Hardware was a superhero.
History
Richie Foley considered "Hardware" when deciding on a name for a superhero identity, but Virgil Hawkins quickly pointed out that the name was already taken.
Background information
Hardware (aka Curtis Metcalf) was Milestone's first hero. He was an employee of Edwin Alva, and built a power suit in the basement of Alva Industries. In many ways, he is the Milestone equivalent of Steel, and even teamed up with Steel during a Final Crisis crossover. He occasionally crossed over into Static, but had his own title well before that.
