After the panel and autograph signing for Smallville at the Comic Con International in San Diego, attending cast and crew members answered some questions for the press about what to expect from the coming season. Someone asked about the possibility of new powers developing for Clark Kent during the show’s fourth season, and here’s what Supervising Producer Jeph Loeb had to say:

"The very interesting thing is that because there’s so little known about these years, [there’s] the idea that Clark may have manifested powers that he does not keep or forgot. There may be things that he can do in the show, that he will not be able to do later on."
