“Bad Character”

The cover of Superman: The Man of Steel #27 (November 1993) says it all: a battered, determined Man of Steel bursts through an explosion of debris, clutching a small child in his red cape while reaching out with his free hand — an image of raw urgency and protection rendered with real punch by Jon Bogdanove and Dennis Janke. The bold tagline "BLOW OUT!" perfectly captures the chaos surrounding him, with smoke, flame, and crumbling masonry filling every corner of the frame. Louise Simonson's "Bad Character" promises a story as intense as this cover suggests.
