Design:
The reverse image, provided by DC Comics, recreates the cover of Action Comics #1, which is arguably the most famous comic book of all time. In the scene, Superman foils the attempted abduction of Lois Lane by stopping the gangsters’ green car, hoisting it high above his head and smashing the front of it against a rock. Brilliant colour highlights our superhero’s iconic costume, as well as the now-damaged getaway car. Within the image’s inner rim, two of the villains cower in fear at this impressive show of strength, while one of the car’s tires lies embedded in the rim. Another villain overlaps the outer rim in the foreground, adding dimension to the image.
