Well, this is certainly interesting.
Excerpt from Al Gough's interview with Sci-Fi magazine:
As for Lex, look for him to get even darker this season, says Gough. "Initially he thinks he has a sort of religious experience and tries to put himself on the straight and narrow, but ultimately that doesn't really stick. He's up to no good again."
Well, I never saw that one coming. Um, desperate for a plot line much? And if he goes on the straight and narrow because of Lana, I will scream.
Excerpts from writer Darren Swimmer in the latest issue of Smallville magazine
Lana has been at the center of Clark and Lex's motivations for six seasons and her death could radically change the balance of relationships in Smallville.
Of course, everything Clark and Lex have done has been motivated by love for her. Uhuh, yeah. Why am I not surprised?
