Superman: The Man of Steel #106

Superman bursts from churning, foam-flecked water, fists raised and jaw set, coming face-to-face with a massive, fanged green sea creature that glares back with a single red eye — it's a viscerally energetic cover by Humberto Ramos and Wayne Faucher that practically leaps off the shelf. The story title "Under the Waterfront" and the bold "Devils from the Deep!" banner hint at an aquatic threat worthy of the Man of Steel's full attention. With Mark Schultz writing and Carlo Barberi on interior art, this November 2000 issue is a solid pick for fans who like their Superman stories a little wilder and wetter.
