Showcase '95 #12

The twelfth and final chapter of Showcase '95 closes out the anthology run with a striking Tom Grummett cover showing Supergirl surging forward through a scene of wreckage and churning smoke, her red cape whipping dramatically behind her against a stormy, flame-lit sky. She looks urgent and determined amid the debris-strewn landscape, giving this December 1995 issue a real sense of stakes as it wraps up the series. Inside, James Robinson's story "Rust Never Sleeps" features Maitresse and The Shade, promising the kind of morally complex character work Robinson does so well.
