In this episode we are introduced to some of the other main characters that we will be seeing during the seasons to come.
In Clark's first day at work, we meet Jimmy Olsen, a shy but talented photographer whose abilities in the Daily Planet are still not very appreciated and actually has to work as a "copy boy" . We meet Clark's boss Perry White who has a lot of faith in him, and foremost, we meet Lois Lane, a photographer who does not seem to like Clark much despite of his qualities, and that we all know to be have been his main love interest in previous versions of the story.
A little later in the story we get to meet Lex Luthor, Superman's most famous villain, and that in this version is a business man of dubious ethics and bad reputation who also happens to have been Lois Lane's boyfriend. I also believe that this was the version of Luthor in which Alfred Gough and Miles Millar were inspired the most when they created their own version of the character for the Smallville live action TV series, as he is mostly depicted as a merciless corrupt businessman instead of a kind scientist gone evil, mad, or evil and mad(!) of other versions.
Something that happened before in the episode but I decided to tell last is the first public apparition of Superman (still without that name at the moment) saving a girl from falling from a high skyscraper and described by the girl as a big blue angel with red wings, which was a great start for the character in my opinion.
Thanks for reading.
