Batman / Superman #12

This New 52 issue from 2014 presents a striking cover by Jae Lee: Superman stands with his back to us atop a rocky outcropping, cape billowing, while below him a massive bat-winged shadow spreads across a blood-red ground — the contrast between the two World's Finest heroes rendered in a single, quietly unsettling image. The bold "Final Hours!" declaration adds genuine urgency without giving anything away. Writer Greg Pak and artists Tom Raney and Ken Lashley bring their talents to "Second Chance," making this a compelling chapter in the Batman/Superman ongoing.
