Every week, I'll be bringing you a comic book cover that I feel eclipses others out there—to the point I might just have to own it!
The BadAss Comic Book Cover for this week is for
Superman: Doomed #1. Why do I love this cover? A close up of Doomsday! The rage. The ferocity. The strength. The hatred for the Man of Steel. All of it is captured in this wonderfully detailed cover for the launch of Superman's most difficult chapter yet. Ken Lashley does a fantastic job capturing the Kryptonian engine of destruction. I love how all of the outward lines lead inward, directing the eye to the face of Doomsday!
The Man of Steel is going to have his hands full starting this week! Definitely check it out.
