SUPERMAN & LOIS Clip Reveals Comic-Accurate Doomsday From Last Night's Epic Penultimate Episode - SPOILERS

Doomsday returned in last night's episode of Superman & Lois, titled "To Live and Die Again," and an extended clip shows off this amazing comic-accurate take on the iconic comic book villain. Check it out!

In the penultimate episode of Superman & Lois, Lex Luthor's scheming paid off as Doomsday was unleashed on Smallville. Now transformed into the most comic-accurate version of the monster we've ever seen in live-action, there was no way for Lois Lane to talk it around this time. 

Superman, already weakened by his human heart, tried his best to stop the rampaging Doomsday but was whisked away by the creature before he could finish telling his family how much he loved them. 

As we head into next week's finale, it appears the Man of Steel could be about to die for a second time. 

For those of you looking to relive that action-packed battle - or if you're curious to see what Superman & Lois has done with Doomsday - an extended clip has been released which you can watch below (along with some 4K screenshots shared on X).

This Doomsday looks vastly better than what we saw in Smallville and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and aside from slightly better VFX, it's hard to imagine how this could ever be topped in a future adaptation. 

KryptonSite recently spoke to Superman & Lois writer/director Jai Jamison about "To Live and Die Again," and asked what it was like pitting the hero against Lex Luthor in this penultimate chapter. 

"This entire episode, there were so many moments that I was literally dancing around set," he admits. "Having the Superman versus Lex Luthor showdown in the penthouse was a moment. Being able to design Milton’s console system, with the idea that it would look like Brainiac, having the wires and everything that, when I saw what the set dec and art department had done to create that, I was blown away."

"I mean, Clark and the boys training together...the inspiration for that was me playing basketball with my dad. There were so many moments that were absolutely that childhood nerd dream come true, definitely starting with the Superman Lex Luthor showdown in the suit," Jamison added. "The full Lex...bald, shaven, suited up. It was amazing."

Superman & Lois was developed by Todd Helbing and Greg Berlanti for The CW network. The show stars Tyler Hoechlin as Clark Kent/Superman and Elizabeth Tulloch as Lois Lane.

It follows the iconic superhero couple as they navigate the challenges of parenthood while also dealing with the responsibilities and dangers that come with being Earth's greatest protector.

Superman & Lois airs every Monday night on The CW.

@billnye69 - Because the CW loves the source material. That's why Zack Snyder failed it.

I can't believe that Luthor will win the day, but how Supes and Co come out of this alive is beyond me to figure out. But yes, this is the type of good drama that the movies lack. Can't wait to see how this all plays out next week.

@PapaBear562 - I foresee Doomsday's heart going into Superman's body, restoring him to full power. Doomsday was Bizarro (mirror Superman) initially, so they're genetically matched. And we've seen Superman in the finale trailer fully healed with no cuts on his face. Then him and Lex will go at it, it will be a pretty even fight until Lex whips out the kryptonite .... only to find it has no effect on Superman. Because he has Bizarro's heart, he's absorbed some of his opposite powers, such as Kryptonite now makes him stronger rather than weaker.

Alternatively, Lex could stomp Superman and drag his dead ass back to Metropolis. Show Ends, Bye bye.

Man , he looks so good!!.

It’s even more impressive knowing the budget cuts they had to endure this year.

Definitely the best one so far in live action…

Anyway , it’s been a solid final season but I wish we got more.

The CGI looks very low budget and childish, and the visuals of Superman flying against Doomsday reminds me Superman II 'special effects

@Pakent - yeah, reminds of when doomsday chased rudolph around the north pole.

Ugh. I love this show so much, but I SERIOUSLY wish they hadn't chosen biker-gang Lex Luthor and Doomsday, the most boring villain ever created, to wrap up the series with.

It would have been far more interesting if they'd just stuck with Bizarro.

@TheFox - oh man , I like this version of Lex

That aesthetic for Lex makes more sense once you find out this version didn’t come from money

Also while he’s not the thinking 15 moves ahead genius , he’s still intelligent & cunning I feel.
TheFox
TheFox - 11/26/2024, 2:40 PM
@TheVisionary25 - I appreciate that you like this version, but honestly... I kinda think this is the worst Lex I've ever seen in any adaptation of the character. Yes, even worse than Jesse Eisenberg.

He's just a thug. He's a violent, charmless, witless thug whose only advantage over Superman up to this point is that he somehow managed to tame Doomsday without the creature just ripping him in half immediately. He's a terrible businessman; his hitman is an inept, bumbling fool; and he couldn't even beat a powerless Clark Kent in a fistfight (despite how hard the show's been pitching him as a grizzled tough guy).

It's just not working for me.

@TheFox - to each their own

I know hes been kinda divisive because of the lack of charm & such so oh well.

Why do they ALWAYS skip the green pants and the hair? I'll never understand it.

I don't watch this show, is there a story reason for the backwards logo on his chest?
TheVisionary25
TheVisionary25 - 11/26/2024, 12:50 PM
@SATW42 - this version is a mutated Bizarro

SATW42 - 11/26/2024, 1:07 PM
@TheVisionary25 - they always gotta mess with it lol.

Maybe Gunn down the line will just give us the scary mindless monster that Doomsday was supposed to be. It seems like only Krytpon gave him the multiple deaths that made him stronger, but they had to humanize him by giving him a wife and he volunteered to do the experiment as opposed to it supposed to be essentially a feral animal because it was cloned and continually killed as a baby that was made in lab. It's entire life is nothing but pain and suffering and never ending death cycles.

There should be no humanzing Doomsday, and he certainly shouldn't be a creation of Lex's

TheVisionary25
TheVisionary25 - 11/26/2024, 1:16 PM
@SATW42 - fair enough

He’s had so many different backstories like in the DCAU , he was a mutated clone of Superman that could speak made by Cadmus so I don’t mind.
SATW42
SATW42 - 11/26/2024, 1:20 PM
@TheVisionary25 - I get it, I just want to see the orginal Doomsday, the feral monster whose only ties to Superman is that he was made in a lab on Krypton ages before there even was a superman.

No clones of superman, no "well lex made him" in a machine, no real backstory or anyone to care about, just give me the damn animal and give him his pants and hair lol
TheVisionary25
TheVisionary25 - 11/26/2024, 1:27 PM
@SATW42 - that’s fair haha

Also in this , he has the multiple deaths that make him stronger conceit too

Small improvement take away fly and heat vision and s on chest he be perfect
LilJimmy

My guess......

Doomsday kills Superman again. But thanks to the serum in Sam's heart, Superman comes back to life stronger than Doomsday. He flies Doomsday to the sun, which weakens Doomsday enough to calm him down. Knowing he cant go home, and he will never be Bizarro Kal ever again, he rips his own heart out and dies.

Superman goes to the fortress only to find out the heart cannot be transplanted. Accepting his fate, he re-engages Lex and uses sheer will to finally defeat him.

Amanda takes over Lexcorp. Bruno has Lex killed in prison. Clark and Lois grow old together. Jordan uses his abilities to becomes a world-renowned therapist. Jonathan's powers grow and he becomes the next Superman.

The End.

@JobinJ - Only thing it lacks are, what? The small strands of white hair and green shorts? Technicalities like that are very forgettable. The placement of those spikey bones around his shoulders, above his eyebrows and then around his face are more trademark than the rest.
