Hello, I'm the nominator of the rejected DCU (Comics) nomination. I know that Clark/Lex is a very popular ship (because of Smallville), but the almost entirety of the fics written is about the Smallville version, and I was hoping to request the comic version instead, because it is very rare, unrelated to the more popular canon, and the characters and their background are different from their Smallville versions. This also summarize essentially why I thought to nominate it here: a rare ship exchange seems the right place. :p
If you add the fandom tag to the search engine, it gives you '48' as number of stories. But they are actually waaay less, since quite a few of them borrow background information and characterization of the most popular version. Here's the link to the filtered results:
