Superman Unchained #6

Superman Unchained #6 arrives at a gripping moment, with Jim Lee and Scott Williams delivering a cover that shows the Man of Steel battered, bloodied, and straining against a massive stony opponent whose crackling red energy threatens to engulf him. The sheer physicality of the struggle — Superman's torn face and desperate grip set against shattering rock and electric arcs — makes it clear that Scott Snyder's "Precipice" arc is pushing the New 52's Superman to his absolute limits. A striking 2014 entry in one of DC's most visually charged series.
