Superman & Lois S3 E12 Speculation: Lex Luthor Returns

After the bombastic mid-season finale, Superman & Lois will return next week for the penultimate episode of season 3. 

The episode, titled “Injustice,” will feature the return of Superman’s arch-enemy Lex Luthor, who will unleash his master plan to destroy the Man of Steel and his family. 

Meanwhile, Clark and Lois will have to deal with family issues, as their son Jordan has been careless about using his superpowers in public, and their friend Kyle is acting strangely at the firehouse. 

What will happen in this epic episode? Here are our predictions for Superman and Lois season 3, episode 12. Without further ado, let’s get Sherlocking!

1. Season 3, Episode 12 Synopsis/Speculation

One of the main conflicts in the episode will be between Clark and Lois, and their son Jordan, who has been careless about using his superpowers in public. 

Clark and Lois will try to teach him a lesson about being discreet and responsible, but Jordan might not appreciate their interference or their rules. He might rebel or resent them for being too strict or controlling. 

Will Jordan learn from his mistakes, or will he endanger himself and his family?

Meanwhile, Jonathan will notice that something is off with Kyle, who is acting weird and secretive at the firehouse. Jonathan will try to discover what is happening, and he might uncover a shocking truth: Kyle is involved with Lex Luthor or Intergang, or he is under some mind control or influence. 

Jonathan must decide whether to confront Kyle or tell someone else about his discovery. Will Jonathan be able to help Kyle, or will he make things worse?

The biggest game-changer in the episode will be the release of Lex Luthor from prison after serving his sentence for the murder of Boss Moxie, which he was framed for by Bruno Mannheim. 

Lex Luthor will swear revenge on Superman, Lois, and Mannheim, and he will reveal his master plan to destroy them all. He might have a secret weapon or a trap for Superman or try to manipulate or recruit someone close to him. 

Lex Luthor is Superman’s arch-enemy, and he will stop at nothing to get what he wants. How will Superman deal with Lex Luthor’s schemes and threats?

Superman will also have to face Mannheim and his Intergang, who are causing chaos and crime in Metropolis and Smallville. Superman must balance his duty as a hero with his role as a father and husband. 

He will have to protect his city and family from harm, but he might also have to make tough choices or sacrifices. How will Superman cope with the pressure and the challenges?

Lois will also have her own problems to deal with, as she will try to expose Lex Luthor’s corruption and evil plans, but she will face opposition and danger from his allies and enemies. 

Finally, we have Bizarro Superman, who was introduced in the previous episode. How will he destroy Smallville and Superman? 

Will he team up with Lex Luthor and put our favorite Kent in dire straits? That seems like a spicy proposition, indeed!

These are my predictions for Superman and Lois season 3, episode 12. We expect the episode to be an exciting and emotional roller coaster that will keep us on the edge of our seats.
