Aha! I think that answers everything ... Hopefully.
Of course, I can't comment in anyway without giving something away...
Hmmm, maybe, maybe not. There have been so many twists and turns in this story that it wouldn't surprise me in the least if Clark did end up going to see if there is anything left of Krypton.
Yes, plenty of time. Much can happen in ten months. Knowing Bernie, he will be waiting for Clark to make the decision to head out there. After all that is where the truth is....
I can honestly say I have no idea what will happen with this. I'm not even sure what I
want to happen with this. But it
is a dangling end that I will address. After I figure out how.
