Fourteen years ago, a meteor shower burst from the heavens, raining destruction on the unsuspecting citizens of SMALLVILLE, Kansas. The intervening years have left the towns inhabitants with scars and secrets. In Season Five, CLARK KENT (Tom Welling) finally begins to accept his destiny and takes giant leaps towards becoming the Man of Steel. "We call this season SUPERMAN in Training," series co-creator Alfred Gough says. "Clark is going to accept his destiny."

During this exciting pivotal season: Clark faces rogue KRYPTONIANS. LEX LUTHOR (Michael Rosenbaum) launches a vicious political campaign. The FORTRESS OF SOLITUDE rises. Clark's love for LANA LANG (Kristin Kreuk) deepens, while he and LOIS LANE (Erica Durance) remain friendly adversaries. A spaceship mystery unfolds, and a dark tragedy - one even Clark's powers can't prevent - strikes. As the mystery and intrigue of the season deepens, various elements of SUPERMAN lore fall into place.

Warner Home Video HD offers resolution six times higher than standard definition DVDs, as well as extraordinarily vibrant contrast and color and beautifully crisp sound. The new format also provide a higher level of interactivity, with instant access to extra features via a seamless menu-bar where viewers can enjoy features without leaving or interrupting the film.
