“The Hand That Robs the Cradle!”

Superman charges forward fists-first on this October 1992 cover, flying alongside a massive yellow vehicle packed with a colorful crew — including a wild-maned, leonine figure, a woman with long dark hair, a helmeted hero, a figure in a wide-brimmed hat, and a driver up front — all rendered with kinetic energy by cover artists Tom Grummett and Doug Hazlewood. The tagline "The Man of Steel — One of the Forever People?!" hints at an unexpected alliance (or confrontation) between Superman and Jack Kirby's cosmic ensemble in "Super-Town." "The Hand That Robs the Cradle!" promises an adventure that bridges the streets of Metropolis with the mythology of the New Gods.
