The second coming of Jesus will be the last judgement and the end of the world. Everyone will be judged - the good will go with our Lord into heaven; the wicked to hell. Mt. 25:31-46
The Catechism covers this topic in paragraphs 1038-1050.
Here are a couple paragraphs:
1042 At the end of time, the Kingdom of God will come in its fullness. After the universal judgment, the righteous will reign for ever with Christ, glorified in body and soul. the universe itself will be renewed:

The Church . . . will receive her perfection only in the glory of heaven, when will come the time of the renewal of all things. At that time, together with the human race, the universe itself, which is so closely related to man and which attains its destiny through him, will be perfectly re-established in Christ.629

1043 Sacred Scripture calls this mysterious renewal, which will transform humanity and the world, "new heavens and a new earth."630 It will be the definitive realization of God’s plan to bring under a single head "all things in [Christ], things in heaven and things on earth."631
The text gives references to various Scripture passages which are listed in the footnnotes at the bottom of the page. I’ll leave it to you to look them up. 🙂
