11[[caption-width-right:350:''"You must write your own destiny... Kal-El."'']]
12A wealthy scientist, Virgil Swann dedicated his life to seeking out and establishing contact with extraterrestrial life. In 1989, he received a transmission from outer space and eventually deciphered it as a message from Krypton telling of the destroyed planet's last survivor, Kal-El.
13
14Fourteen years later, after seeing a newspaper photo of a Kryptonian symbol burned into the Kents' barn, Dr. Swann tracked down Clark Kent and invited him to his laboratory at the New York City Planetarium; when Clark came to visit him, he told him of his Kryptonian heritage and encouraged Clark to pursue his own destiny. In Season 3's "Legacy," it was revealed he was an old acquaintance of Lionel Luthor, who attempted to get info about Clark out of him. At the end of the episode, Swann somehow managed to get ahold of the key to Clark's spaceship.
15
16In Season 4's "Sacred", Swann died of unknown causes, though not before returning the spaceship key to Clark along with a final letter of encouragement. In Season 7, it's revealed that Swann, along with Lionel, the Teagues, and the Queens, founded a [[SecretCircleOfSecrets secret society called Veritas]] that was dedicated to protecting Kal-El (known to them as "The Traveler"). Swann also kept a journal that was passed down to his daughter Patricia, who gave it to Clark.
17----

36----
37* ActionGirl: Being a police officer, she had to be.
38* KilledOffForReal: In Season 5's "Lockdown."
39* MustHaveCaffeine: Amusingly, the only real connection she has with anyone outside of work is through their coffee (eg. Lana as the owner of the Talon and its fancy espresso rig).
40* RedeemingReplacement: Unlike Sheriff Ethan, she is not corrupt.

47[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/a4df1241175c7e694a651fa14e289977.jpg]]
48A doctor and surgeon at Metropolis General Hospital, Emil is kept on retainer by Oliver Queen beginning in Season 8; as Green Arrow's inside man, his job is to look the other way when a [[ComicBook/JusticeLeagueOfAmerica member of the team]] comes in with bullet wounds or even weirder injuries. Emil's role quickly evolves, however, and he becomes the team's tech-guy, biologist, coroner, and confidant all rolled into one. He's been to Watchtower, examined Doomsday's blood, and whipped up cures for [[EverythingsDeaderWithZombies zombie]] [[TheVirus viruses]], among other things. All in a days work for a SuperHero's MD.
49----
50* AgeLift: Hamilton is much younger here compared to his comic counterpart who's generally middle aged or older.
51* BadassBookworm: He's a SecretKeeper for the entire Justice League, and there's pretty much nothing you can do to make him reveal those secrets, even if he ''does'' panic a bit when threatened with physical violence.
52* CartwrightCurse: The two women he's been established as having any sort of romantic or sexual connection to, his wife and [[PairTheSmartOnes Tess]], are both dead, his wife before he ever appears on the show and Tess by the end of the show's run. This is weakened a bit by the Season Eleven comics, wherein Tess is essentially [[BrainUploading brought back to life]].
53* TheCoroner: Frequently gets to examine the bodies of the latest super-powered SerialKiller's victims.
54* DeadpanSnarker: Has his moments, usually when under pressure.
55* ElvisImpersonator: In "Fortune." Seriously.
56* GadgeteerGenius: EMP grenades, high-tech cars--you name it.
57* HiddenDepths: Turns out he's a hell of a singer, but hasn't performed--or even had a good time--since his wife died.
58* HomePornMovie: Films one with [[EvilGenius Tess]] while drunk.
59* KissingUnderTheInfluence: With Tess in "Fortune". Heads right into AliensMadeThemDoIt.
60* NonActionGuy: Emil has no fighting skills and doesn't pretend to, panicking very easily when threatened with physical violence. He never betrays the team, though, even under threat of torture.
61* NoSenseOfHumor: Often played this way. It's not so much that he's humorless, but that he's a very serious person with no time for jokes.
62* OmnidisciplinaryScientist: Biology, medicine, technology--Emil's good with all of it.
63* PairTheSmartOnes: With the equally bright (if in a [[ManipulativeBastard different]] [[TheChessmaster sort]] [[TheCracker of]] [[EvilGenius way]]) Tess.
64* TheQuietOne: Very calm and reserved.
65* SecretKeeper: For the entire ComicBook/{{Justice League|of America}}. He keeps it in the face of a VRA interrogation to boot.
66** In early season nine he was also the secret keeper for Chloe's BigBrotherIsWatching shenanigans. He apparently had been poking around inside the Watchtower without her realizing it and found her out.
67* TheSmartGuy: Frequently plays this role to Oliver, Clark, and company.
68* SugarAndIcePersonality: Fits this trope very well.

75A reoccuring ally who first met Clark in Season 2 as a lieutenant, and later appering in one episode for Seasons 3, 5 and 7. She also appeared in the Season 11 comics working with Dan Turpin, who previously appeared in a Season 8 episode.
76----
77* AgeLift: Unlike most depictions Maggie appears to be older than Dan Turpin by at least a decade assuming they are roughly the same ages as their actors.

