Injustice: Gods Among Us Year Four #5

Superman strides forward with steely determination on this striking 2015 cover, a massive golden caduceus — the serpent-entwined staff — dominating the foreground as ranks of armored soldiers fill the background behind him. The subtitle "Kill the Messenger" hints at the high-stakes tensions simmering in this chapter of Injustice: Gods Among Us: Year Four, where Greek mythological imagery collides with Superman's imposing presence. With art from the creative team of Buccellato, Redondo, Xermanico, Albarran, and Lokus, this is a visually charged installment that makes clear the gods-among-mortals conflict is anything but simple.
