Action Comics #748

Three major threats converge on Superman in this September 1998 issue, as the cover by Stuart Immonen and José Marzán Jr. lays out the stakes with urgent clarity: the red-skinned Dominus looms large above Metropolis radiating a blinding energy, while a grim-faced Lex Luthor broods below and a worried woman clutches a Daily Planet newspaper with a "FOR SALE" headline — all as Superman strains against the chaos in between. The composition pulls your eye across every corner of Metropolis, with the iconic Daily Planet globe itself visible in the background, underscoring just how much of Clark Kent's world is under pressure at once. Immonen's storytelling instincts are sharp here, packing genuine tension into a single image that makes "Chasing the Ancient of Days" feel like an issue where everything is happening all at once.
