Comic superhero Superman, the alter-ego of journalist Clark Kent, has previously been the basis for a television series Lois and Clark and numerous movies. In Smallville a story is told of Clark as a teenager, including relationship difficulties, family problems, and Clark's struggle to control his powers. Clark already has an interest in journalism, joining the school newspaper for a short time, and has a strong friendship with future villain Lex Luther.
Smallville also follows his struggle to find out about his past - a struggle that leads him into conflicts he would rather avoid, a struggle that leads to tragedy and a struggle that will lead him away from Smallville to begin his career as a journalist and superhero.
