Why am I concerned that Lex Luthor will wake from his vegetative state and that Clark's Kryptonian birth-wife will show up?
Won't happen. This is Carol, remember? Light-hearted, WAFFy, romp-y Carol! She only does nice things to her characters and makes her readers grin with sappiness and sweetness.
Sorry about that. You still have plenty of time to surprise us, Carol, and I'm certain this won't be the last story in this series. You still have the one about Lex waking up, the one about Zara showing up with Ching, the one about the clone, and the one about Lois' PTSD (from whacking Trask) to write. This one will be gentle and sweet.
You'll leave the WHAMs for the next story.
And the one after that.
And the one after that...ad infinitum.
