"Always hold on to Smallville..."
Those were Jonathan Kent's final words in Smallville,
which from 2001 to 2011 chronicled the trials and tribulations of a
young Clark Kent on his journey from farm boy to Superman. Host Zach
Moore is taking them to heart and will be covering each and every
episode of the hit TV series than ran for 10 seasons and over 200
episodes on the WB/CW...and ushered in the golden age of superhero
television we're currently enjoying today!
This week Zach is again joined by Mike Krause to discuss the twelfth episode of Smallville,
"Leech." It's Iceman v. Superman this time around, and our conversation includes the Ashmore twins, the Siegel and Shuster families' never ending battle for the rights to Superman, and Lana's Kryptonite necklace...it's back! And stick around to the very end when we ponder if Arrow is like a box of chocolates...then what is Smallville like?
