Ooo, I really liked this chapter. Love Season 1 Lois trapped in a time warp and I'm whimpering over here over damaged Clark.
Martha is great, as always and the interaction with the man in black ... /me shivers.
I haven't been a follower of the comics, so the speculation over Clark developing a split personality and wearing black has me intrigued. It's also supported with this...
Lois brought her hands up to the smooth, almost silky material covering his chest before giving a harsh shove. Her fingers scraped against the edges of a coarse design as he finally stumbled back.
Sounds like Spandex with a the S-shield design to me. Of course, I suppose you could still be teasing us with the Batman, but personally, I don't think so.
More soon,
BJ
