Gabe Sullivan is the father of Chloe Sullivan.
History
In the 1980's, Gabe Sullivan married Moira Sullivan. Together they had a daughter, in 1987.[1] Their marriage ended in divorce, after Moira was committed to a mental hospital, in 1995.[2]
In 2000, Gabe got a job as a LuthorCorp plant manager and moved to Smallville.[3]
In the fall of 2001, while Chloe's class was on a field trip to the plant, Gabe found himself in the middle of a hostage situation. Thanks to Lex Luthor and Clark Kent, Gabe, his daughter and everyone else made it out alive.[4] However, the problems that Gabe would face in Smallville had only begun.
A few months after the hostage situation, Chloe was kidnapped by Gary Watts.[3] Shortly afterwards, Lionel Luthor announced that the Smallville plant would be shut down. However, Gabe and some of the other plant employees teamed up with Lex and saved the plant, by starting LexCorp.[5][6]
In early 2004, Gabe found himself fired and blacklisted, because of the actions taken by his daughter.[7][8] A few months later, he was nearly killed, after Chloe's investigations into Lionel had revealed that he had killed his parents and both Gabe and Chloe had to be taken into protective custody by the FBI.[9]
However, Lex had arranged to get both Gabe and Chloe out of the safe house before it blew up. Gabe spent the next three months under the protection of Lex, until Chloe could testify at Lionel's trial.[10] Afterwards, Gabe and Chloe moved into a tiny apartment in Smallville.[11] It is unknown what happened to Gabe Sullivan after Chloe left for college in 2005. He was not present at his daughter's wedding to Henry James Olsen.[12]
