Hardware #7

Issue seven of Milestone Media's Hardware arrives with a cover that makes its stakes unmistakably clear — the word "GUILTY." blazes across the image as the armored Hardware charges forward in full battle cry, his massive mechanical fists surging toward the viewer, while a hulking, wide-eyed adversary looms menacingly above him, dual pistols blazing. Denys Cowan's pencils and Klaus Janson's inks give the composition a raw, kinetic energy that feels both urgent and deeply personal. It's a striking entry in one of Milestone's most compelling series, capturing a hero who clearly has something serious to answer for — or fight through.
