Cardone

Cardone stepped onto the DC stage in 1994, born from the creative partnership of Beau Smith and Mitch Byrd in the pages of Guy Gardner: Warrior — one of the more brazenly entertaining corners of the Copper/Modern Age DC universe. With only a handful of appearances across Guy Gardner: Warrior and its Annual, this is a compact but intriguing presence in a series that never did anything quietly. Sharing those wild, high-energy pages with the likes of Guy Gardner, Kyle Rayner, and Mace Gardner makes for some seriously charged company, and for collectors who love digging into the rowdier, less-charted reaches of '90s DC, Cardone is exactly the kind of find that rewards a deep dive.
