Ooooh! Another Queenie
there was no telling what nasty little surprises might be left by the odd twists and turns taken by a universe's given history.
Giant, flesheating flies?
Luckily, that world's Superman and recently-returned Lois Lane were able to set it on course for a brighter future.
ALT-World:
Of course, this was Smallville, so the chances of stumbling into a landmine or a fifty-foot monster or a homicidal maniac here were...actually, not as low as he should like, now that he thought about it,

Another fun setup, Mary!
