Smallville’s Ton Welling returns as Clark Kent/ Superman for “Crisis of Infinite Earths”

Fans of The CW’s hit Superman prequel series “Smallville” are going to be singing those lyrics from the theme “Save Me” by Remy Zero, as Deadline confirms that actor Tom Welling is reprising his role as Clark Kent/ Superman for the Arrowverse crossover “Crisis on Infinite Earths” - which will feature Stephen Amell/ Oliver Queen, Grant Gustin/ Barry Allen, Melissa Benoist/ Kara Zor-El, and the rest of the heroes in a quest to save the multiverse as well as meeting other alternate reality counterparts, heroes, and villains.

The crossover, beginning this fall season, will be the first time Welling will be reprising his role - answering the big question what happened to Clark Kent after the series finale of Smallville. “Crisis on Infinite Earths” - based in the same crossover event by DC Comics from the 1980’s, will be a five episode arc spanning Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, Legends of Tomorrow, and Batwoman.

Smallville returns for 11th Season... In Novel form.

Those of you lucky enough (or unlucky depending on your expectations) to see the final episode and season of Smallville saw Tom Welling "complete the circle" and don the familiar red, blue, and yellow tights that signify his transformation into Superman. While we all thought that was done and put to rest, apparently the adventure will still continue... But NOT in television that is.

Coming from a report at Bleeding Cool and Comic Book Movie, it appears that a new novel is being prepped and dubbed as "the 11th season" for Smallville, picking up where the series was supposed to have ended, where (SPOILER) Chloe Sullivan tells the story of Superman to her son, and Clark races to the rooftop of the Daily Planet and prepares to save the day. It's a similar move done by Buffy The Vampire Slayer (in which continued with Season 8 and 9 in comic book form), and well-known Batgirl and DC Relaunch writer Bryan Q. Miller is set to handle the novel duties, and it will be part of continuity. How the further adventures of Clark Kent, Lois Lane, Oliver Queen, and Chloe Sullivan goes is anybody's guess, but it's safe to say that fans of the show will be picking this one up when it comes out.

No official announcement for the Smallville 11th Season Novel has arrived, but stay tuned for updates soon.

The CW releases a new Smallville Final Season poster!

Look... It's Superman?

I haven't been watching Smallville lately, but I used to enjoy the "off continuity" spin-offs they'd play on a young Clark Kent's life. Add to the fact that it made Tom Welling, Kirsten Kreuk, and Michael Rosenbaum household and popculture names in the the entertainment industry, and you have one popular show that tells a different side of the epic Superman Mythology.

Since the time Kirsten's Lana Lang and Mr. Rosenbaum's Lex Luthor left the show, it's been pretty much left to Tom's Clark Kent and the rest of the remaining Smallville team to carry the torch and breath more life to it. Since I haven't been keeping up with the show, I've been at a loss at what's going on except for the fact that Clark's more aware with his Kryptonian lineage than ever before and he's now based in Metropolis (it WAS inevitable). Now, a new pic has surfaced in the web showing Clark Kent step up to the role he was destined to take anyway. Starting sometime in Season 9, say hello to his "alter ego":



Tom Welling as "Superman". Hmm... I don't know what to think. Looks a little too Matrix-y and out of place. I don't know if this will click with the hardcore Superman fanbase, but one thing's for sure... the show better explain why the red, yellow, and blue tights was vetoed over this get up.
