This is the first time I've been able to watch an episode of maws as it airs so here's my take on S2E6!
• Clark is actually being mean and sassy and I love him for it like yes bby please wake up in a better mood next time you were kidnapped not murdered
• I didn't realize in the preview clip that aired a few days ago but Kara's eyes grey out even when she says "model citizen" at the beginning of the episode!
• the look when Clark sees Lois : (( the poor boy didn't even have time to process the breakup before he got knocked out and thrown into space but also she was the first thing he thought of when Kara asked if anyone cared for the real him :((((
• Clark says ow when he fights with Kara over the Polaroid! It's so natural that it took me a second to realize that he probably doesn't normally feel pain from playful roughhousing??
• the fact that Clark immediately clocks Kara the way Jimmy clocked him and Lois. The little shimmer in his eye when he asks if she likes him
• "what, no, what? I don't even know what that means. Stop being all weird with your stupid earth brain" this whole sequence makes me REALLY REALLY look forward to a post-brainiac maws where Clark and Kara can just be cousins in metropolis together (which I fully believe the maws crew will make happen)
• Cousin snowball fight I cryyy
• For a second I almost believed we were actually going to see space traveling and new planets but makes sense
• ok it's been lowkey before this episode but is Clark actually kryptonian super saiyan I don't know the lore
• Kara actually did genocide while brainwashed oh no
• I'm sorry I'm sorry WHAT Jimmy and Lois both 1. Found MM and the brain from the OTHER DIMENSION they traveled to and 2. WENT INTO SPACE TO FIND CLARK my joy is unending I love this show
• Clark is actually going to be used as a weapon nooo poor boy just wants to help I can't handle a world where the maws version of Clark Kent is a murderer :((((
Final thoughts, love! The maws crew is already doing such a good job of making Clark and Kara feel like cousins and I'm so happy she's in the show even though I was honestly hesitant about it at first. The next episode is called Olsen's eleven and once again I am. My joy is immeasurable. I love this show. I love that we get to experience it every week instead of all at once because now I get to comb through all the small animation details while I waitt!!! I'm just sad there were no phones in this episode because HOW will I know if it's still Monday may 9th now???

I guess I got caught up in the ending, but million dollar question:
Did Lois and Clark (no not Lewis and Clark) actually break-up?!

There's always been a tension between the different portrayals of Krypton. Sometimes, it's an enlightened society of crystal spires and togas. Sometimes, it's a militaristic society of warmongering fascists.
When asked to pick one, My Adventures with Superman said "yes."
Because that's how empires work. Those crystal spires are built on the bones of the exploited.

one thing about brainiac, is if he is going to be putting himself in another man's body, he is going to be getting their tits OUT

Why is it that Lex looks like he's ready to begin a new phase of his evil plan but Slade looks like he's moving into his dream house with his husband

If you asked me what my favourite Clark X Lois moment is in the whole show, it would be this scene. Because it perfectly demonstrates why their relationship is so damn healthy.
You really gotta love how when Lois mentions the chance to work in Gotham, Clark doesn't question her judgment or try to do anything to prevent her from going; he immediately offers ways that he can help her out with Gotham City. HECK, HE WAS DOING IT BEFORE THEY EVEN GOT TO TALK ABOUT IT AGAIN!
Even if what Clark said and did was rooted in a mistaken assumption about her intentions, what ultimately matters is that his actions were rooted in a genuine desire to support Lois while showing the utmost respect and consideration for the needs (AND THE AGENCY) of the person he loves, which is what Lois has been doing just as well as he has.
No wonder people say this is the best version of Superman and Lois.
