“The Triad”

In "The Triad," Superman stands at the center of a clash between the Forgotten Heroes and the Forgotten Villains, a battle that tests the limits of heroism and legacy. Written by Marv Wolfman and illustrated by Curt Swan, with inks by Dave Hunt and colors by Gene D'Angelo, this 1985 DC Comics Presents issue builds tension with a quiet but ominous reveal: the Monitor and Lyla (Harbinger) watch from his satellite, confirming the Crisis has begun on Earth-3. The cover, by Eduardo Barreto, captures the moment with striking clarity.
