Did anyone watch this Friday? If not, I would recommend it. No Lois this week and though I usually don't like non Lois appearance episodes, this one is definitely a keeper. Pam Grier was fantastic, creepy as ever. LOTS of Martian Manhunter action (including several instances of him using varying powers). I'm still not a fan of Tess Mercer being a Checkmate operative, but oh well. I'm also still not a fan of Chloe being referred to as "Watchtower" but again, oh well.

The first sequence was very well done. Very secret agent chase style.

Can I just watch this one or will I need to go back and watch the ones since the JSA episodes?

You can probably just watch this one. I think that the only two important gaps in plot were filled in during the JSA episode (Tess being an operative, MM getting his powers back). There's some Chloe/Ollie stuff ( :fart: ) you missed, but it's totally skippable (unless you're into it).

Yeah, there's a couple of dudes I wouldn't mind Chloe chumming with but Ollie ain't one of them (neither is Clark, for the record).

It's all good...except when it comes to incestuous-ish shipping, like Chloe and Clark. ;)

To me it is - too brotherly/sisterly a relationship. I totally get that there are many that disagree out there, but the vibe I get is the vibe I get, you know? The thought of them nauseates me.

So I guess you don't want this folder full of erotic Chloe/Clark fanart?
