Wow, my very first post here on the boards. I'm a Superman fan all round. I first saw the Superman film and loved it. I have to admit that it wasn't an obsession until Lois and Clark came along though. This lead to my discovery of the comics which I read through much of the 90s (the best era for modern, exciting, romantic Superman and Lois/Clark in my opinion).
I've watched Smallville since it began and am just as obsessed as with LnC. In fact I do have to admit that it mas my biggest Superman obsession until my love of LnC was rekindled last year. I loved it so much that I began writing Smallville fanfic. I've now moved onto LnC fanfic but only got as far as writing down my long list of plot ideas.
I just thought I'd post a reply to the following, though, on the subect of Lois and Clark in Smallville.

Smallville is fun, if a little teen-drama at times (I still have watched Clark graduate from SHS yet). The one annoying fact about that show is that even though they finally got around to introducing the Lois character, it is Lana who is Clark's soul mate. 
From what I understand from spoilers (thanks guys), he only settles for Lois after something happens and it is impossible for him to ever have a relationship with Lana. Let's hope I'm wrong about this theory when I get to later seasons of the show. The problem with Smallville is that it's one of the biggest 'shipper' shows. People have their own couple that they want to get together and 'Clana' (Clark and Lana) lovers use the fact that something happens to Lana as proof that Clark would have still been with her otherwise, and therefore she is his soulmate. I don't want to go into all the reasons that 'Clois' (Clark and Lois) lovers discount this as it involves much plot proof and would give away soooo many good things.
If you keep watching I'm sure you'll see that the Clark/Lois relationship is so much more mature than the Clark/Lana one. There's also all these quotes from Clark: "you are the love of my life", "you're the one, always will be", "I love Lois and I don't want a day to go by when I'm not with her". Does that sound like someone who's 'settling' after he couldn't be with his so-called soulmate? I don't think so.
