    (Capital, 1983–1997, 2008–2009)
©1983 Capital Publications, Inc.
Capital Comics publishes #1–6. First Publishing publishes #7-89. Dark Horse publishes 90-98, Rude Dude Productions publishes #99. Issues #81-89 retroactively numbered as such but actually indexed under Nexus: The Origin #1, Nexus: Alien Justice #1-3, and Nexus: The Wages of Sin #1-4, respectively.

It’s five hundred years in the future, and mankind has conquered the stars, encountering alien races without number. On a far-off moon called Ylum, there lives the man known as Nexus. The first to experience his might were murderers who thought themselves beyond the reach of the law. They were not, however, beyond the reach of Nexus. Soon others, including corrupt officials and slave traders would feel his might; and his name would become feared by criminals throughout the galaxy.

Nexus is an artfully crafted series by Mike Baron (Badger) and Steve Rude. In exploring the world of Nexus, you’ll travel to distant planets and meet an extraordinary cast of characters, including Mohawk-wearing aliens and the most amusing bunch of decapitated heads you’ve ever seen.
