Nexus: Into the Past and Other Stories #[nn]

Multiple versions of Nexus spiral dynamically across a swirling, target-like vortex on Steve Rude's striking cover — the hero's bold blue-and-red costume repeated in a dizzying cascade that perfectly captures the time-bending theme of this 2015 Dark Horse collection. Rude's unmistakable artwork, rendered with his own inks, brings a kinetic, painterly energy to the figures as they tumble through what looks like a radiant green dimensional field. Fans of this long-running sci-fi superhero series will find this a satisfying gathering of stories showcasing one of comics' most distinctively crafted visual sensibilities.
