Superman #324

Superman finds himself in a desperate aerial clash with Titano the Super-Ape, whose massive stone-gray form dominates this June 1978 cover — green Kryptonite beams blazing from the giant creature's eyes straight at the Man of Steel. A red-haired woman watches in alarm from a rocky ledge above, as the cover copy urgently warns that Titano is poised to become Superman's executioner. Rich Buckler and Dick Giordano deliver a cover with real visual punch, capturing a villain whose very gaze could spell doom for the one hero seemingly immune to everything else.
