“The Day They Nuked Superman!”

The cover of Superman #393 pulls no punches — Ed Hannigan and Murphy Anderson depict the Man of Steel engulfed in a blinding nuclear detonation, surrounded by sleek jet aircraft firing what appear to be missiles into the heart of the explosion. The story title "The Day They Nuked Superman!" sets the stakes dramatically, promising a 1984 tale that puts DC's greatest hero at the center of an all-out aerial assault. With interior art by Irv Novick and inks by Dick Giordano, this is a solidly crafted chapter in Superman's Bronze Age run.
