On comics and canon and Smallville

[mamadeb]

One of the perks of being a regular customer who pays much money in a local comic book shop - I get to read issues in the store itself. They don't mind because A. I'm careful and B. I still buy many comics.

Today, I read last weeks Action Comics, which is a Superman book.

The plot doesn't matter much. What does matter is that in the current canon, President Lex Luthor knows who Clark Kent is.

And, to quote Clark, who is talking to Batman, "He hates me. I don't know why. I don't hate him."

I think that canon has it that Lex is in love with Lois, so, of course, he'd hate the man who married her, which follows, in some way, canon from Lois and Clark. But, you know.

There are other possible interpretations. Must think on it.

Btw, I've been watching Lois and Clark in the mornings on TNT. And I've been wibbling on the romantic hetness of it all - weeping at enforced separations, squeeing about how much and how purely they love each other, melting at their kisses.

It's all very disturbing. :)

Oh, and I do mean pure. In this series, Clark comes to his wedding night with Lois a *virgin*. I think that's adorable, I do.
