Chloe Sullivan - Theories & Spoilers

[SrsBsns]

So, lately there's been a lot of posting about what may happen to Chloe. I figured we could use a thread all about how we would personally wrap up the story of Chloe.

Here's an interesting theory I read on the Kryptonsite forums...

Someone probably already posted that, but in the Comics, 'Charade' and 'Sacrifice' are arc's deeply linked with Maxwell Lord. In 'Sacrifice', Wonder Woman kills Max to free Superman from his mind control.

I don't think that it is a coincidence that we have Max Lord coming in a episode called 'Charade', and the following episode is called 'Sacrifice'. I mean, the second half of Absolute Justice was called Legends, which, if I am not mistaken, is the name of the Comic's Arc that introduces Amanda Waller.

Now, in the Comics, the aftermath of Sacrifice has both Batman and Superman criticizing Wonder Woman from killing Max Lord, and Diana being expelled from the Justice League. We know SV is not allowed to have Diana, and if they were, one of the things that made this arc so tragic, was exactly the close relationship that Wonder Woman always had with both Batman and Superman. Everything, in this arc, torns them apart. They both are unable to understand Diana's motivations, Batman is unable to forgive Superman for beating him up, when he was under the control of Max Lord, and Superman is unable to forgive himself.

We have 3 players with close friendship: Chloe, Clark and Oliver. Clark is Superman, Oliver is the Batman figure in Smallville, and Chloe could be Wonder Woman in this scenario. We know that Chloe believes the ends justifys the means. I personally believe that Oliver, now, would never take a human's life again. Everything he went through taught him this is a line that shouldn't be crossed. I can see Chloe making that choice, and I can see the impacts this will have on their friendship.

Maybe I am way off with this speculation, but those titles can't be a coincidence, IMO.


So what do you all think will happen to her? Another poster at K-site said that Allison Mack has always planned to leave after season nine. Any truth to that?

so Chloe kills Max Lord and is expelled from Watchtower duties? I wouldn't be opposed to that happening...

That is an interesting theory. They have been building on Chloe's "by any means necessary" perspective this season, so taking her to the point of offing a villain for the greater good (though it wouldn't be the first time) seems quite logical for this season.

Say she is ousted from the League after killing Lord... she could spend the remainder of this season and a significant portion of the next working independently, trying to redeem herself, ultimately making some sort of sacrifice, for the greater good, that either kills her or leaves her crazy in the head.

As much as I really dont want to see Smallville giving Chloe a grand death or anything I just want to see her gone. So if by some reason she dies or just leaves I'm for any scenario they make up.

However I dont want her death to be the reason Clark puts the Superman suit on. Or finally takes to the air. Smallville has made her character WAY TO IMPORTANT ever since she learned Clark's secret and I'm getting tired of it. They need to stop. She's annoying, serves no real purpose to the rest of the mythos of Superman. Just off her and be done with it. In my opinion the sooner we get rid of her the better the show will be.

 

[Webhead2006]

well for me personally i hope they dont kill max to soon. i would want to see him and waller be major players in a possible 10th season. As for chloe herself, i could see her at series end either just want to get away from all the crazy hero stuff and try to have some normal life somewhere else in peace and quiet and all that. Or i could see her being forced to or willing to work for checkmate/sucide squad. If forced she is taken away by them and if allison is gone for tenth season that could be a plot they could play with her gone and the jl is trying to get her back. Plus leaves it open for her to guest spot once or twice. Or if she is willing to go and also does leave she could be a mole in checkmate and sending messages to the jl to have them stop checkmate actions and all that. What ever happens and if allison does decide to leave i dont want to see her killed off. That is such a cliche thing in smallville and no reason to have her bumped off.

Agreed 100%

I want this to happen (repeated x 100)

Allison made an offhand comment how she is looking forward to doing stuff after the show ends last year, people assume that means she is leaving. Allison also made similar type comments in S7 when her contract was going to run out. Saying you are looking forward to moving on and actually doing it when you giving up a steady paycheck are 2 different things

As for Chloe, I just hope they give her a happy ending and she doesn't die or sacrfice herself for Clark some way.

 

[John Locke]

I hope the last scene of this season is Clark and Chloe having a regular conversation. Then out of nowhere Chloe gets stabbed in the back. Chloe falls down and dies. Lex is holding the knife, "Didn't you miss me?"

 

[COMPO]

how would she be ousted though, Oliver has a kind of by any mean necessary point of view and from last season so do most of the team except Clark.

 

[Webhead2006]

personally i am sick of all the folks who have been killed off in the show. they could easily make a good story on the character just up and leaving.

 

[Doc Ock]

I do not want Chloe to leave or be killed off, in fact It would be sweet to see her become the next Dr. Fate for a while.

LOL holy **** dude, that's a little intense. But I admit...I would give a big "**** YEAH!" if that happened...

 

[Ugfugly]

How about just retiring? I love Chloe. Don't want her killed or anything.

 

[Artistsean]

Does her character on the show seem more like Lana Lang from the comics to anyone?

 

[Webhead2006]

I wouldn't know myself.

 

[Indy Flash]

her and ollie get married and be come a husband and wife tag team ollie on the streets
and chloe on the computer.

Chloe is like some frankenstein creation who takes alot of stuff from a bunch of different comic characters(Lana, Lois, Jimmy, Pete, The Kents, Perry, Lucy)

 

[Nave 'Torment']

Kill her off? Are you mad? No, no, definitely NO! If this were season 3 I would've agreed, but Chloe does not need to die. Hell, she's integrated into the comics right? Keep her alive! Just outside Metropolis - being part of the larger DC Universe. I like her that way. A crusader all her own, chronicling the rise of the super-hero. Her destiny isn't to observe, its to know. If she's Smallville's version of Oracle, then keep her that way.

... that... as harsh and cold as it is... just might happen (though a lot more subtly).

 

[Webhead2006]

ya no need for her to be killed off in the show, now that they put the character into the comics and all. Personally i think she will just leave and go on her own and do her own thing. Or move away and get out of the hero/hacking work to try and have a normal life.

 

[Nave 'Torment']

OR... give a nod to BIRDS OF PREY and give her Oracle's role. We already have Dinah as the Black Canary, now we only need a Huntress. I'm quasi-serious.

that sounds like a good spinoff.

 

[TwilightPro101]

I'm in the camp of just letting her leave the show.

 

[Nave 'Torment']

Another Birds of Prey TV series spinning-off from Smallville? Like this right?

with supporting characters and/or guest stars:

Who knows, maybe Oliver could be the equivalent to Nightwing from the comics, and Kara, obviously, the Power Girl equivalent.

Think a show like that could stand on its own for long?

 

[Nave 'Torment']

Now that I think of it, it'd be a better fanfiction than an actualized TV series