86A girl who received meteor powers from a heart transplant from someone who has been killed by a meteor. She fights crime in Metropolis and is named "Angel of Vengeance" by Chloe.
87----
88* AdaptationalNameChange: In the comics she called Acrata, which is the name of her mother's organization in the show.
89* AdaptationalSuperpowerChange: In the comics, Acrata is a ShadowWalker.
90* AllThereInTheManual: Andrea feels guilty about her actions in "Vengeance" and jumps back from the slippery slope, but it happens during the online/DVD extra ''The Vengeance Chronicles'' rather than on the show itself. And only Chloe seems to be aware of it for the time being. Also, Andrea decides to continue as a superhero, with Chloe as her friend and confidante.
91* ClarkKenting: Mild-mannered reporter at the ''Daily Planet'' who wears glasses. Sound familiar?
92* TheCowl: She's a black-wearing dark vigilante that fights crime at night.
93* InASingleBound: She can jump from the ground to an office building's window and jump between buildings.
94* KillHimAlready: When Clark does a NeckLift to the week's bad guy.
95* PayEvilUntoEvil: She kills criminals that deserve it.
96* ShadowArchetype: To Clark. Both of them had a parent they lost indirectly due to Lionel Luthor. And at the time of their meeting, both of them were driven by vengeance. However, while Clark was able to turn back from JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope by remembering his late father's advice, Andrea unfortunately let her pain and anger get the better of her, and after killing the man responsible for murdering her mother and doing nearly the same to Lionel (he ordered the hit) before disappearing from public view as a fugitive.
97* SuperStrength: She can easily send grown men flying.
98* UncertainDoom: In the Season 11 comics Rose Wilson claimed to have taken Andrea down, but it isn't made clear whether she killed her as she didn't kill Stargirl when she had the chance and Superboy doubted she could actually kill someone.
99* [[YouKilledMyFather You Killed My Mother]]: She says this to Lionel, who ordered the hit on her mother.

102[[folder:Legion of Superheroes]]
103!ComicBook/LegionOfSuperHeroes -- Rokk Krinn (Creator/RyanKennedy), Imra Ardeen (Creator/AlexzJohnson), Garth Ranzz (Creator/CalumWorthy), Brainiac 5 (Creator/JamesMarsters)
104[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/e731ed20df24257b8b354e1a8b37747b.jpg]]
105* ActionGirl: Imra.
106* AmbiguouslyHuman: They're said to come from other planets though in the comics it varies whether the Legion are HumanAliens or descended from Earth colonists. We'ree not told which is the case here.
107* BookDumb: Garth is implied to be this.
108* CivvieSpandex: They sport outfits inspired by their comic costumes presumably for disguise. The Season 11 comics have them in their classic outfits in the 31st Century.
109* ComicBookMoviesDontUseCodenames: They are never called Cosmic Boy, Saturn Girl and Lightning Lad. Inverted with Brainiac 5, who is never called by his civilian name, Querl Dox.
110* ExtraOreDinary: Rokk
111* {{Fanboy}}: Garth is an unabashed Kal-El fanboy. Fortunately, it's one of the rare harmless examples of this in-show.
112* FantasticRacism: Have suffered it, courtesy of radical Humanists.
113* FreudianTrio: Garth's the Id, Rokk the Ego, and Imra the Superego. This is more or less consistent with their portrayal in the comics.
114* GadgeteerGenius: Brainiac 5. He's the one behind the Flight Rings and most of their other tech.
115* HeelFaceTurn: The Legion re-programs [[RoboticPsychopath Brainiac]] into [[GadgeteerGenius Brainiac 5]].
116* HumanAliens: Imra, Garth, and Rokk all look pretty darn human.
117* OmniscientMoralityLicence: Think they have one, due to being from the future.
118* MythologyGag: Garth asks Clark to sign a baseball for his sister. Those who've read the Legion comics know that she's Light Lass, one of the other Legionnaires.
119* ShockAndAwe: Garth, again.
120* ShootTheDog: Their objective.
121* SmallRoleBigImpact: Rokk, Irma and Garth only have one major appearance in the series (with Rokk later having an additional cameo in "Doomsday"), but their introduction in the episode "Legion" has a massive impact on how the last three seasons of the show play out.
122** Clark and the Legion separate Brainiac from his host, Chloe, without having to kill her, which later leads to Chloe running off with Davis Bloome in the latter half of Season 8, something that did not happen in the Legion's original timeline. Ultimately, this change in the timeline results in Jimmy Olsen's death and the Justice League temporarily drifting apart.
123** The Legion give Clark two of their rings, so he'll be able to contact them or visit them whenever he likes. Lois gets her hands on one by mistake at the end of Season 8 and travels one year into the future. This event plays a vital role in the Kandorian arc of Season 9, when she discovers [[BadFuture a world where Zod conquered the Earth]] ("Pandora") and she returns to her own time with [[TraumaInducedAmnesia repressed knowledge]] of everything she learned ("Savior", "Pandora").
124** In Season 10's "Homecoming", it's revealed that the Legion's decision to take Brainiac back to their own time and try to reform him actually paid off. Brainiac 5 shows Clark his past, present and future to convince him to let go of his doubts and regrets that are holding him back - and this is shown to be a very important, positive experience for Clark, that gives him another big push towards becoming the hero he was always meant to be for the rest of Season 10.
125* TheSmartGuy: Brainiac 5.
126* SugarAndIcePersonality: Imra comes off as TheStoic thanks to her {{Telepathy}}, but as the episode shows, she really does have a heart in there.
127* {{Telepathy}}: Imra
128** MindProbe: Although it backfires horribly against Brainiac.
129%%* ThouShaltNotKill: They pick it up from Clark.
130%%* TwoGuysAndAGirl

