Questions about Superman & Lois (mild spoilers)?
Just saw the pilot episode. I didn't think it was very good. But I was also a bit confused. For those following the news about the show, can you answer me some questions.
1) Is this set in the Arrowverse? Because it doesn't seem like it is. There's so many contradictions with Arrowverse continuity if there is.
2) If it is in the Arrowverse, is it in the future? Lois was going to Argo to give birth in Supergirl season 4, 2 years ago. Yet now she had teenage sons?
3) Why was he wearing the black-S supersuit at the beginning? I thought that was about Lois' death.
4) This General Lane knows who Superman is and is friendly? In Supergirl, General Lane didn't know and was hostile towards aliens. I thought that was who he was in the comics too. Which Lane is faithful to the comics?
5) Does Tyler Hoechlin have a clause in his contract that he must always be sporting stubble?
Okay, I added the last one just to get to 5 questions.

Yes it is set in the arrow verse, they've just used the crisis as an excuse to reboot some elements. Lois had her kids earlier and Sam Lane doesn't hate aliens anymore. There are comics where Sam knows superman's identity and works alongside him to save the world, but usually he is against aliens of any kind. I'm assuming he wore the black suit to signify his mom's death.
