Hardcore Station is a location in the DC Comics Universe, a corrupt commercial satellite station with a population of several million in a free space zone between a number of trading civilisations. It is also the title of the DC Comics six-issue limited series ''Hardcore Station'' (July–December 1998) in which the concept was first introduced, created by writer Jim Starlin. Hardcore Station is home to Captain Comet. == Publication history == DC Comics initially published a self-titled six-issue limited series introducing writer and artist Jim Starlin's concept of ''Hardcore Station'' (July–December 1998). Starlin produced the script and all pencil art for the series, including the covers, and inks were by Josef Rubinstein in every issue except #4. The series was not a great success, achieving less than 12,000 advance orders by the end of the short run.〔Available advance orders figures: ''Hardcore Station'' #5 (November 1998) 12,435 (159th) #6 (December 1998) 11,622 (161st) - (【引用サイトリンク】title=October 1998 Comic Book Sales Figures )〕 Starlin was later to say of the series that "When I worked with () Kevin Dooley on ''Hardcore Station'' it was a nightmare" In a later interview he elaborated "I did one thing over at DC called ''Hardcore Station''. You never heard of it, no one ever did, because they had a committee over there that looked through the plot and everyone gave on the committee gave parts that had to be added to it. So by the time I sat down and drew it, I didn't recognize it anymore. And it was gone. ... it had no promotion, nothing, it was just thrown out there and it was a mess" ''Hardcore Station'' then disappeared until Jim Starlin picked the concept back up on his return to DC Comics, with the limited series ''Mystery in Space'' vol. 2 #1-8 (November 2006 - June 2007) with art by Shane Davis and Matt Banning, and Ron Lim in issue #7 (May 2007), followed by ''Rann-Thanagar Holy War'' #1-8 (July 2008 - February 2009), with art by Ron Lim and Ron Hunter, and ''Strange Adventures'' vol 3 #1-8 (May–December 2009) by Starlin, Manuel Garcia and Al Milgrom. Hardcore Station is a key location in all three series, although it does not appear in every issue 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hardcore Station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