135[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/smallville_239.jpg]]
136A team of heroes that predated Clark's generation.
137----
138* AbortedArc: The reformation of the Justice Society of America ended up as this. The ending of ''Absolute Justice'' had Stargirl and Hawkman looking for the old JSA members with the implication they were going to restart the team. This plotline was never picked up again. Although the Season 11 comics would introduce Jay Garrick/The Flash and have him form the ComicBook/TeenTitans.
139* AdaptedOut: Ted Knight/Starman was cut thanks to his role being combined with Sylvester Pemberton/Star-Spangled Kid.
140* ActionGirl: Stargirl kicks a fair bit of butt.
141* ActionHero: Hawkman
142* AmbiguousSituation: Its unclear what happened to the remaining members of the JSA. Jay Garrick shows up in the Season 11 comics, but the fates of Alan Scott and the rest are never clarified.
143* BadassAdorable: Stargirl
144* BoomStick: Stargirl's cosmic staff which fires energy beams.
145* BreakingTheFellowship: Disbanded after Checkmate had them arrested on false charges. Although they were released, the members realized they couldn't defy Checkmate's resouces and opted to go their separate ways.
146* BrokenAce: ''All'' of them, but especially Hawkman.
147* TheCameo:
148** In addition to the character inroduced in the episode, the arrest footage feature brief appearances from Jay Garrick/The Flash, Alan Scott/Green Lantern, Ted Grant/Wildcat,and Al Pratt/The Atom. A number of members also appear in the JSA portrait including Dinah Drake/Black Canary, Jim Corrigan/The Spectre, Rex Tyler/Hourman, Terry Sloane/Mr. Terrific, Charles McNider/Dr. Mid-Nite, and Shiera Saunder-Hall/Hawkgirl.
149** Kent Nelson's voice can briefly be heard when the Beast Boy of Series/Titans2018 travelled TheMultiverse.
150* CarryABigStick: Hawkman's mace. His wife seems to have favored an EpicFlail.
151* CompositeCharacter: Sylvester Pemberton combines his comic self with elements of both Ted Knight/Starman I(Founding member of the JSA and creator of the Cosmic Staff) and Jack Knight/Starman VI(General look and personality)
152* CuteBruiser: Stargirl
153* DeathSeeker: Hawkman, and possibly Doctor Fate.
154** Stargirl also appeared furious that Green Arrow saved her life when she went up against Icicle. Though it's implied that she was acting somewhat self-destructively due to Sylvester's death.
155* DyingMomentOfAwesome: Hawkman. He fights Slade and is mortally wounded and set on fire, yet still flies to Lois' rescue before going out like the badass he is.
156* FaceDeathWithDignity: Hawkman. He tells Clark that he'll have no problem defeating {{ComicBook/Darkseid}}, apologizes that he won't be there to help him, and even cracks a joke about how he's the expert on dying, then closes his eyes and [[BigSleep appears to go to sleep]]. Generally speaking, it's a pretty dignified way to go.
157* TheGhost: Pat Dugan is only referenced by Courtney and never appears.
158* GirlyBruiser: Stargirl
159* GlassCannon: Doctor Fate's a RealityWarper, but goes down in one hit. He does seem to be a bit of a DeathSeeker, though.
160* HappilyMarried: For all their issues, Carter and Shiera.
161* {{Herald}}: Doctor Fate could be seen as this with the quote:
162--->'''Doctor Fate''': (''to Clark'') [[TheReveal And when you show yourself to the world]]...[[ComicBook/JusticeLeagueOfAmerica it will be a different age than]] [[ComicBook/JusticeSocietyOfAmerica ours]], Clark. A [[UsefulNotes/TheSilverAgeOfComicBooks silver age of heroism]]...that will start when they look up into the sky at you with [[HopeSpringsEternal hope for tomorrow]]. [[TheParagon You will help everyone to embrace it]].
163* HeroicSacrifice: Doctor Fate sacrifices his own life to restore ComicBook/MartianManhunter's powers.
164** Hawkman in "Icarus."
165* HeroWithBadPublicity: They were arrested and framed by the goverment organization Checkmate. Although they were eventually released, the false charges remained until Lois writes an article to restore their reputation.
166* ILetGwenStacyDie: Hawkgirl for Carter, who died at the hands of the first Icicle.
167* IntergenerationalFriendship: Between Stargirl and the older members of the Society. Hawkman eventually forms one with Clark and Oliver.
168* KilledOffForReal: Star-Spangled Kid, Sandman, Doctor Fate, Hawkman.
169* LittleMissBadass: Stargirl
170* MaskOfPower: The Helmet of Nabu grants whoever wears it Doctor Fate's powers. God help you, though, if you aren't its personal choice.
171* PermaStubble: Carter has a short beard.
172* RealityWarper: Doctor Fate's powers.
173* {{Reincarnation}}: Hawkman and Hawkgirl are the reincarnated selves of an Egyptian prince and his wife.
174** ReincarnationRomance: Hawkman and Hawkgirl again.
175* SacrificialLion: Doctor Fate.
176** And Hawkman in "Icarus".
177* TalkativeLoon: Doctor Fate in his human form as Kent Nelson.
178* TogetherInDeath: Implied with Hawkman and Hawkgirl.
179* TrueCompanions: "Family isn't just about blood."
180* UndyingLoyalty: They stuck together in the face of their arrests, something Clark admired even when he thought they were criminals.

185An intergalactic police force created by the Guardians of the Universe. However one of their members, Hal Jordan, was possessed by Parallax and used to decimate the Corps into only a few members.
186----
187* AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul: The Yellow Lanterns were created by the Guardians to back up the Green Lantern Corps instead of being an antagonistic force like the Sinestro Corps.
188* AmbiguousSituation: How Alan Scott relates to the larger Green Lantern Corps is unclear, with John Stewart admitting he has no idea how he got a power ring. In the comics, Alan's power source is quite different and he took the name by sheer coincidence.
189* DeathByAdaptation: Hal Jordan, Guy Gardner, and Kyle Rayner are killed before they meet any other superheroes and never joined the Justice League. Tomar-Re was killed in Krypton's destruction which he survived elsewhere, while Ganthet and the Guardians were murdered by Parallax.
190* DemotedToExtra: The other human Lanterns are only referenced in the backstory.
191* DeadAlternateCounterpart: In regards to their Earth-12 counterparts, Hal is believed to have been killed by Parallax while Tomar-Re was killed by the destruction of Krypton. The Guardians themselves were all killed by Parallax.
192* LegacyCharacter: After the original Guardians were killed by Parallax, the surviving members of the Corps agree to elect some of their members to be the new Guardians with John Stewart being one of them.
193* PowerGlows: The Green Lantern uniforms.

