Created by Mike Baron and Steve Rude, Nexus is a superhero/science-fiction masterpiece! This value-priced omnibus collects Nexus: The Origin, Nexus: The Liberator #1-4, Nexus: Alien Justice #1-3, Hammer of the God: Pentathlon, Mezz: Galactic Tour 2494, Hammer of God: Butch #1-3, and the Clonezone Special.

When Nexus and his buddy Dave journey to Dave's home planet in search of long-lost friends, they find that things have changed for the worse since their last visit: the once-thriving world has been ravaged by pollution and famine that seem to be spreading from a mysterious factory. Is this merely another case of industry run amuck, or do ancient Thune legends of a planet-devouring creature somehow figure into the picture?
