From best-selling, award-winning creator Mark Millar (Civil War, Kingsman), Millarworld and Dark Horse Comics are proud to present the debut of a brand-new arc of the bestselling thriller: Nemesis. Immediately following the events of the smash-hit Big Game, Nemesis lies broken and destroyed, but hell-bent on vengeance against every single person who wronged him. The bloody fire back begins here as he marshals together a plan for the ages.
Nemesis remains one of Mark Millar's coolest creations and perhaps one of the most fun comic book villains since The Joker. I really enjoyed this opening issue of the sequel to Big Game and look forward to seeing how things unfold as our favorite villain finds and trains his sidekick, which is something we'll get to see in the next issue. Hopefully, we'll also see more of the people seeking revenge on Nemesis. Read Full Review

Mark Millar's script is unapologetically fierce in portraying Nemesis as a man who should be feared under every circumstance, and Valerio Giangiordano's artwork infuses menace and intimidation into every Nemesis glare.
