Covers Always Lie, but every now and then, you find a cover that actually tells you what's in the comic by showing a scene that really takes place, with little or no deviation from an actual panel in the story. In other words, the art was taken from the actual panel itself. Of course, the scene can still be so out of context as to throw you off, bringing us back to Covers Always Lie, but there you are.

The cover of Demon Spawn features Supergirl being seized by demons as villain Nightflame holds a flaming sword above her. That scene happens, although slightly tweaked.

Superman's Girl Friend Lois Lane #81 comic has a cover that shows Superman killing Lois in space.◊ Although the scene was tweaked a little for the cover, it unfolded almost exactly as shown except that Superman wasn't trying to kill her, as the cover implied, but saving her life.

Action Comics Number One has an iconic cover◊ that has been parodied, homaged, copied and just plain stolen in almost every other visual medium. The image of Superman lifting the car is so associated with the character that each new iteration of the character will re-enact the scene, albeit often in different context. The artist made the cover by taking a panel from the interior story and blowing it up to fit the entire page.

The iconic cover◊ of Action Comics #252: The Supergirl from Krypton features a girl clad in a Superman-like costume emerging from a space rocket, calling herself Supergirl and claiming to have all powers of Superman.