204* BattleCouple: With A.C. (or "Orin", as she prefers to call him).

206* FieryRedhead: Mera does not restrain from speaking her mind.
207* GreenEyedMonster: A bit towards Lois, since she briefly dated A.C. in the past.
208* HappilyMarried: To Arthur/Aquaman.
209* MakingASplash: She can control water and make it hit with enough force to knock Clark over.
210* NoSocialSkills: Whatsoever.

212* SatelliteCharacter: Her role in the plot revolves around being A.C./Orin/Aquaman's wife.
213* ShamelessFanserviceGirl: Changes clothes in front of Lois without even stopping to think about it and seems to enjoy making her fluster.
214* SmugSuper: Mocked Lois for not having powers and any skills she considers useful. She tells Lois to her face that she doesn't understand what Arthur, Oliver, and Clark saw in her. Mera gets over herself when Lois helps them defeat [[GeneralRipper Slade]].

232A team assembled by Oliver Queen in Season 6 with the intent of taking down [=LuthorCorp=]'s Level 33.1, the ComicBook/{{Justice League|of America}} has gone through many goals and a constantly rotating membership ever since. Simultaneously an elite strike team and a RagtagBunchOfMisfits, the as-yet-unnamed League has handled everything from {{Corrupt Corporate Executive}}s to {{alien invasion}}s, all while doing their best to stay under the radar.
233----
234* BadassCrew: Let's see--we got the [[ComicBook/TheFlash Fastest Man Alive]], an ActionGirl with a sonic scream, a {{Cyborg}} with SuperStrength, and the King of the Seas. All led by the biggest BadassNormal in the show, with the occasional assist from ComicBook/{{Superman}} and [[ComicBook/MartianManhunter Mars' Last Survivor]].
235* BigDamnHeroes: Often.
236* CheapCostume: Bart wears sunglasses and a red hoodie with a lightning bolt sewn on. Oliver wears green leather and, again, sunglasses. A.C. dresses in green scuba pants and an orange shirt. Victor wears a silver-grey jumpsuit. Dinah relies on a makeup mask, a [[HellBentForLeather black leather outfit]], and a wig in her SecretIdentity. Clark, of course, had his red jacket/blue shirt combo (later a black BadassLongcoat). For bonus points, compare their looks with those of the JSA, who all wear their classic spandex costumes.
237* DeadpanSnarker: All of them on occasion, but especially Victor.
238* DistressedDude: Each of them has been caught by Lex in some way or another and needed to be saved by Clark. Something Chloe points out in "Justice".
239* LaResistance: How they see themselves.
240* {{Superhero}}: They move closer to the archetype with every episode, but aren't quite there yet, having yet to move into the public eye or wear their classic costumes.
241* WesternTerrorists: How the government (and [[BigBad Lex]]) see them.
242* YourTerroristsAreOurFreedomFighters: The government considers them terrorists for attacking holding facilities and blowing up Lex's 33.1 installations. The League sees themselves as [[LaResistance freedom fighters]], keeping people like Lex and Slade Wilson from experimenting on metahumans.

