Legion of Super-Heroes #7

The entire Legion stands united on this cover — a sweeping tableau of silhouetted heroes, with Superman's red cape and "S" shield the one vivid focal point among the crowd, all of them facing a sky filled with imposing United Planets warships and blinding searchlights. Ryan Sook's composition brilliantly conveys both the scale of the team and the weight of the confrontation telegraphed by the bold "Showdown with the United Planets!" cover blurb. It's a striking issue from Bendis, Sook, and the rest of the creative team that makes the Legion's 31st-century world feel genuinely vast and alive.
