I just watched this episode as they reaired it on CW, and I'm somewhat confused about the nature of "phantoms". If I recall correctly, we saw Baern in the Phantom Zone in "Zod", and he had a body, while other prisoners did not, implying that only some prisoners had their bodies destroyed, based on their crimes. Yet, when he came out of the Zone, he was a phantom, and had to inhabit a human. The bone-eater from Static and the Plant Lady, we never saw if they inhabited humans or came that way, but the crystal did not work on the bone-eater, and we don't know if it would have worked on the plant lady. What was different? What constitutes being a "phantom"? I may have missed something, or the show may be inconsistent. Post your thoughts here.

Nobody seems to have much thought on that, but it's an intriguing question. The Phantoms in the Phantom Zone haven't really been addressed before "Smallville" that I know of, so there isn't really any authority on that. Most likely the show is inconsistent & hopes nobody cares. -
