Action Comics #36
In "The Enemy Invasion," Superman faces a shadowy threat as a secret group known as the Volunteers for Peace plots to undermine American defenses, paving the way for an invasion by the mysterious "Nation X." Written by Jerry Siegel and illustrated by Wayne Boring and Joe Shuster, with inks by Boring, this 1941 classic sees Superman step in to protect Lois and thwart the conspiracy—before the full scope of the danger is revealed. The cover, by Fred Ray, captures the tension with a striking image of Superman in action.
