Season 9 Finale of Smallville: Salvation



Smallville's season nine finale brought fans slightly closer to seeing Superman in full garb, but not quite. Simply, a mirrored glimpse of things to come, as Clark's famous red and blue suit is literally made available to him at his fingertips. The show's ending was bitter sweet, leaving a heavy-handed cliff hanger with obvious things to come for the next season, which may sadly be it's last. In "Salvation," they managed to wrap the season up well in a neat little package, as the Kandorians are wisked away to their new planet thanks to the "Book of Rao," Zod included. Leaving us with Clark, falling off a building in a crucified pose, with a sharp chunk of blue kryptonite lodged in his stomach. The things I liked most about this finale was the glimpse of the future, the hard goodbye between Lois and Clark, and the final fight scene between Clark and Zod. I'm really hoping they carry this steam well into the next season, holding nothing back! If it is their last season... might as well end it with a bang!
