Action Comics #904

Part of the "Reign of the Doomsdays" crossover event, this 2011 finale issue puts Superman in an absolutely brutal situation — the cover by Kenneth Rocafort shows the Man of Steel locked in a ferocious grapple with a massive, armored Doomsday creature, its glowing green eyes burning with menace as Superman strains against its overwhelming grip. Writer Paul Cornell brings his acclaimed Action Comics run to this climactic chapter, with interior art by Axel Giménez and Ronan Cliquet delivering the intensity the story demands.
