Legion Worlds #6

The concluding chapter of DC's 2001 miniseries lands on Rimbor — one of the rougher corners of the 30th century — and John Cassaday's cover makes the stakes feel immediately visceral. A snarling, powerfully built figure wearing a Superman symbol looms in the crosshairs of a sniper's scope, shielding a young girl behind him against a gritty, graffiti-tagged wall. Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning wrap up their world-by-world tour of the Legion universe with artist Kilian Plunkett, and if this cover is any indication, Rimbor delivers exactly the dangerous, street-level tension the planet's reputation promises.
