In the final chapter of the Book of El, Starchild and Red Son are reunited with the surviving heads of the House of El to save existence from a man driven beyond madness—to godhood—by grief. If Superman lives up to the legends, he’ll find a way to save the universe from Kryl-Ux and save Kryl-Ux from himself. The heartrending, inspiring conclusion of Phillip Kennedy Johnson’s vision for Kal-El.

    I will say that the storylines of the twins, from first appearance as scrappy kids in the arena to loving children and heroes. really sang to me. I am going to miss them. Read Full Review

    Wow great end, a bit anti-climatic with the defeat of Kryl-ux but that is PKJ fault for over complicating the story imo. Nonetheless I'm happy that the Supertwins got a good ending to be with Superman and then go off on adventures with Phyrros and older Kara.

    I love this premise and hope PKJ one day makes a solo series focused on the super twins with the style of his Action Comics run. Hey PKJ, if you do a Super Twins comic, please have Eddy Barrows work with you again...
