Season Three[]
Nathan worked Walt Masterson to rob a jewelry store that Clark was shopping at. As he entered the building he used his sonic scream ability to shatter the glass and detain the civilians in the store, including Clark. Walt walked in and Clark used his heat vision however some of it was reflected into his eyes by a set of Green Kryptonite earrings that were launched during the attack and he was inadvertently blinded. Masterson was detained and Nathan escaped. Nathan later on kidnapped Pete Ross and threatened to kill him if his mother, Judge Abigail Ross did not grant the motion to dismiss all charges against him.
Clark found out using his newly acquired power, super hearing, and stopped him. However Walt waved a blow torch infront of his eyes, only to cause Clark to regain his vision after his attack destroyed the Green Kryptonite in the scar tissue that was preventing Clark's eyes from healing. He soon fought Clark later on and used his Supersonic sound ability, only have a pile of cars falling over him in the junkyard. He was found unconscious by law enforcement.
Notes[]
- While he is seemingly crushed in Whisper, a Smallville Ledger article establishes that he was merely knocked unconscious, and is still alive.
- Nathan Dean briefly appears at Smallville High School. However, the same Smallville Ledger article identifies Nathan as an 18-years-old, with no reference to him being a student at the school, meaning that he was likely just there to spy on Pete. In the episode, Nathan is a total stranger to Clark Kent, further indicating that he is not a Smallville High student.
