In "Confrontations," Dwayne McDuffie and Denys Cowan deliver a tense, character-driven showdown as Hardware confronts Alva not with violence, but with cold, calculated strategy. After a moment of rage, Hardware chooses a different path—revealing he’s already uncovered Alva’s secrets and will dismantle his empire from within. Cover by Denys Cowan and Mike Gustovich captures the weight of that decision in a single, gripping image.
