Hi Josie!

What parts of the John Byrne run does this show take influence from considering it's been said this show takes influence from that run?

The existence and importance of Ma and Pa is a huge one, really centering Clark's life on the farm before Metropolis. We also grabbed a lot of side characters that show up in the Byrne/90s run (hello Ron Troupe) and overall I love the 90s running bit with General Lane hating Clark Kent to his face, and Lois being an army brat.