250A billionaire playboy on the surface, Oliver was orphaned at a young age. This experience, combined with being stranded on an island a few years before the series began, prompted him to become a crimefighter, putting the archery skills he learned on the island to work as the Green Arrow, a leather-clad vigilante, with a sometimes shaky moral code.
251
252First arriving in Metropolis in Season 6, Oliver dated ComicBook/LoisLane and clashed with Clark over whether a pro-active or reactive approach was the best way to deal with crime. Frustrated with Clark's HeroicNeutral tendencies, Oliver gathered the proto-ComicBook/{{Justice League|of America}} in an effort to shut down his old classmate ComicBook/LexLuthor's Level 33.1 laboratories, eventually leaving Smallville (and Lois) to fight [=LuthorCorp=] all over the world.
253
254Returning briefly in Season 7, Oliver had his secret outed in front of Lois during a battle with ComicBook/BlackCanary. In Season 8, he became a regular cast member. This led to many revelations about his past, including his tortured relationship with [[TheBaroness Tess Mercer]], whom he assists in taking over [=LuthorCorp=]. Oliver would go on to struggle with an intensification of his already-existing feelings of self-loathing, emptiness, and alienation. Entering a relationship with his girlfriend seemed to help snap him out of it, but her disappearance early in Season 10 sent Oliver into another downward spiral.
255
256A deeply screwed-up young man with [[HeroicSelfDeprecation an extremely negative view of himself]] and the world, Oliver has clashed with the more idealistic Clark on many occasions. Despite this, he remains a loyal friend to the future Superman, a great (if flawed) {{Superhero}}, and one of the biggest badasses in the entire show.
257----
258* TheAlcoholic: Oliver's always had a drinking problem, but in Season 9, he descends into this.
259* AntiHero: When we first meet him, he believes that, if a CorruptCorporateExecutive buys valuable artifacts from evil warlords or TheMafia, it's justifiable to steal the artifacts away from them and use them to fund charities. He provides the cynicism to Clark's idealism and, unlike our hero, is willing to stray from ThouShaltNotKill if he deems it necessary.
260* TheArtifact: As Green Arrow, he always wears a hood, dark sunglasses, and a voice modifier...even after he publicly reveals his superhero identity, making all these disguises completely unnecessary.
261* AscendedExtra: He started out as a recurring guest character for the first half of Season 6, after which Oliver left town. But fan response was so overwhelmingly positive to the character that Ollie was brought back to guest star again in an episode of Season 7, and then brought on as a full cast member from Season 8 onward.
262* BadassNormal: He more than makes up for lack of superpowers with archery and athleticism.
263* BashBrothers: With Clark by the later seasons.
264* BrokenAce: Oliver is rich and successful, moonlights as a superhero, and has more women than he can handle. And he ''hates'' himself, as demonstrated by his self-destructive tendencies, alcoholism, inability to commit to anything, and attempted suicide in Season 9.
265* TheCasanova: Pre-Lois and Chloe.
266* CheapCostume: A green leather hoodie and sunglasses. Somehow, he makes it look badass.
267* CompositeCharacter: He's Green Arrow in name and abilities, but his status as the more cynical BadassNormal AntiHero to Clark's idealist who eventually becomes his best friend is more similar to Bruce Wayne.
268* TheCorruptible: As proven by Desaad in "Masquerade" and referenced by Zod in "Dominion".
269* TheCynic: Contrasting with Clark's [[TheIdealist idealist]].
270* DeadAlternateCounterpart: [[InvertedTrope Inverted]]. Confirmed to still be alive in 2018, all his counterparts are either dead or their status is unknown.
271* DespairEventHorizon: Hits it in Season 9. After an intervention from Chloe, he gets better.
272* DualWielding: In "Dominion".
273* {{Expy}}: There are some sharp similarities between his characterization and relationship with Clark, and that of ComicBook/{{Batman}}. Throw in the fact that ''Film/TheDarkKnightTrilogy'' likely meant the writers couldn't use Bruce, and that makes a lot of sense all of a sudden.
274** Appropriate, given that initially ComicBook/GreenArrow was very much [[PoorMansSubstitute the poor man's Batman]] in the comics, with his earliest stories featuring Speedy as a blatant {{Expy}} of Robin, as well as an Arrow-Mobile and even an "Arrow Cave."
275* FatalFlaw: His self-loathing. Oliver became a hero partly to make up for how bad he used to be but he is willing to cross lines either because of his low self-view of himself or overzealous desire to get over it and when he does such things it causes him to view himself as unworthy of being a hero, leading to even more self-loathing. His flaws essentially feed into themselves.
276* FriendsWithBenefits: What he and Chloe try to be in Season 9, even though...
277** EveryoneCanSeeIt: They feel for each other much more strongly than that.
278* GoodCounterpart: To Lex, the two acting as a [[MirrorCharacter reflection]] of the other in regard to their journey and relationship with Clark while the two have similar character flaws. Lex started out as friends with Clark but his personal flaws and toxic relationship with Lionel led him down a dark path that resulted in him becoming Clark's ArchEnemy. Oliver meanwhile started out as a reluctant ally to Clark, with it taking some time for the two to become genuine friends and while his flaws cause problems he ultimately is able to overcome them to become a better hero unlike Lex who decides to simply embrace them.
279* GunKata: Against Lex in Season 7's "Siren".
280* HellBentForLeather: His superhero costume is made of leather
281* HeroicSelfDeprecation: Saying that Oliver hates himself is not an understatement.
282* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Clark.
283* HonestCorporateExecutive: Every cent of Queen Industries' money was earned honestly. Ollie treats his employees fairly and, unlike Lex, refuses to sell to the bad guys. This is actually one of his biggest problems with Tess and the Luthors--the way they let their desire for profit get in the way of ethical business practices.
284* IDidWhatIHadToDo: Regarding his murder of Lex. In fairness, the latter character ''was'' trying to mass-murder everyone in Metropolis.
285* IconicSequelCharacter: He is introduced after Season 5 but is a memorable character. So memorable in fact, that he became the foundation of ''Smallville'''s [[invoked]]SpiritualSuccessor.
286* InSpiteOfANail: Despite many differences between himself and his counterpart from ''Series/{{Arrow}}'' in terms of background and personality, they have lived very similar lives to each other in comparison to the comic book version. Both were [[Main/TheCowl cynical powerless vigilantes]] who were good friends with [[Main/TheCape a more optimistic superhero with powers]], ended up in relationships with women who acted as mission control to their teams as opposed to their comic book love interest Black Canary, and eventually each had a child with their respective wives with neither one being Connor Hawke who is his son in the comics. Also unlike in the comics they essentially replace [[ComicBook/{{Batman}} a more famous superhero]] in their respective universes, with it later being revealed that said hero had already established himself and been active for years.
287* InterruptedSuicide: Clark stops Toyman's bomb before Oliver can use it to kill himself in Season 9's "Echo".
288* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He may seem oblivious and jerky at times, but his heart is always in the right place.
289* KarmaHoudini: {{Deconstruction}} It was revealed in "Reunion" that he accidentally caused the death of one of the classmates that he bullied. We don't actually see if he gets punished, but either way, Oliver's self-loathing as an adult has its roots in this incident, and his desire to be a hero is partly about trying to redeem himself.
290** Oliver also never faces legal repercussions for straight-up murdering Lex in Season 8 and pinning it on Winslow Schott. Instead, he falls into a guilty, suicidal depression in early Season 9, renounces his vengeful, murderous ways for good after "Roulette", and is metaphorically redeemed by overcoming Darkseid's corruption at the end of Season 10. Lex's eventual resurrection means Oliver is a hero who literally got away with murder.
291* LadykillerInLove: With Lois in Seasons 6 and 7, and with Chloe in Seasons 9 and 10.
292* TheLancer: Started out as TheLeader to the ComicBook/{{Justice League|of America}}, but rapidly shaped up to be this to Clark.
293* TheMasqueradeWillKillYourDatingLife: It certainly blew up his relationship with Lois.
294* MrFanservice: Seen very often without a shirt on.
295* NiceJobBreakingItHero: In the Season 8 finale. He and Chloe are more or less responsible for Jimmy's death.
296* NonIdleRich: Ollie is one of the richest men in the world, and he uses his wealth, connections, and company to fight for what's right.
297* ParentalAbandonment: His mom and dad died in a plane crash when he was very young. Guilt about it has left him very bitter
298* PayEvilUntoEvil: His murder of Lex after Lex threatens to nuke Metropolis. He feels incredibly guilty about it and people scold him, but given how much of a twisted sociopath and would-be mass-murderer Lex had become, it's easy to see why he did it.
299* PragmaticHero: Is willing to KILL villains, if it is for the greater good.
300* ProperlyParanoid: Frequently. He and Chloe collecting an arsenal of Kryptonite weapons in Season 9 may look irrational, but as the BadFuture episode "Pandora" proves, they really come in handy.
301* ReallyGetsAround: Tess, Lois, Chloe... not to mention all his other conquests.
302* ReformedBully: In high school, he was TheBully. He has since repented, but his role in the bullying of Duncan, Lex, and others is one of the reasons why he's come to hate himself. Despite Lex's turn to evil, Ollie actually makes a point of personally giving Lex a heartfelt apology for his behavior as a teenager. It's lampshaded in-universe that, although Ollie did some bad things a teen, he's been working hard to redeem himself...while Lex has gone in the opposite direction.
303* SecretIdentityIdentity: Oliver Queen really doesn't exist. Sometimes he's not sure Green Arrow does either.
304* SecretRelationship: With Chloe in Season 9. The relationship is soon discovered by Clark and Lois, though...
305* SharpDressedMan: Whenever he's in a suit.
306* ShootTheDog: Seems to be his job description some days.
307* SuicideByCop: Winslow Schott plans to kill Oliver with a bomb during one of Oliver's bleakest periods of depression and self-loathing... and Oliver actually tries to make Schott's plan work.
308* TeamMemberInTheAdaptation: {{Downplayed|Trope}} as Oliver did join the Justice League in the comics, but he was never a founding member.
309* TheTeamBenefactor: Provides all the nascent JLA's money.
310* TrickArrow: Tasers, gas--what will he think of next?
311* WhatTheHellHero: Courtesy of Chloe, after his murder of Lex. He turns it around on her by pointing out that she would have done exactly the same thing.
312* YouShallNotPass: In the BadFuture episode "Pandora". Armed only with his trusty bow and arrows. Against an entire swarm of super-powered Kryptonians. Badass.

