Hardware 6 p 7 - Denys Cowan

A Cowan Hardware page has sat at the top of my want list for about 7 years. These pages come up so rarely that I was thrilled to get this one. And an action page to boot.

I had been a HUGE Question fan so I was primed for more Cowan art when Milestone launched. What I didn't expect was how fantastic Dwayne's scripts were or what a great team the two would make. This page is from the second of a two-part Deathwish story.

The action is so detailed and kinetic. Hardware's suit changed throughout the series (sometimes within a single issue). But, you can see what Denys was going for so clearly here. It was a great time to be reading comics.

Page is pencil and ink and is a little oversized. Not sure who inked this. Internet attributes the issue to Joe Brozowski Mike Manley and Denys himself. Bought from ComicLink exchange after seeing the page listed in a CAF email.
