If this is how the writers make phantoms then there's no need for the Justice League!

There's all this hype about Cyborg, Flash, and Aquaman coming together in one episode, but what are they going to fight if this is how poor the phantoms are used, as freaks of the week.

If the creators and writers had done the show justice we would have seen Zod separate from Lex. Lex would have helped him, showing his evil to come, and then the superheroes could have come together to fight Zod. That would have been a good reason, otherwise it's just ratings without substance!

Maybe a Phantom Zone will be a fish alien, and Aquaman will be needed to reason with it...otherwise he's fairly worthless anyway...

On the other hand, maybe a triathalon with an alien being. Swimming against Aquaman, Running against Flash, Flying against Clark...

...and Cyborg can record it all with his built in camera eye, to be posted on youtube for all the world to see...till the Google buyers remove it for coyright infringement...

Ivy Lady wasn't a Phantom. She was a PZ Escapee, probably one of the easiest Clark will face. Remember, there were several flesh and bone prisoners that escaped, so we won't be seeing just Phantoms. The Phantoms will likely be the "major" threat that Clark and the JL has to deal with towards the end of the season, while the escapees will be Prisoners of the Week.

I thought that Raya killed the one kryptonian, and then the others killed Raya and only spirits (phantoms) went with Clark. I guess I'd have to rewatch the episode.

It seemed as if Raya killed Nam-EK, but I think he will be back with another actor in the part since the original actor is now on the series Heroes.
Maybe conveniently disfugured or something.
