Eric Summers should have been the vessell for Zod (IMHO)

[qprno1fan]

That would have been kinda cool, as he would have had reason to want revenge on Clarkto go with Zods reason for rengence against Kal ell , also the chemistry between Ashmore and Welling in the two episodes they were against each other was fantastic. They could have still given Lex the abilities temporarily as a distraction, this would have been nuts and thrown everybody off. However MR does play a good bad guy.

Hahahahaahhahaha!

Lex feels way more betrayed by Clark than Eric does. I dont think it is even comparable.
I do love Ashmore's character though.

Another Clark v.s. Eric Summers?

No thanks!

But how about Eric Summers v.s. Jimmmy Olsen?

[DeeperWell]

I don't think that would work! Or rather I don't want that to ever happen.

I still feel Zod should not have been a vessell. Zod should have been Zod.

^^Yup. In Solitude before the retcon, he had his own body. I hated that retcon. I thought Michael Rosenbaum did a good job, but I still wanted Zod seperate from Lex.

One good thing they failed to do is show how Zod possessing Lex made him even more paranoid & hateful towards aliens.

Yes I agree, but the worst part was the lame fight we got! It seems they ran out of budget to do anything else. :\

Zod didn't have a body. Fine was going to use Clark as a vessel for Zod, and he thought it wouldn't have worked cause Clark was too strong.

I agree about the alien thing. I liked seeing MR play a bad guy with real power, but would have liked it if they kept them separate. If lex should join with anyone, it should be braniac, but that may come later.

I know the story they came up with for why zod didn't have a body, but it really doesn't make sense. I mean, clark went into the zone, why didn't zod take out his body while he was there? Is zod the only one who lost his body?

[Superboy2]

Those phantoms also lost their bodies. Like in Wither, Labryinth, Fallout and Phantom.
