“May the Best World Win!”

Eduardo Barreto's cover for this December 1985 issue sets up an intriguing cross-world competition: a grimly determined Superman strides forward in the foreground while a massive, bald, powerfully built opponent raises his arms in triumph behind him, all framed by a roaring crowd and a banner declaring "Olympic Champion of Two Worlds." The tension between Superman's focused resolve and his rival's celebration makes it clear the Man of Steel has a serious contest on his hands. With Barbara Randall and Bob Greenberger co-writing and the story titled "May the Best World Win!", this is a fun, sports-flavored Superman adventure from DC's 50th anniversary year.
