Action Comics No. 366 Cover by Neal Adams
While Adams is noted for Batman and Green Lantern, he did some great Superman family covers early on at DC.
This one’s a favourite because of the oddness of seeing different guys in the Superman costume and the urgency of Supergirl and her dialogue.
I also like this one for Gaspar Saladino’s lettering. Ira Schnapp’s time as head letterer at DC was nearing an end, and Saladino’s energy matched the intensity Adams was bringing to DC.
Colour by me.
