I was watching "Smallville" the other day, and it got me wondering about the history of the ret-con universe. On the show, the JSA operated in secret until they were driven completely underground. I wonder, do we have any ideas weather or not there might have been meta-gene activations before the current crop? Maybe some historical/mythological characters were early metas. And maybe, just maybe some of them are still around.... something to think about, yes?

After all, Lex Luthor knew about the metagene, isolated it, discovered an activation factor, and applied it to several of his employees before Jade appeared on the scene and publicly announced the existence of it. Even the US government was apparently unaware until Jade showed up, if I recall Dream's story correctly.
Of course, if Lex knew about them, it's entirely possible a covert branch of the US government did know about them - who knows, in the retcon universe the creator / writers of The X Files may have known something the rest of humanity didn't...

The absolutely astonishing thing about this?
...as brilliant as Lex Luthor is, in certain permutations in different scenarios and story arches? Lex still hasn't come up with a way to treat his baldness?

Actually, he's tried several times, and IIRC, they all failed because he's bald due to dead hair follicles. They simply don't exist or are capable of growing hair. IIRC it's body-wide.

It's a valid thought, Dorothy. One that will be addressed in a two stories that will be released in the future.
