Superman #34

Kerry Gammill did the cover for Superman #34 (August 1989), which depicts a cloaked creature behind the Man of Steel, who is holding Maggie Sawyer's daughter, while the Metropolis police detective holds a pistol. "By Hook or by Crook" starts off with how Aleister Hook, a doctor that collects children, turns into a shadowy winged creature. Superman arrives at "The Project" to find almost all the children that were kidnapped by Hook with wings. The only one without wings is Maggie Sawyer's daughter since she was rescued before the transformation could be completed. Hook is back and manages to kidnap the girl again to complete the transformation but he still does not succeed thanks to Superman, Maggie and her ex-husband. This issue was written by Jerry Ordway, penciled by Kerry Gammill, inked by Dennis Janke and colored by Glenn Whitmore.
