Hardware #44 - Heroes of Two Worlds

This is a physical copy of the comic book 'Hardware' issue #44, published in October 1996 by Milestone Comics and DC Comics. The cover artwork features the character Hardware suspended in chains above a group of other characters, including ICON, Rocket, and members of the Blood Syndicate. The creative credits listed at the top include Illidge, Rollins, and Caesar. The issue is part of the 'Heroes of Two Worlds' storyline. Regarding its physical condition, the comic shows signs of significant wear consistent with a mid-to-lower grade. Notable defects include a prominent vertical crease or 'spine roll' along the left edge, blunted and slightly frayed corners, and multiple color-breaking stress marks along the spine. There are visible white scuff marks and surface abrasions on the front gloss, particularly near the top-left logo area and the central figure's legs. The bottom edge appears slightly feathered. The pricing on the cover indicates a retail cost of $2.50 USD and $3.50 CAN. The cover utilizes standard glossy paper stock common to the mid-1990s' 'modern age' of comic books, with a high-contrast color palette of blue, yellow, and red. The manufacturing quality is standard for mass-produced periodicals of this era, though the visible spine damage suggests it has not been stored in a protective bag and board.
