Captain America #7

Captain America finds himself locked in a fierce mid-air grapple with a green-faced, caped villain against a backdrop of burning city streets and scattered debris — the stakes couldn't feel higher. The star-spangled shield dominates the upper right corner while chaos erupts below, making this 1998 cover by Andy Kubert and Jesse Delperdang a genuinely gripping piece of work. Mark Waid's "Power and Glory" arc reaches its third chapter here, with art from Dale Eaglesham rounding out a creative team firing on all cylinders.
