DescriptionEven though I make fun of how the ending didn't quite stick the landing, I was a rabid follower when Our Worlds At War was coming out in the various Superman titles. as a frequent Wednesday Warrior at the now defunct Comics Ink shop on Overland in Culver City, I anticipated each chapter from week to week! In my mind, the event was a perfect showcase for Superman taking on all comers in battle if anything else!The cover features a majestic image of Superman (one knee up!) atop the rubble of the toppled monument to the ruler of Apokolips, Darkseid! Grateful to have my second Superman and second OWAW Cover! Pickup from ComicConnect at #OAX2024! Social/Sharing |

Out the door just in time
Head down to Friendly Fire
Gotta get to the store by 8 a.m.
My hope's bring Worlds At War
Darkseid is falling hard
I'm bidding late tonight again
Well, I know that Mahnke's bold
Your bid at work before it's sold
But I can't do this all on my own
No, I know I'm no Culverman
I'm no Superman
You've got your art online
You Nguyen your inking line
But you're just framed onto the wall
And Connect to Comic art
Won't get you every war
There ain't no Manke breaks your fall
Well, I know what I've bid told
You get a gold Tom Nguyen at show
But I can Nguyen this war on my own
No, I know bid on Superman
Best of Superman
That's right

Such a great cover, man! I'm a sucker for high contrast work and just looking at the thumbnail, this could very well have been Mignola. Fantastic work by Doug!

A cover featuring Superman standing triumphantly atop the toppled statue of Darkseid? Count me in! Congrats on getting your 2nd Superman cover! So fortunate that the inks appear to be minty fresh, too, as Mahnke used bad quality markers for a time and tons of his originals are now fading into oblivion. A friend of mine has an entire portfolio filled with them!

Awesome, D! Love seeing some throwback Mahnke. Supes triumphant, but as per usual, not basking in it :) The hero we all need! Congrats!
