I don't have this ish, but this website says Livewire appeared. I was wanting to know if this expands on her brainwashing :thumb:

Mainly about her fighting the corps. Nothing on the brainwash, except that she is working for Harada. Could have been a good issue, but wasn't. If they had not overdone the number of incompetent "soldiers" uselessly attacking and if we had learned more about Livewire, I would have liked it. Now it's a big so-what.

It was o.k.

I'm glad the x-over is done though. I'm ready for this series to start hitting high gear!

I really dug this issue, but my feelings were probably more favorable to the cross-over, in general. I really loved Harada's return, and how he handled things.

I do not have books beyond this, but I really hope that H.A.R.D. Corps continues to have some fun in it (it's surprisingly one of my favorite books thus far!)

HARDcorps is one of those series that totally tanked in it's end run...the hoar, the hoar...especially the last 5 issues...revolting stuff...

Was it ever really explained why Heydrich hated Harada so much, and/or what ties Heydrich had with Harada before running Omen Enterprises and starting the H.A.R.D. Corps? Based on this crossover, it seems that Heydrich was just jealous and wanted more power...

Pretty much and that made it all an EPIC FAIL.

Was this before or after Rude took over?

Much as I like the majority of his stuff that I have read, Rude raped HARD Corps.

I was going to say, I think the only thing Steve Rude ever did in conjuction with Valiant would have been the Magnus/Nexus crossover.

Yeah, my bad. It is the Nexus connection that made me think of Rude.

Baron's work for Valiant was waaaay below par for him.
