I spend a lot of time and money buying and reading comics. Most of the time I'm happy with my choices, sometimes not. I'm hoping,that with my reviews on what I've read, I might spare someone else dissapointment. I'll read anything, but I can't afford everything. If there's something you'd like for me to read, let me know. If you take the time to read this, please, take the time to let me know what you think. I may not agree with you, or you may not agree with me. But, so what. That's life.

Smallville - Pandora - Season 9 Episode 9 - CW
This episode we find out what exactly it was that Lois saw in the future. Basically the Legion ring had taken her one year into the future. And it was pretty grim. Zod had built his solar tower. It absorbed solar radiation and then somehow turned it back on the sun, or the atmosphere, to turn the sun red. Apparently the red sun inhibitor that Jor-El put into the orb blocks the Kandorian's powers under Earth's yellow sun, but they gain they're powers under the red. And of course Clark is now powerless. We also find out that Chloe is leading the rebel alliance, and Ollie is her right-hand man. We find this out when they attack Lex's mansion. That appears to be Zod's base of operation. And when he captures Lois and Clark, that's where he takes them. We also find out that Tess is in league with Zod. But during the rebel's assault Chloe shoots and kills her. Ollie's a little distraught, since they once had a relationship, but Chloe shrugs it off as, 'I had the shot.' Anyways, all of this is expressed to Tess as she hooks an unconscious Lois to some sort of machine that reads her brain. Tess also hooks up, syncing her brain with Lois' so she can see exactly what Lois sees. The vision of her dying jolts her out of the process. She's ready to wipe Lois' brain when, finally, Clark shows up. My only question is, if Tess knows how all of this is going to turn out, why is she still so dead-set on helping Zod? Anyways, Clark knocks Tess out, but because of all the Kryptonite in the room he's also quickly fallen. Somehow he gets entangled in the machine and then he syncs in with Lois' visions. Chloe shows up to save him, but he's gotten enough information to try to make the right decisions. Apparently everything that happened was because of the way that Clark went about things . . the decisions he made. He went at Zod as an enemy which just strengthened his resolve and accelerated his time-line. So this time . . this time Clark is going to find Zod and approach with a hand of friendship. It'll be interesting to see how that works out for him. And of course because of the process all of Lois' future visions got erased. If not, she's have remembered the intimate relationship that she and Clark shared in the future. Which Clark has now seen. At the end of the episode there's a scene where Clark tries to talk to Lois about their kiss. Basically the decision is . . they decide to proceed, but . . they're taking it very, very slowly. I thought it was a good episode. It finally brought some of these dangling plot threads out into the open. The only problem is . . there won't be any new episodes until the new year. That stinks.
