It's a looooong last level, be warned lol :P
That's odd about the Purple Comet, I remember that it only appeared in my game AFTER I killed bowser (then it said something about the purple comet being in play when I accessed that game again). I'm reading a FAQ and it also says that the purple comets (collect 100 purple coins levels) will now appear in certain galaxies after you defeat the final Bowser. I remember the level you are talking about (with the red stars); maybe it's the only one that can be accessed pre-final Bowser?
