JLA #93

The "Extinction Event!" arc reaches its conclusion in this April 2004 issue, with a cover by Doug Mahnke and Tom Nguyen that radiates urgency — a massive fiery explosion fills the background as caped and costumed figures are hurled through the air, while three heroes in the foreground struggle desperately against the force of the blast. Dennis O'Neil and Tan Eng Huat bring the intensity as the Justice League of America faces what the title bluntly promises: an extinction-level threat. It's a striking visual snapshot of a team pushed to its absolute limits.
