Review Opinion

Hey guys wadepool back with another Smallville episode review this time for Episode 16 Entitled "Scion" Her goes...

So first off we start with Tess dropping a bombshell on Clark that Alexander now going by Connor is in need of some mentoring, much to Clark's dismay. Next we have scene between Lionel and Tess now I'm not quite sure if this happens before or after her arrival on the farm with Connor, anyways.

Clark Finally decides to help Connor because he knows what it is like to feel alone. Later Connor overhears Clark telling Lois about Connor's other half. Connor runs to Lionel who gives him a ring with Red Kryptonite and Connor goes out and steals Lois. Later after some pretty awkard "moves"by Connor I hears Clark calling for them. Connor Confronts Clark and a battle ensues. Clark finally smashes the Red Kryptonite, only to have Lionel show up with good old Green K. After a cheery talk with Connor *cough*Sarcasm*cough* Connor decides to side with Clark and destroys the kryptonite with his heat vision, at the end he ask Clark to join his team when he is ready and shows his costume, Clark tells him that he has enrolled him in Smallville high under the name Connor Kent. Before the credits role we see Lionel in front of Lex's Grave saying that he would do anything to have him back then we a black fog roll in and manifest itself as Darkseid to end the episode.


My overall opinion it was a very well done episode I could of done with a few less moves on Lois by Connor but whatever. I really hope they are done with Filler episodes I mean there are only 7 episodes left. and from the looks of it we shouldn't have anymore (I hope) but overall I thoroughly enjoyed this episode.

Sound off below thanks.

This episode was good, but it scared the crap out of me. Lois almost got super raped. Terrifying!

Great ending! I thought they'd just pretend Lex never died in that explosion, but Darkseid bringing him back from the dead should be pretty crazy.

@gorgeousgeeks I know it was really concerning me

@Jay yah it was a good ending Darkseid looked pretty good to eh?

@JaySin420 The writers have said many times that Lex wasn't dead, but I wouldn't be surprised if they lied and Darkseid brings him back. I just refuse to believe that Oliver killed him with an exploding toy!

This was a great episode. I thought they wrote Superboy pretty good. Can't wait until April 15th! I hope the Booster episode is epic!

The ending was...AWESOME!

Yeah, not a bad Smallville episode but am I the only one annoied by the fact that Superboy got his costume and Clark still looks like a reject from Michael Jackson's "Thriller" video?

this episode was supercool. I agree, Clark gotta embrace that [frick]ing symbol goddamn it

but it's a jacked up story that superboy is lex.

To me Lex wont be brought back to life, this lex will remember what has like to hate on clark/superman (either related to darkseid taking over him or some other way)

Connor isn't Lex, he is Connor Kent/Superboy and is almost exactly the same as the comics- minus the brief Alexander bit.

I have a feeling that Darkseid is gong to make a deal with Lionel, in exchange for Lionel willingly letting Darkseid have his body, Darkseid will bring Lex back. Only after Lionel is possessed(a la Dan Turpin) will "he" find out that Lex was just in hiding and that Darkseid didn't really need any special power to bring him back to SV.

That screen cap of Darkseid needs to be about one second later. He was a lot more solid than that at the end.

This was one of the best episodes Smallville has done in a damn long time, and Darksied even looked pretty cool!

Heres hoping they end on a high note, I have a feeling Darksied is going to reanimate Lex or something...

I thought the episode was good but I didn't understand how Connor was able to beat of Clark that didn't make any sense. The effect that they used for Darkseid is probably the best CGI I have seen on this show it is quite cool.