315[[folder:Bart Allen / Impulse]]
316!![[ComicBook/TheFlash Bart Allen / Impulse]]
317!!!'''Species:''' Metahuman
318!!!'''Played By:''' Creator/KyleGallner
319[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bart-allen_8757.jpg]]
320A former thief gifted with SuperSpeed, Bart first met Clark when he saved Jonathan Kent from being hit by a car...only to immediately pick his pocket. After a rough beginning, he and Clark became friends, and Bart left town looking for other people like themselves. He later returned as a member of the ComicBook/{{Justice League|of America}} and has been a key member ever since, able to respond to crises moments after they begin.
321----
322* AccidentalTimeTravel: The Season 11 comics confirm he's from the 31st Century, where he was shown as a child meeting a time travelling Superman, though ''how'' he ended up in the past is unclear beyond that it had something to do with how he got his powers.
323* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: He debuts as a hero long before Barry or Wally in this version, and was an active crime fight and member of the Justice League years before Clark became Superman.
324* AdaptationalRelationshipOverhaul: This version of Bart not only became friends with a young Clark years before he became Superman, but he was also one of the first people with powers that Clark became friends with. In the comics Bart appears many years after Clark became Superman and the two never really interacted.
325* AmnesiacHero: Contrary to what he told Clark when they first met, the Season 11 comics reveal that he remembers nothing prior to getting his powers. A later story arc reveals that he comes from the 31st century and getting his powers somehow sent him back in time.
326* BadassAdorable: Has a childlike look, but is a strong speedster.
327* BigEater: He burns up a large amount of calories so he often eats large amounts of food quickly.
328* CassandraTruth: He really is from the future like he told Chloe, though ironically he isn't aware of this.
329* CheapCostume: His main outfit in the show.
330* ComicBookMoviesDontUseCodenames: Although he does use Impulse, he never adopts the Flash identity unlike his comic self.
331* CompositeCharacter: Is largely based off Bart Allen/Impulse, but his role as a founding member of the Justice League and friend of Superman are taken from Barry Allen/The Flash.
332* GratuitousSpanish: In "Justice".
333* HandsomeLech: Of the childish variety. He flirts with Chloe in all the times they meet, with varying but generally low levels of success.
334--> '''Chloe''': I still have a boyfriend.
335* HeelFaceTurn: From sneak thief to superhero. Not bad, Bart.
336* HeroicSacrifice: In the Season 11 comics, sacrifices himself in order to defeat the ''Smallville'' version of the Black Flash.
337* InTheHood: As seen in the above image.
338* LegacyCharacter: Oddly averted considering reliance on the trope in ComicBook/TheFlash. He had no idea who Jay Garrick was and never uses the Flash codename.
339* MythologyGag:
340** His fake identities are "Jay Garrick", "Barry Allen", and "Wally West", the first three Flashes from the comics (Season 11 would acknowledge this when they actually meet Jay). Bart himself in the comics became the fourth Flash.
341** Also, he tells Chloe he's from the future when using a bad pickup line, with Bart actually coming from the future in the comics. At the time however this wasn't revealed to be true for this version of the character.
342* NotWearingTights: His outfit has the traditional Flash colors, but looks nothing like any of the comics outfits. Season 11 give him a costume thats seems to take inspiration from Jay Garrick's look rather than any of his comic outfits.
343* ParentalAbandonment: He claims that he ran away from home after the way his parents looked at him after he got his powers. This was revealed to be a lie in the Season 11 comic, and his mother was briefly shown to be a woman living in the 31st century.
344* PetTheDog: Saving Jonathan from the truck and later Chloe from a gunman.
345* RequiredSecondaryPowers: He seems to have the "super-stopping" and "resistance to friction" things down.
346* SmugSuper: A mild, almost likable version. Bart's incredibly cocky about his SuperSpeed, and it tends to get him into trouble.
347* SunglassesAtNight: As part of his sort-of costume.
348* SuperSpeed: Duh.
349* TeamMemberInTheAdaptation: {{Downplayed|Trope}} as Bart did join the Justice League in the comics, but he was never a founding member.

