Whitney's letter was Whitney Fordman's response to Lana Lang's video letter from Heat.

Comic Book[]

After Whitney receives the video letter describing where she stands in the relationship (she doesn't specify feeling anything for Clark, but states that her feelings have changed) he writes a letter in response to give his input on her decision. He dies in combat (as described in Visage) before he can give her the letter.

The Letter[]

The letter is shown briefly at the end of the story, with most of words shown in narration blocks.

The text of the letter is below;

Dear Lana,

I got your video. Your words were painful to hear, difficult to accept and completely honest. Problem was they were truths I didn't want to hear. In the midst of destruction and sorrow, I thought you were my lifeline to sanity.

You've spent a lot of your life feeling abandoned and lonely. Lately, I can sympathize. But strangely enough, it was you who reminded me, I'm not alone. By holding so tightly to you, I was closing myself off from those who need me the most.

I left Smallville to help, to make a difference. I'd never have made it this far without you, but you're right. It's time to let go. I'm needed elsewhere. We're in a tough spot, now. Our ride out of here never showed and we're on the run. But you're still helping boost morale.

I've lived a pretty selfish life. Thanks for helping me change. I'm glad you're searching for happiness.

I hope you find it.

Love Whitney.
