He moons over an unrequited crush and battles villains who are really externalizations of teen emotions and self-discovery, as on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Part of the charm of Welling's Clark and Tobey Maguire's Peter, in fact, is that they have a little bit of the feminine in them: they've learned from Buffy and pop culture's other fatal femmes, who make fighting evil just another aspect of the really tough job of growing...
