    A bit of a long read e-pill, but it's explained better here.

    Smallville

    In Smallville, the voice of Jor-El is played by Terence Stamp. This, combined with the apparent difference in character from other versions of Jor-El, led to some fan-speculation that this was really Zod. Series creators Miles Millar and Alfred Gough denied this rumour, and it was later revealed that Jor-El's characterization was misinterpreted. Recent portrayals of the character are somewhat closer to his normal characterization. In the series' fifth season, Zod has been featured as an off-screen presence. The episode "Arrival" featured two Kryptonians, disciples of Zod, on Earth searching for Clark. In the episode "Solitude", the Kryptonian artificial intelligence Brainiac masquerading as "Professor Milton Fine" convinces Clark to take him to the Fortress of Solitude, where he attempts to free Zod from the Phantom Zone. Fine temporarily opens a vortex in which the image of a figure similar to Terence Stamp's Zod can be glimpsed. "Solitude" also insinuated that Zod was a fascist leader on Krypton that ruled with an iron fist. He apparently considered Jor-El as his primary nemesis and is thought to be the reason for Krypton's explosion. The episode "Oracle" ends with Clark reading a kryptonian message that says "Zod is coming", followed by a "To Be Continued" screen. In the season finale "Vessel", Zod has been freed and uses the body of Lex Luthor as his vessel on Earth. Lex/Zod then traps Clark inside the Phantom Zone leaving no one to stop him and begins his plans to conquer Earth as the trapped Clark is sent flying into space. The episode ends leaving viewers in a state of shock with "To be continued".

      I'll come back and read this after, since I'm watching the season finale later today.
