Superman and Horror

So I'm rewatching some Superman: TAS and I really like the Unity episode.

Superman vs horror concepts is always hard. Like Superman vs Aliens doesn't work because Superman mogs the Xenomorph usually and they have to go out of their way to really make it feel real.

Compare to Batman vs Predator which is a way easier fight to pace/right.

But Unity does it real well. It's cosmic horror so it's scales better and the threat isn't

"Oh my god this thing will hurt me with it's Kryptonian piercing claws"

It's

"Oh my god this thing took over Smallville and now my parents are in danger".

Also focuses on Supergirl for a POV character which was neat. I always like seeing Supergirl be closer to Superman, family wise.

Anyways, I was wondering what ideas you'd have for a Superman vs Cosmic Horror arc for the comics or if there are any horror adjecent issues that you remember?