355!!!'''Played By:''' Creator/AlanRitchson
356[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/arthur-curry_174.jpg]]
357A lifeguard with a penchant for eco-terrorism and corporate sabotage, A.C.'s attempts to destroy an environmentally unfriendly weapon developed by [=LuthorCorp=] ensured that he and Clark didn't get off to the best of starts. They were able to put their differences behind them, however, in the interests of stopping Lex; following this, A.C. left Smallville. After nearly being killed while sinking a whaling ship, A.C., now calling himself "Comicbook/{{Aquaman}}," was drafted into Oliver's superhero team after the latter saved his life. Captured and experimented on by [=LuthorCorp=] agents alongside Black Canary, A.C. went underground (or should that be underwater?) for some time, before [[IncrediblyLamePun resurfacing]] in Season 10, newly married and calling himself "Orin".
358----
359* BattleCouple: With [[ActionGirl Mera]] in Season 10.
360* TheBeastmaster: Has been shown to have some degree of ability at communicating with and controlling animals. The degree has not yet been explored.
361* HappilyMarried: As of Season 10's "Patriot".
362* JamesBondage: Three times, courtesy of Lex, Tess, and Slade.
363* KnownOnlyByTheirNickname: Not quite, but Arthur is usually referred to as "A.C.".
364* MakingASplash: Can form water into blasts or compress it into missiles. He also gains his SuperStrength and SuperSpeed from contact with it.
365* MobileFishbowl: A variation. A.C. has to drink or at least touch large amounts of water and avoid overheating or he loses his powers and may eventually die.
366* MrFanservice: Has a fit body, which he shows often.
367* SuperSpeed: In the water. He can swim faster than Clark can.
368* SuperStrength: Not quite to Clark's level, but the boy can do some damage, from breaking shackles to beating five or six [=LuthorCorp=] guards to a pulp with his bare hands.
369* SurferDude: In his earlier appearances. Softened later, but not entirely dropped until "Patriot."
370* WalkingShirtlessScene: Receives a LampshadeHanging from Victor.
371%%* WalkingSwimsuitScene
372* WellIntentionedExtremist: A.C. bordered on this in his first appearances, what with sinking ships and blowing up factories in order to [[AnimalWrongsGroup save the environment]].
373* WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway: Arthur manages to be pretty badass despite this.
374** Which makes sense, seeing as the idea of Aquaman being 'useless' is an idea from the ''Superfriends'' cartoon. Every other incarnation of him ''has'' been Badass.

382Presumed dead in the car crash that killed his parents and sister, Victor Stone was saved by [=LuthorCorp=] and resurrected as part of an experiment in cybernetics. Clark saved him from Lex's men and reunited him with his girlfriend, Katherine. Sometime afterwards, Victor and Katherine broke up, which led to him living on the streets; he was recruited by Oliver, who gave him a place to stay and a reason to keep on going.
383----
384* AdaptationalAttractiveness: In addition to being more lithe and lean than other versions of the character, he still has his entire face.
385* BackFromTheDead: Was reportedly killed in a car crash, but thanks to [=LuthorCorp=] technology, he's back and kicking.
386* DesperatelyLookingForAPurposeInLife: After his girlfriend left him, he ended up living on the streets until Oliver found and recruited him.
387* GeniusBruiser: He's the Justice League's muscle and their computer hacker.
388* HollywoodCyborg: Was re-built by [=LuthorCorp=] after a very nasty accident.
389* HollywoodHacking: Victor can interface with any system and download himself into it, allowing him to easily break any codes.
390* IJustWantToBeNormal: In his first episode. He seems to be over it by "Justice".
391* IOweYouMyLife: Towards Oliver.
392* NighInvulnerability: Not quite to Clark's level, but unless you're backing a laser cannon, you aren't getting through Victor's hide.
393* ParentalAbandonment: His mom, dad, and sister were killed in a car crash.
394* SuperStrength: He can tear steel blast doors off their hinges. No kidding.
395* TeamMemberInTheAdaptation: At the time the show was made he was best known as part of the ComicBook/TeenTitans, although later the ''New 52'' did have him as a founding member of the Justice League.
396* TokenMinority: Initially, Victor is the only black member of the Justice League. ComicBook/MartianManhunter later joins, removing this status from him.

