Justice League #28

A transformed Lex Luthor dominates this cover with menacing authority — cloaked, armored, and surging forward with fists raised — while battered figures of Wonder Woman, Superman, and Batman are hurled through the debris-filled air around him, and a pair of glowing red eyes looms ominously in the darkness above. Part of DC's "Year of the Villain: The Offer" banner event, this 2019 issue wraps up the "Apex Predator" arc with a cover by Jim Cheung that radiates raw, unsettling power. With James Tynion IV writing and art from Javier Fernández and Daniel Sampere inside, it's a satisfying chapter for anyone following the Justice League's struggle against a Luthor who seems to have thoroughly outmatched Earth's greatest heroes.
