Oh, didn't realize that.
The building explosion is from Harbinger? Which issue? Armorines/Hard Corps is by Mike Leeke? Great Spider Alien battle scene.
It's from Harbinger 0 and the Armorines art should be Jim Calafiore.

I didn't check for sure, just from memory. Double page spreads were pretty rare in pre-Unity, and Magnus 8 came out the same month as Solar 5 and Harbinger 1.

It's from Harbinger 0 and the Armorines art should be Jim Calafiore.
Thanks. Calafiore was my first guess but I thought it looked too clean for him. Great piece.
