doing a bad Tom Hardy voice and he's the funniest part of the whole show.

Ivy and Harley instantly sliding into teenage girls being overly polite to your parents every time they talked to the mom character, as well as the situation itself, really helped sell what the show is. It's clone high with DC characters where they can say gently caress.
