Missing Lex...

[out_there]

Okay, you guys know I love Lex, right? I mean, his occasional brattiness aside, I really do adore the guy.

But, sometimes? Sometimes, I just miss Lex. I miss his constant scheming, his full head of hair and his lack of purple clothing.

And on a more amusing note, how funny is it that Clark, and Clark, basically look the same age. Heh.

I'm scarred for life.

I think someone had told me that Adam of Mutant X had been Lex, but I never really grokked it.

"Hee!" for the icon!

You didn't watch Lois&Clark? Really? It was my love of that Lex that made me watch Mutant X. Actually, he's still the main reason I watch it... well, that and the fact that it's so downright slashy. I mean, I can believe in mutants, and big evil mega-corporations, but believing that any of those characters are straight? I don't think so.

Did that really upset you? He was so smart, and devilishly handsome, and scheming, and he enjoyed being evil so much... And, apart from the enjoying being evil bit, not much has changed for him to be Adam. *g*

Heh. Right in the second episode, they told us Adam and Eckhart had a History, and then proceeded to have a double wedding, Jesse and Brennan and Shal to Emma, with Adam presiding as the Keeper of the Gay.

I'm just... I'm used to my bald Lex. I watched the animated series before I watched Smallville, and he's bald there too. So.

You didn't watch Lois&Clark? Really?

No, I was a young young thing. *G*

That's just making me feel old. *g*

I never saw the animated version or read the comic, so my knowledge of Lex was from the movies and Lois&Clark. By the time that Lex went bald on L&C, the series had gone downhill. Turst me, if you ever do see it, the first season is really enjoyable, and the second season isn't bad either. I lost it once you hit the third season, and Lex reappears, back from the dead and bald... (I think it actually followed comic ideas re: cloning and Lex's lack of hair, but the rest of the series sucked by that time...)

Basically, a very enjoyable Lex, Clark and Lois. Plus the secondary characters rocked too (Clark's parent, Perry White, Jimmy, Kat).

Oh honey, that sums it up perfectly! Keeper of the Gay, indeed.
