What would YOU have done?

There needs to be a paradigm shift... something has to happen to disconnect him from Smallville. His character needs a reason to cut off ties with Smallville, to feel that he "can't go home again." While he also kind of shuns Pete and Lana in leaving Smallville, the death of the Kents justifies it.

That's why I suggested instability with his powers.  Good ol' rebellion would work as well.  You see a bit of that in the Smallville TV series.  The sad part is, there aren't many people who could do "rebel teen" Clark very well.  It'd almost hurt me to read it because it'd be so screwed up.

Earth-Thinker (Round 2)


It all starts 10 years before the end of Krypton. Krypton was faced with a crime master mind named "Black Zero". Black Zero crimes goes all over illegal
Krypton activity--such as mutanting animals and faking of Kryptonian body organs. Out of opinions, the Science Council create
