Smallville season 7 – spoiler-filled description!

Released by CW, this new description of Smallville season 7 is certainly full of spoilers.

BIGTIME SPOILERS ALERT !!!!

Now beginning its seventh season, this new interpretation of the enduring Superman mythology and its classic characters blends realism and adventure into an exciting action series. This season, Clark Kent (Tom Welling, “Cheaper By the Dozen”) and Lex Luthor (Michael Rosenbaum, “Kickin’ It Old Skool”) have become the sworn enemies that comic book aficionados have always known and loved.

 

Season seven brings exciting guest stars from the Superman mythology, including Dean Cain (”Lois & Clark”) and Helen Slater (”Supergirl”), plus storylines of Krypton and the El family. This season Clark will discover more about his home planet, who his parents were, what his future holds and why he was sent to Earth.

In last season’s finale, Lana (Kristin Kreuk, “Partition”) confronted Lex over his lies about the baby, confessed she was still in love with Clark and told Lex she was leaving him. Lana turned to Clark for comfort but when she revealed that Lionel (John Glover, “Brimstone”) forced her to marry Lex, Clark went after Lionel to stop his machinations once and for all. However, Martian Manhunter (guest star Phil Morris) stepped in to explain Lionel is on their side and together they’ve been working to stop Lex from finding the last Phantom Zone escapee as Lex needs the wraith’s DNA to fuel his army of super soldiers. Meanwhile, Lois (Erica Durance, “The Butterfly Effect 2″) had her own agenda for bringing Lex down and snooped around his base at Reeves Dam. When an armed guard confronted her, Lois was stabbed and left for dead. She called Chloe (Allison Mack, “The Ant Bully”) for help, but her cousin arrived too late and found Lois. As a despondent Chloe clutched Lois, her latent meteor power was revealed. Chloe healed Lois, but took on her wounds and collapsed. Lana’s car exploded when she tried to leave town, and the police confronted Lex at the dam and arrested him for murder. The wraith attacked Clark, creating Clark’s ultimate enemy – Bizarro. The two super men fought and their struggle caused Reeves Dam to break, flooding the area and leaving everyone in peril.

This season Clark will face his biggest battles yet. Bizarro is intent on destroying him as only one of them can survive. Clark has also lost the love of his life to a horrific accident; his adoptive mother Martha (Annette O’Toole, “Superman II”) has left for Washington; and the biggest trial for Clark comes in the form of his nineteen-year-old female cousin, Kara AKA Supergirl (newcomer Laura Vandervoort).

When the dam broke, Kara’s spaceship was released from the earth. She had been in suspended animation for years, having in fact left Krypton as a teenager with the intent to look after young Kal-El after he arrived on Earth. However, as she didn’t age when inside the ship, she now finds herself younger than her cousin and he’s now the one looking after her. Kara is fascinated with Earth’s culture and has difficulty remembering to hide her powers from the world. Her youthful abandon puts her in several precarious situations that land her in hot water and directly onto Lex’s radar.

Many thanks to Kriptonsite!
