That was one of the keys to the shows success I think it was able to have fans enjoy it even if you have never read any Superman or DC Comics Comic Books. An one of my favorite characters of the show that wasn't from the Superman Comics or any DC Comics was Tess Mercer. Mind you its just me but I actual view Tess Mercer of more as better view of Morgana then Lex Luthor. An also Smallville also has its own DC Comics Book Series now Smallville: Season 11.
