Superman #2/1983

In "Prolog," Superman finds himself locked in a brutal clash with Batman—only to discover the Dark Knight is merely a decoy in a cunning scheme by Superbat, a criminal wielding the combined powers of the Legion of Super-Heroes from the 30th century. Written by Cary Burkett and illustrated by George Tuska, with inks by Frank McLaughlin and colors by Gene D'Angelo, this 1983 issue delivers a high-stakes mystery where identity and power blur. The cover by Rich Buckler and Frank Giacoia captures the tension with striking precision.
