Superman: The Last Family of Krypton #1

I'm excited to see this project out on the shelves... it's something I started least year and had to sit on for a long time. I am a huge fan of the DC Elseword books and am really happy to see one return. It seemed coming from reading mostly marvel and images books growing up they were a great entry into the DC universe. Here are a few of my favorite pages from this first book... there will be more. I've finished the 2nd and am about to start the 3rd... lots of work ahead of me.

Returning to a character he's long been associated with, legendary writer Cary Bates explores a different side to Superman's legend in an Elseworlds tale that hinges on the fact that while baby Kal-el has rocketed to the distant planet Earth from his doomed homeworld of Krypton, he was not alone. How does a world handle the emergence of the Last Family of Krypton as Jor-El, Lara and Kal-El make Earth their adopted home?
