I had forgotten about the tracker. I'm glad that Clark found a way to get it out without people finding out about his powers, even if it did make him look incredibly weird.

"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)
