Nexus Newspaper Strips Volume 1 Artist's Edition: The Coming of Gourmando (Artist's Edition)

Description

Something long dormant beneath the surface of Ylum comes alive, triggering a visit from a planet-devouring creature and his mysterious ally. With powers far beyond those of even Nexus himself, this unstoppable being banishes Nexus to an unknown realm--and the only way out is to face one's worst fears! Author Mike Baron and illustrator Steve Rude deliver a new Nexus adventure in this special Artist's Edition hardcover! At 12 inches by 17 inches, this full-color collection is reproduced in the lavish Artist's Edition format and supplemented with amazing extras. The new "Gourmando" story is accompanied by the newly remastered "Nexus- The Origin" comic and the classic Rude hand-painted Sundra story, "When She was Young."

Mike Baron is the author of Helmet Head, Whack Job, and Biker, three mindblowing novels that will change the way you feel about horror fiction. Baron broke into comics with Nexus, his groundbreaking science fiction title co-created with illustrator Steve Rude. He has written for Creem, The Boston Globe, Isthmus, AARP Magazine, Oui, Madison Magazine, Fusion, Poudre Magazine, Argosy, and many others. He has won two Eisner Awards and an Inkpot for his work on Nexus, now being published in five languages including French, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish. Baron's other creations include The Badger, Spyke, Feud, The Hook, and The Architect. The latter is available as a graphic novel from Big Head Press. Baron's short stories have appeared in Masked, Blood Lite 2, the upcoming Blood Lite 3, and the June 2011 issue of Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine.
