JLA #32

The Justice League has arrived in Gotham — and this ground-level cover by Howard Porter and John Dell says everything with a single striking image: a cluster of heroic boots and legs standing over a crumpled "Welcome to Gotham" sign, costumes in red, blue, and yellow unmistakably hinting at DC's heaviest hitters assembled on the city's broken streets. Written by Mark Waid and Devin Grayson, with interior art by Mark Pajarillo and Walden Wong, "Inside Job" promises the full weight of the League bearing down on one of comics' most storied cities. A wonderfully composed August 1999 issue that draws you in before you've even cracked the spine.
