It's been nearly two years since Milestone Media marked its full return with a rebooted continuity for the Dakotaverse, the shared superhero universe populated by characters like Static and Icon.
Spoiler alert! The opening act of that relaunch culminates in the epic miniseries Icon vs. Hardware, in which the Dakotaverse's two biggest heroes throw down after Hardware attempts to re-shape the space-time continuum. While Icon moves to stop Hardware in this altered timeline, the prime Dakotaverse finds itself under attack from supervillain Vandal Savage, marking the first time this version of the Milestone characters have crossed over with the DC Universe.
