Sexy?!? I would never use that adjective to describe John Shea. I'll never understand the fans who think he's attractive.

Kevin Spacey did a good job, but he was channeling Gene Hackman. He definitely wasn't playing the suave businessman that Lex became in the late 80's. I like the portrayal, but the problem is that it's not a modern version of the character.

"It is a remarkable dichotomy. In many ways, Clark is the most human of us all. Then...he shoots fire from the skies, and it is difficult not to think of him as a god. And how fortunate we all are that it does not occur to him." -Batman (in Superman/Batman #3 by Jeph Loeb)
