Superman: The Secret Years #3 - Frank Miller cover

Superman: The Secret Years #3, 1985 - Superman's last second rescue conveys the sheer force of the oncoming vehicle. The hero's stance is far from typical, suggesting a superhero pushed to his limits. Although I applaud the attempt, Superman's expression looks more haggard than heroic and his stance is more than a little awkward. Other artists in this issue include Curt Swan and Kurt Schaffenberger. This is number 3 of 4 Superman: The Secret Years issues with Miller art and/or covers. See today's posts or more Miller or Superman the Secret Years issues. See also this blog's Frank Miller checklist.

As a kid I found this cover iconic, but why didn't Supes just swoop the girl off the tracks?
