15 Reasons To Check Out ‘Smallville’ When It Hits Hulu

11: Smallville’s Take On DC Comics Villains

Throughout the ten years, we see the introduction of several iconic Superman (and DC related) villains come to life as the show did their own takes on antagonists such as Darkseid, Doomsday, Brainiac, Zod and many others. While the producers and writers would put their own take on some of these famous villains, they always managed to honor the comic book history and lining it up with the mythology in one way or another. I will acknowledge that some of them were interesting choices purely because they showed up at a time when Clark wasn’t Superman. But again, this was the kind of change that I was OK with because as long as they featured the essential character traits of who they are in the comics, I’m all good.
