No Darkseid in Smallville Finale

No Darkseid in Smallville Finale

Those of you expecting Darkseid to gain a body will be gravely disappointed.

Smallville's version of Darkseid is slightly different than that of the comics.

In Smallville's universe, Darkseid is a black cloud of evil, that preys on the weak souls and turns them evil branding them with an invisible Omega mark. He usually has a host body to move as well as a group of disciples (Gordon Godrey, Granny Goodness, Desaad) who will help him turn everybody on Earth evil. He has tried numerous times throughout the ages and Hawkman (who died in the last episode) has been part of the team that defeated him previous. Darkseid's main goal is to take over the Kryptonian Clark Kent.

Many were expecting Darkseid to create a body that we are used to from the comics. Sadly this won't happen. Instead, he will have a massive army of people he has infected and it will take the hope, good character and inner strength of Superman to save the world and get rid of Darkseid. After all of his influence is gone, he is sent to the Phantom Zone by Clark using his newly re-created crystal.

LX-15 (Lex Luthor's younger clone) will have managed to slow his aging process and have become Michael Rosenbaum by this time (Producers are planning)

I don't think anyone's expecting to see the comic book version of Darkseid, as they told us that wouldn't be the interpretation before the season started.

"After all of his influence is gone, he is sent to the Phantom Zone by Clark using his newly re-created crystal."

This is really just your speculation, because they haven't even finished writing the episodes.They just finished episode 17 about a week and a half ago.So we really have no clue how the season will end.They have said he will have a physical body eventually, but we don't know what it will be.

we saw him wit a physical body even if it was briefly n he will be a physical threat as well as the mental threat he is at the momen according to the producers of the show they said it in a interview.

I dont think they are going to all this effort with darkseid,just so he can be played by a group of infected people,because clark wouldnt fight all these infected people so if thats the case we are just going see something like clark get sum crystal and take the darkness away from people..then what
so i think they are going to give him a physical form

Oh yea, this completely explains the casting call of producers looking for a massive guy to embody Darkseid in the season finale?

It's ok for me. After that halloween suit they called "doomsday" last season, i really prefer not to see any other super-villain in the show.
But a cloud! They could make a movie crossover with that Gallactus thing we saw in that other forgettable FF movie.
Darkseid vs Gallactus: Cosmic fart.

WHAT??!! This is [frick]ing retarded, I swear Smallville is the cheapest [frick]ing show in the world. They won't even put out the slightest effort to put in Darkseid. [frick]ing lame-ass [frick]s.

The first 5 seasons were good. Everything that has come after has sucked balls. I cannot believe they managed to keep people interested in developing Superboy into Superman for an entire DECADE and he's still not even able to fly and people continue to claim that this show is brilliant. I may tune in for the last episode, but in truth the only thing I expect from this show is further mediocrity and dissapointment.

Sounds about right. It all depends on Rosenbaum, if he does the last few episodes Darkseid is going to get screwed. But I don't think most fans would mind that trade.
