Ooohh! This is at once chilling and lovely. It's really interesting to see Lex without a soul and not really getting what he's missing. And the whole selling-the-soul bit reminds me of when Neron offered to bring Jason back in exchange for Bruce's soul. Heh, it makes me smile seeing Lex thinking Kon was worth it (and now I'm again angry at Bruce for never thinking Jason is, grrrr). And Kyle! It's so rare to see Kyle used in Smallville/DC crossovers, and it makes me very happy since he's my favorite! :) Can't wait to read more!
