The cover of Action Comics #418 (November 1972) poses a genuinely unsettling question — "Who Can Beat Superman?" — as three identical Supermen grapple with one another in a tense, capes-flying struggle against a bold yellow background, leaving readers to wonder which, if any, is the real Man of Steel. Nick Cardy's cover work captures the confusion and physical intensity of the scene with crisp energy, making it hard to look away. Rounding out the issue is a backup story featuring Metamorpho, billed as a "freaked-out fable" — so there's plenty going on inside this two-for-one package from 1972.
