Needless to say, Welling wasn’t impressed with the direction thatSmallvilletook in those last few years.

Of course, Welling was right when he noted thatSmallvilleneeded a change.

The original Man of Steel didn’t want his time with the younger Clark Kent to end.

However, some of Welling’s criticisms are fair.

After all,the Blur arc lasted a considerable amount of time and often repeated the same beat.

Again, this arcisnecessary forSmallville’s Clark Kent.
