Publisher’s description

Writer Mark Schultz is joined by penciller Doug Mahnke as Superman says a last good-bye to his life as Clark Kent. Superman joins Lois and Ma and Pa Kent on the family farm in Smallville for a final family dinner before he closes the book on his Clark Kent identity. Abandoning a personal life he feels is simply too selfish to maintain, the Man of Steel attempts to get the rest of "Team Superman"—guest stars Steel, Superboy and Supergirl—to join him in his 24-7 vigil.
