The team would soon return to Exor in the pages of the DC Comics version of the series, in a tale that would resolve the issue of the twins' departure from the space carnival they were touring with before venturing to Earth, something never addressed on television.
Let me remind that Zan & Jayna will get their own book, albeit a six part miniseries, debuting February 13 from DC. Looks promising.
Rating; A-.

I hope that the upcoming mini series comic for the Wonder Twins will portray Zan as at least semi-competent and formidable and not as a useless joke, like he was largely portrayed on Super Friends. I've always felt that Zan's power wasn't really bad, it just needed a little tweak here and there. There was definitely some potential.
They're interning with the Justice League by night, and going to high school during the day. Jayna's been described as "street-wise" and, get this, shy. She's still seven shades of hot.
I agree about Zan getting some respect. Remember that amusing short on CN in which the WOnder Twins start off with a PSA about not trying to use super powers (unless you're a trained professional) to how useless Zan was as a bucket of water!
I've said before that Fluid Man was more formidable in a fight than Zan ever was!
In the cartoons, yes, but the Twins were much more useful in the books. Hanna-Barbera saw them only as comedy relief, and ABC figured the same, since Zan & Jayna were modeled after Donny & Marie Osmond.
BTW, I have the editorial posted elsewhere here in the Archives.
