Action Comics #26
In "Monster," Superman faces a terrifying underground creature threatening Lana Lang, only to discover it’s not a mindless beast but something far more unexpected—seeking connection, not destruction. As the battle unfolds, the Ghost Soldier emerges, forcing Superman to protect both the creature and the city in a tense race against time. With Aaron Kuder’s striking art and June Chung’s vivid colors, this issue blends emotional depth with high-stakes action, all anchored by Greg Pak’s thoughtful storytelling. The cover by Aaron Kuder captures the moment of revelation with haunting precision.
