You know, there's another aspect to consider. Soon Clark's aging is going to stabilize and Lois will eventually catch up with him. So she's right, it is high time for him to leave the island and have a life of his own.

I feel a flutter deep in my stomach. Working at the Daily Planet would be a dream come true. I've thought about it so many times. Once I even went inside to approach Perry White with one of my freelancing articles. But when I stepped into the newsroom I smelled the ink, I drank in the bustling activity all around, I got a sense of the history of this proud paper. And I knew that I’d never be able to leave if I took that first step.

Its hard to imagine Clark Kent entering the Daily Planet building and not coming out with a reporter's job. thud

A writer's job is to think of new plots and create characters who stay with you long after the final page has been read. If that mission is accomplished than we have done what we set out to do, which is to entertain and hopefully educate.
