Hardware #50

Hardware's milestone fiftieth issue arrives in 1997 with a cover that doubles as a technical showcase — a detailed engineering schematic of the hero's formidable armor dominates the blue-tinted background, while a determined, muscular figure in the foreground works intently over glowing machinery, wrench in hand. The juxtaposition of raw human effort against cold technical precision captures the series' signature tension between man and machine beautifully. Cover art by Prentis Rollins and M. D. Bright makes this a fittingly ambitious landmark for one of Milestone Media's standout titles.
