Superman: The Man of Steel #54

Two of DC's most powerful figures share an uneasy stage on this 1996 cover by Jon Bogdanove and Dennis Janke: a massive, green-cloaked Spectre looms over the Metropolis skyline — the Daily Planet globe visible below — while Superman rises fist-raised to meet him, lightning crackling overhead. The sheer scale contrast between the ghostly divine figure and the Man of Steel makes the tension feel genuinely electric. Louise Simonson and Denys Cowan bring their talents to "Ghosts," promising a story where Superman's courage is tested against something far beyond ordinary threats.
