Superman vs. the Amazing Spider-Man #[nn]
"Prologue 1: Superman" brings together two of comics’ most iconic heroes in a high-stakes showdown above Earth, as Lex Luthor deploys a stolen S.T.A.R. Labs device to hijack the Comlab One satellite. Written by Gerry Conway and illustrated by Ross Andru, Neal Adams, and John Romita, with inks by Dick Giordano and Terry Austin, this 1995 crossover blends cosmic action with grounded urgency—watching Superman and Spider-Man battle the Injustice Gang in orbit, even as a looming tsunami threatens Metropolis below. The cover, a dynamic collaboration by Carmine Infantino, Ross Andru, and Neal Adams, captures the epic clash in full color.
