Nexus

In just three issues from 1981 to 1982, Capital Comics introduced a striking new antihero with Mike Baron's writing and Steve Rude's dynamic art. The series follows Horatio Hellpop, a man transformed into the cosmic vigilante Nexus, who is compelled by a mysterious force to execute mass murderers across the galaxy. This short, influential run established the character's moral complexity and visual flair, making it a cult touchstone for independent superhero storytelling.
