Steel #13

The third chapter of the "Maximum Orbit" storyline arrives in this March 1995 issue, with Steel charging forward in full armor — red cape billowing, massive hammer-arm leveled — alongside a determined red-haired woman in a purple-and-yellow costume who looks ready for a fight of her own. Chris Batista and Dennis Janke deliver a kinetic cover that captures the duo mid-surge against a stark space-station backdrop. Louise Simonson's "The Great Escape" promises exactly the kind of high-stakes, sky-high action the image telegraphs.
