Nexus Archives, Vol. 01

There are some interesting ideas here, and despite its roughness, Steve Rude's art is still great. But the book is very obviously rough and somewhat amateurish and it screams "black and white independent".

I don't know if this is allowed but I'm going to post the same review for each volume in the Nexus Archives. This series is top of the line comic book writing. It's science fiction but it also has wonderful characterization,world building, politics and religion all thrown into the mix to create a one of a kind comic book series. Really, I've read many comics over the years and nothing comes close. The art as drawn by Steve Rude is absolutely wonderful too. He has a very clean line and expressions are fit to a tee. Some other artists have picked up where Steve had to let off for a while and while they don't do as well as Steve they still are all right . Paul Smith is one who does very well. Highly recommended... if you pick it up from show more Amazon you can get it for quite a bit less than the $50.00 cover price. show less
