    • Chloe Sullivan. Yes, "Smallville" was a TV series about the origin of Superman, but that doesn't mean that Clark Kent was the most important, or the most popular, character on the show.
    • Clark Kent. At the beginning of "Smallville," Clark Kent (Tom Welling) was the only hero in town with a big secret. He didn't have control of his powers, and he spent more time fretting over his non-existent love life and getting bullied by the football team than he did worrying about how to save the planet.
    • Lois Lane. Just like there can't be Superman without Lex Luthor, there can't be Clark Kent without Lois Lane (Erica Durance). Lois Lane, Superman's true love in many comic books, didn't arrive in Smallville until the fourth season.
    • Lex Luthor. Even though "Smallville" creators faked out the audience in early seasons by portraying Lex Luthor (Michael Rosenbaum) as Clark's friend, it wasn't long before Lex became the show's leading villain and Clark's nemesis.
  3. Characters that appear in Season 8 of Smallville. A. A.J. Adrianna (Toxic) Bart Allen. Russel Allison. Imra Ardeen. B. Bartender (Instinct)
