Good news for fans of Mike Baron and Steve Rude: Nexus is back, and Dark Horse Presents has got him. Here’s Baron talking about the return, from CBR:
We are so stoked on these new stories — I wish I could tell you what we’re working on now. It’s major geekery. The first story deals with the sudden appearance of a sinister moon over Ylum. The second and third stories deal with an infestation. The story after that gets real crazy. Heads will explode. Figuratively! Maybe literally.
I’m glad to see the character back; I was worried that the seeming collapse of Rude’s self-publishing venture three years ago had accidentally buried Nexus and everything around him, especially when the relaunch of First Comics didn’t include an appearance by the character. Good to know that Dark Horse has stepped in, and nice to see another strong strip due for a DHP appearance, too.

If they could do this AND put the archives in softcover I’d be the happiest Nexus fan in the land.
