Superman and Lois continues to entertain in its second season. I am really impressed by how the super heroic feats are presented on a TV show budget. I do have one nitpick, admittedly a minor one. Why does Superman/Clark constantly seem to have a five o'clock shadow? That looks works for The Punisher, Daredevil or even Batman - but in my minds eye, the Man of Steel should usually be clean shaven. Hasn't TV Superman learned the "shaving with heat vision and a mirror" trick?

Maybe in today's market, they're going after the Oliver Queen look for his sexiness.
@Ross & Tobor: Or maybe it's just a hypno-telepathic illusion optically channeled through Clark's glasses. Similar to the Silver Age gimmicks of Clark's slightly "shorter" height and "lack" of spit curl!
Speaking of which; in answer to the Valkyrie's semi-rhetorical question, I would hazard to guess that Hela is using telepathic hypnosis to make Superman _think_ he's seeing Lois Lane. She is Loki's daughter, after all! So such trickery wouldn't/shouldn't be beyond her.
That's bothered me as well, from early on in Superman's presence on Supergirl. It may be just Tyler Hoechlin's face. Some guys just can't seem to be rid of it. (I've known a couple of them.)
On another note, how about a team-up of Valkyrie and Black Racer? The two could have a case of someone who, shall we say, applies to both of their jobs.
A really interesting team-up - be great to see more of these two together.
Not too bothered by the 5 o'clock shadow. And I much prefer Tyler Hoechlin as the Man of Steel to Henry Cavill.
Although, Henry's certainly more preferable than Brad Routh!
@Anon@11:24: I think you mean Brandon Routh. And while he didn't work out to well in Superman Returns, he was pretty successful in channeling Christopher Reeve in the Arrowverse's Crisis on Infinite Earths (to the point that I twice was almost certain that it was Reeve). I suspect that he wasn't allowed (by the material) to quite do that for SR.
Still, overall, my favorite Superman to date remains Dean Cain.
Not only the Superman image, but the entire concept, looks like a classic, goofy, Mort Weisinger-era Silver Age Superman story. ^_^
Thanks, that's what I was going for.
DC could even have done this, with Wonder Woman substituting for Valkyrie, and Circe for Hela--except Circe didn't become Diana's arch-foe until after the first Crisis.
Maybe swap Hela for the Duke of Deception, in drag?
That would certainly increase the Silver Age Silliness quotient of the tale. xD
Gene Hackman, as Luthor, would probably have called him "The Duck of Deception."
Sorry! I couldn't resist the UNFORGIVEN reference.
Duck, eh?
OK, how about Howard the Duck falls into some kind of time warp and meets Duck Dodgers in the 24&1/2th Century?
@KC: See STF #336.
