The series, “Superman: Son of Kal-El,” depicted Clark Kent’s son, Jonathan, taking the reins as the Metropolis superhero. The series was not featured in the top 50 comic books by units sold in December 2021 when it was just five issues deep, indicating subpar sales, according to the Washington Examiner. The series had not made up for its lost revenue as of August 2022, when it once again failed to crack the top 50.
“Superman: Son of Kal-El will end with issue #18, but fans of Jon Kent do not need to worry! Writer Tom Taylor and artist Clayton Henry will be telling new Jon Kent stories in Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent,” DC announced in a press release.
