Super Sons #14

Part two of "The Parent Trap" arrives with a cover by Jorge Jiménez that stops you cold: a dark-robed woman and a small, sword-bearing figure in a Batman-style cowl stand over the crumpled, motionless bodies of Superboy and what appears to be a second fallen youth, a speech balloon declaring "It's done, Mother — Superboy is dead!" Peter J. Tomasi and Carlo Barberi's 2018 run has been full of surprises, and this image — with its striking contrast between the triumphant figures below and the defeated heroes sprawled above — sets an ominous tone for the "Blood Relative" chapter. If you've been following Jon Kent and Damian Wayne's dynamic partnership, this is one cover that makes turning the page feel genuinely urgent.