405A right-wing vigilante with a passionate interest in justice, Dinah first appeared in Season 7, when she was hired by Lex Luthor to arrest Green Arrow, whom she believed to be a common criminal. After realizing she was on the wrong side, Dinah joined Oliver's team, helping to fight injustice round the world. She participated in the hunt for Clark in Season 8, helped battle Doomsday and Major Zod, and was most recently seen breaking out of the VRA's virtual prison in Season 10, alongside Clark, Oliver, Chloe, and Lois.
406----
407* ActionGirl: She was pretty [[DarkActionGirl dark]] in her first appearance, compared to the rest of the good guys. She becomes friendlier, but hasn't lost any of her badass points.
408* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: Her being right-wing is quite a deviation from the comics, who was as equally left-leaning as Oliver, albeit less vocal about it.
409* AntiHero: She's a flawed, misguided but well-intentioned heroine in her first appearance. In her later appearances, she's a genuine heroine.
410* BlondeRepublicanSexKitten: Pretty, capable, and ''hard'' right-wing.
411* BoyishShortHair: In a reverse of her comics self, she has short blonde hair as Black Canary and uses a dark haired wig in her civillian ID. In the last two seasons, her hair is longer making her better resemble her original comic counterpart.
412* DecompositeCharacter: Her love interest role to Oliver was sent to Chloe.
413* HellBentForLeather
414* HiredGuns: Initially contracted by Lex to hunt down Green Arrow.
415* LegacyCharacter: Confirmed by WordOfGod. Her mother Dinah Drake was Black Canary as part of the JSA.
416* MythologyGag: She's given a bit of ShipTease with Oliver early on, as a nod to their on-again/off-again relationship in the comics.
417* SecretIdentity: Dinah Lance, which she maintains via a long, brown-haired wig, over her short blonde hair.
418* SecretIdentityIdentity: Black Canary is very much her real identity.
419* StrawmanPolitical: Subverted. While her hard right-wing views are mocked by Chloe, Clark, and Oliver, the show never dissects them, thus making it impossible to prove her wrong in or out of series.

428The last survivor of the extinct Martian race, J'onn J'onnz was a former intergalactic police officer, tasked with pursuing PhantomZone criminals. A friend of Clark's biological father Jor-El, he was asked to watch over Kal-El after his arrival on Earth. First appearing in Season 6 as a guardian figure during Clark's battles with the Zoners, J'onn is [[DePower depowered]] in the Season 8 premiere "Odyssey" after saving Clark's life, and takes on the identity of police detective John Jones. He serves as Clark and Oliver's contact inside the Metropolis PD; eventually regaining his powers thanks to Doctor Fate, he now works with the ComicBook/{{Justice League|of America}} on an ongoing basis.
429----
430* AlliterativeName: '''J''''onn '''J''''onnz.
431* BadassBoast: "I'm Mars' last survivor. There's a reason for that."

He protects Gotham with help from Barbara Gordon, who operates as his partner Nightwing, but after she joins the Blue Lantern Corps she makes arrangements for Dick Grayson to replace her.
462----
463* AdaptationalLateAppearance: Played with as while it's not uncommon for Batman to have been operating in secret and then becoming more public around the time Superman debuts, here the Justice League and several other heroes had appeared by the time he makes his first official appearance when it's more common for him to be one of the team's founders.

484* TheCameo: Not him speifically but in the episode [[Recap/SmallvilleS01E06Hourglass Hourglass]], Cassandra's vision of Lex's future shows him standing on a field surrounded by the skeletons of people he has killed, with it possible to see a power ring in the background. While this doesn't necessarily mean it's John's power ring, it does suggest that Lex is fated to kill one of Earth's future Green Lanterns.

492The daughter of the world's greatest magician, Zatanna inherited his magical powers and uses them to fight magical threats.
493----
494* AlliterativeName: '''Z'''atanna '''Z'''atara.
495* DoubleStandardRapeSciFi: When she casts her spell on Clark in ''Warrior'' to make him kiss her, things were clearly heading in a more intimate direction and the only reason it stopped was because Clark's love for Lois made him snap out of it. Despite this clearly being a violation of Clark's trust and a case of a hero abusing their powers, he bears no ill towards Zatanna and in fact feel guilty when he tells Lois about the kiss.
496* HotWitch: Zatanna is a witch, and very attractive.
497* KissingUnderTheInfluence: Does it to Clark, although her intent isn't malicious.
498** Her wedding present for Clark and Lois also causes this for [[PairTheSmartOnes Tess and Emil]], and leads to Chloe and Oliver getting married.
499* LiteralGenie: Her spells grant the literal meaning of the wish, not the metaphorical one.
500* LovePotion: In ''Warrior'' she hypnotizes Clark into making out with her.
501* MagiciansAreWizards: Can perform both {{stage magic|ian}} and the real thing.
502* MythologyGag: Her presence in the show and as Clark's ally actually serves as a clever reference to how her father first appeared in ''Action Comics #1'' just like Superman.
503* ParentalAbandonment: Her dad is dead; we don't know about her mom.
504* UnresolvedSexualTension: Clearly has a slight crush on Clark, who appears to on some level reciprocate.
505* WhatTheHellHero: It doesn't occur on screen, but one has to think that she got one of these after "Fortune," given how absolutely horribly getting six people, one of whom has superpowers and all of whom are secretly a part of a vigilante organization, ridiculously drunk and then letting them loose among hundreds of people with no supervision could have gone.

517* {{Expy}}: This version of Booster Gold has quite a significant [[Film/MysteryMen Captain Amazing]] vibe.

However a conversation with Clark renews his faith in the spirit of Christmas and he appears at the end of the episode to prove he wasn't just a drunk man dressed as Sana Claus.
608----
609* MythologyGag: His appearance is likely one to the Christmas stories which showed Superman helping Santa save Christmas, with most of those stories ending with Superman acting in the place of the reindeer to fly the sleigh so Santa could deliver presents.
