Yeah, Brian doesn't really work for me either, but I have personal reasons for that.

But anyway, great progress on this, Nan! I really, really liked Clark's conversation with the clone. Others have commented on Lois's 'Superman's not a name, it's just a description' line - I loved it too. Except I did half-expect the clone to ask Clark what his name was after Lois said it and then continued to call him Superman!
More soon, I hope - especially since you clearly have Clark preparing to tell Lois the truth soon!
