• Took a Level in Badass: After draining Brainiac's hard drive, he's able to take on Clark and Raya at once.

Aldar (Dave Batista)

"Everyone's gotta eat!"

• Eyes of Gold: Or at least sickly yellow.
• Giant Mook: Towers over Clark, who is far from short.
• Horror Hunger: Given how often he talks about how hungry he is and how much he seems to have to eat, this seems likely.
• Human Aliens: Unlike the other Zoners, he isn't possessing anybody.
  "I'm no Phantom."
• I'm a Humanitarian: And he only eats the bones.
• Killed Off for Real: By the Martian Manhunter.
• Mighty Glacier: He's far from quick or agile, but he's so bloody strong, it just doesn't matter.
• Nigh Invulnerability: Implied, though not really demonstrated. His strength is what gets emphasized the most.
• Serial Killer: Hunts and devours people down by the docks.
• Super Strength: To the point where he easily manhandles Clark both times they fight.
• Wrestler in All of Us: Then again, look at his actor.

Dr. Hudson (Matthew Walker)

• Evil Old Folks
• Grand Theft Me: Attempts this with Clark.

• Nigh Invulnerability
• Proud Warrior Race Guy
• Super Soldier: Said to have been enhanced for combat.
• Super Strength
• Tattooed Crook
• Worthy Opponent: Constantly seeks them out; finds one in Clark.
• Wrestler in All of Us: Which should come as no surprise given who plays him.

Bizarro (Tom Welling)

"I'm you, only a little more bizarre."

The last and most dangerous of the Phantom Zone escapees, he uses a cloned body of Clark as his host. A serious recurring problem in Season 7.

---

• Achilles Heel: Sunlight and Blue Kryptonite.
• Body Surf: Before cloning Clark.
• Cloning Blues
• Demonic Possession: Before creating his cloned body of Clark, he had to hop from person to person, wearing each body out as he went.
  • A priest tried to exorcise him from a girl's father, believing it was an actual demon.
• Energy Absorption: Absorbs Green Kryptonite and renders it harmless. This makes it rather difficult for him when he wants to take on Clark.
• Even Evil Has Standards: Just watch his interactions with Brainiac.
• Evil Sounds Deep: At least when compared to Clark.
• Evil Twin: To Clark.
• Flying Brick
• Freak Lab Accident
• Glamour Failure
• Gone Horribly Wrong: He was an experiment on Krypton.
• Kryptonite Factor: Blue Kryptonite (which de-powers Kryptonians) increases his own power exponentially. Unfortunately, as Brainiac puts it, it's the equivalent of using a nuclear power plant to run a light bulb, creating a power overload he cannot survive.
• The Nth Doctor
• Phlebotinum Rebel
• Recurring Character: In Season 7.
• Sealed Evil in a Can
• Unwitting Pawn: Of Brainiac.
• Villainous Crush: On Lana. She reciprocates. Surprisingly, it actually improves his disposition instead of making him worse.
• Voice of the Legion
• Weaksauce Weakness: Direct sunlight not only causes Glamour Failure, but badly weakens him.
