HELLO, Megan!
So, where's the upvote button again...

There's no one I'd rather be than me.

That's only a big reveal if you've not seen Young Justice. And if you haven't seen Young Justice you should go watch it now 'cause it's waaaaaaaaay better than this.

Anyone else find it a bit odd that they're using the Mon-El name instead of Val-Or or Lar Gand seeing as El is a Kryptonian family name? Or at least odd that Kara doesn't mention they have the same family name? Though it's possible El is the Jingleheimer-Schmitt of that system I suppose.

I was at least expecting a "Maybe we're cousins."  only to have kara look off to the side and mutter "No, my cousin is someone else."

I know nothing about Mon-El from the comics.  Either after my time, or only showed up in books I didn't read (like Superman).  I do remember that Daxamites first discovered their not so unique powers during the Invasion crossover event where the Dominion was introduced.  Only a couple episodes away from the Dominion crossover event, wonder if we'll see more Daxamites.

They have to get rid of Mon-El of course and I'm hoping they stick at least somewhat to comic continuity. I'm sacrificing animals every day (gummi bears if you must know) to the gods in hopes that we get a LSH story.  Two parter where the Legion comes to the past to get help (how many times did they do that in the comics?  Like every third Superboy issue it seemed) and at the end of part two Mon decides to stay with them.

And if those episodes prove popular maybe it could generate the LSH spinoff that has been proposed many times but never pushed through.

That's about what I figured would happen, especially since they still haven't paid off the Legion ring that showed up in Flash's glimpses of other earths. But then again before they revealed it was Mon-El I was assuming it was Kon-El since Cadmus showed up this season, so what do I know.

Or they could just go with the original story line -- he develops lead poisoning and has to be sent into the Phantom Zone.

They did a couple of Legion episodes in Smallville. I'd love to see the CW version of the Legion, or at least some of them.

Okay... Must say this ...

Spoiler for Hidden:
Why the heck did Alex assume that it would be perfectly save for M'Gan to give J'onn a blood transfusion? Even if she HAD been a Green Martian there's no reason to assume that Martians don't have different blood types like human beings.

Maybe they don't have different types. We don't know that either.

Did they do away with the weakness to lead that Daxamites have in the comics?

Well so far it looks like they altered and weakened it so that they just have no immunity to lead which means bullets can kill them.  But maybe it will slowly poison him until he has to be suspended for his own survival.

The DEO has magical knowledge of all aliens (like when Winn's info dumping about Whatever-ites)

Didn't she say something like, "He has a lead allergy"?  That could be a weakness.  He was certainly vulnerable to it, and the longer he had it in him the worse he seemed to get.  And he seemed to get better as soon as they got it out.  I think.  I might have been tired by the time I got to the end of the episode.

You saw it correctly, so maybe everyone else was tired :D

Ah, so the Daxamite lead allergy is very reduced in comparison to the comics.

(For those who don't read comics, even trace amounts of atmospheric lead will cause Daxamites to collapse and die just by breathing normal air on Earth)

I never got that. Its not like lead transmits deadly radiation or something. It just sits there.

Or like the GA Green Lantern. He could stop bullets, rockets, knives, etc, but you could kill him with a wooden toothpick.

Characters - especially cosmic ones - are always underpowered whenever the situation demands it - for example, Superman can fly all across the universe without taking thousands of years, so he can move many times faster than the speed of light - but if the story requires him to fight a power-armored Lex Luthor then he'll generally slug it out with him in a hand to hand brawl, even though he could move fast enough to strip Lex of his armor in a fraction of a nanosecond.
