Nexus has long been a favorite among fans of great comics since 1982 when Mike Baron and Steve Rude created the character for the short-lived, yet visionary, Capital Comics.

Dark Horse Comics, recognizing Nexus as the landmark series it is, wasted no time in snatching up the title and, because of Mike Richardson's creator-friendly attitude, returned ownership to Baron and Rude so they could continue to guide Nexus through his murky and prophetic dreams.

 Reviews
This is a fascinating comic which brings to life a little known (to me at least) story from history.
The comic itself tells this story slickly, making it a human tale rather than just a political discourse, concentrating on the creative process and the lives of the actors involved, especially the lead actor, Jack Carter and his mob connections — he is dating the daughter of a local Capo — which lead to tragedy.
What also makes this a very special comic is the fact that the role of Hecate was changed into a male, Mephistopheles type character for this production and was played by Eric Burroughs, the father of the writer/artist and the comic is based on his memories of the events.

Baron and Rude's NEXUS is one of the great adventure comics of the last 20 years, and it deserves to be back as much as anything.
