What did I think? I thought it was very sexy. <lj-cut text="Beyond that...> Beyond that, I'm not sure. I liked Lex as Zod, looming in a dark leather trench coat. I liked the bits with Lionel and Martha. I wish Lois wasn't around, and I wish Lex was written the way I would write him so he had a consistent personality, when not possessed by Zod... Though frankly, I don't mind him being power-hungry and immoral, I just want him to be power-hungry and immoral in a certain way. I know that if I want these stories, I'll have to write them myself. I love it that Clark couldn't kill Lex. I love it that the Clark/Lex/Lana love/revenge triangle is thick enough to cut. And Clark in the Phantom Zone... that's so reminiscent of old <i>Adventure Comics</i> stories that I like it, too. But I have reservations. The attraction of the show is a double-edged sword now and I don't trust the characters or the storylines. I'm as much in love with Lex as ever, but I have to keep reminding myself that this isn't my Lex any longer. <br>
