About the Author

Karl Kesel is one of the most successful artists to come out of DC's New Talent program, and counts Jack Kirby as a major influence on his work--while having a fondness for Kirby's quirky character creations. Kesel built a solid reputation as a respected inker on such titles as Superman and Suicide Squad, in addition to his efforts as a writer on Harley Quinn, Adventures of Superman, and Superboy.

The Sun-Eater, an interstellar entity that consumes stars and all sentient life within its path, has come to Earth. As the sun goes dark, the Justice League must quell the planetwide rioting and fight to preserve life where they can. Heroes and villains alike must band together to destroy the Sun-Eater, but does any one person have the will to reignite the sun?

Karl Kesel (Harley Quinn), Stuart Immonen (Plunge), José Marzán Jr. (Y: The Last Man), and a host of comics' top talents weave the story of Earth's final night!
