Let us review last week's depiction of Perry. He's a 50-ish award-winning reporter turned tabloid hack. His reputation is shot to shreads, and will take *years* to rebuild. Now he's to become editor of a world-class newspaper and supposed to hire Clark based on meeting him as a teenager? Not bloody likely. Of course, they could easily turn the Daily Planet into another supermarket rag. Frankly, it wouldn't surprise me--they've destroyed everything else.
Anyone who knows me knows that, while I liked the *concept* of Smallville, I hate what they've done with it. I've heard over at Kryptonsite that the original concept was for a young Batman, and that makes more sense given the characters and the storyline. UnClark is more like a Bruce Wayne figure than a Clark Kent, anyway.
I'm holding out for Jason Trask to show up and rid the world of the menace that is the felonious UnClark.
