Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #41

Against a blazing orange sunset and a massive full moon, Batman stands vigilant on a rooftop — cape billowing dramatically — while a winged, demonic silhouette looms overhead with outstretched claws, hinting at a supernatural threat that dwarfs even Gotham's greatest protector. This January 1993 entry in DC's Legends of the Dark Knight series presents "Sunset," with cover art penciled and inked by Jim Fern that makes striking use of that fiery sky to set a genuinely ominous mood. It's the kind of atmospheric setup that reminds you why this series had such a devoted following for its darker, self-contained Batman stories.
