Hardware #49

Milestone's armored powerhouse dominates this striking cover by the legendary Moebius, rendered in his distinctive fluid linework — Hardware surges forward in his heavily mechanized suit, collar glowing with red energy coils and twin yellow cannons flanking his determined face, debris scattering in his wake. The pairing of Moebius's unmistakable European style with DC/Milestone's street-level tech hero makes issue #49 a genuinely fascinating artifact from 1997. With D.G. Chichester writing and Prentis Rollins on interior art, "Storm" promises the kind of high-intensity action the cover so vividly suggests.
