So we finally learn what the Bad Future is like. And it's basically what you'd expect: the Planet building is in ruins; the good guys are either in internment camps or La Resistance; and Zod rules with an iron fist. There was an awesome shot of Clark's Blur top in rags on a flagpole, looking not dissimilar to this.

The idea that the Kandorians now get superpowers under a red sun is an interesting one (and is possibly intended as a reference to a non-Kryptonian incarnation of Zod from the comics). Although ... if Kryptonian science can do that, why not use it to give people superpowers on Krypton?

And it's kind of weird that the writers tie themselves in knots preventing Lois from getting any more clues as to Clark's duel identity (she never even learns there's a connection between the Kandorians and the Blur), when they're going to wipe her mind of the whole thing anyway.
