John was a Smallville High School student, who was in the same graduating class as Clark Kent.
Season Ten[]
When Lois Lane and Clark arrived for a homecoming event, at Smallville High, in 2010 (a five year reunion for the class of 2005), a name tag with John's name was unclaimed and lying on a table together with name tags of other alumni who had not arrived. It is unknown if John arrived later, or if she skipped the homecoming event.
Notes[]
- Another name tag partly covers the one with John's name on it, leaving his last name unknown.
Appearances[]
- Season Ten: Homecoming (Mentioned only)

Johnny Webber as he appears in the comics.
Superboy Vol 2 #42 (June, 1983) introduces a Smallville High student named Johnny Webber. Unlike Johnny Carson, Johnny Webber was a recurring character. In his first appearance, Johnny Webber acquires metahuman abilities after exposure to a meteor shower containing Red Kryptonite and unknown element. He becomes the supervillain Dyna-Mind, but eventually looses his powers and reforms. His powers briefly returns in Superboy (Volume 2) #49 (January, 1984), but Johnny uses them up to help Superboy and John Zatara against an interdimensional barbarian. As an adult, Johnny Webber becomes vice president of a bank in Smallville, and is reunited with Clark Kent for a Smallville High reunion in Superman #403 (January, 1985).
