This is my version of the popular idea of taking Smallville to the next level, by permanently setting the show in Metropolis and leaving Smallville behind, which is more or less where the eight season is being taken. I wanted to get Clark away from the flanel and t-shirts so used ony Season Eight clips to emphasis how he is now becoming the man behind the myth. Note: the idea behind Dean Cain is the popular theory that 'Curtis Knox' was the Smallville adaption of the comic character Vandal Savage, an immortal criminal mastermind and occasional thorn in Superman's side. Given their encounter in 'Cure', Knox/Savage would definately have a reason to hate Clark, and make a great enemy given more time to develop him on-screen.
