Superman: The Trial of Superman

In this 1997 one-shot from DC, writer Louise Simonson and artist Jon Bogdanove put the Man of Steel through a crucible of public judgment. The story explores the legal and ethical implications of Superman's actions, forcing him to answer for his vigilantism in a court of law. It's a thoughtful, character-driven examination of heroism and accountability from two of the era's defining Superman creators.
