Superman: The Man of Steel #10

Part of DC's 1992 "Panic in the Sky!" crossover event, this "Fifth Strike" chapter presents a striking cover by Jon Bogdanove and Dennis Janke: a blonde woman in a Superman costume cries out in apparent anguish while being carried by a massive, shadowy figure, all framed against a vast crowd of DC heroes and villains stretching into the background. Louise Simonson and Bogdanove bring real dramatic weight to this chapter, titled "Tidal Wave!", which promises high stakes on a genuinely epic scale. With a lineup of recognizable DC figures filling the wings of that cover, this issue captures exactly the kind of universe-wide tension that made these crossover events so compelling in 1992.
