Nemesis created by Mark Millar and Steve McNiven
Nemesis Forever is a new five-issue comic book miniseries from writer Mark Millar and publisher Dark Horse Comics. It is a sequel to the miniseries, Nemesis Reloaded (2023) and Nemesis Rogues' Gallery (2024). Besides Millar, the rest of the creative team is comprised of Matteo Scalera (artist); Giovanna Niro (colors); and Clem Robins (letters).
Nemesis Forever finds that Nemesis, the world’s most dangerous man, has now made himself into one of the richest. No longer content just to terrorize the forces of law and order, Nemesis has a new plan: seize control of the world itself and enslave humanity with super-technology. For now, Kitty Tepper a.k.a. Sofie Stein, a CIA deep undercover agent, may be the only person who can impede Nemesis... at least a little.
Nemesis Forever #2 opens in the wake of the devastation Nemesis unleashed on Singapore that killed three thousand people. Meanwhile, Sofie's infiltration of Nemesis HQ Number 5 takes her deeper into this particular lair of henchmen. However, Nemesis' current fake identity, that of tech billionaire, Hans Berg, has to deal with someone who has gotten too close to the truth about Hans.
THE LOWDOWN: This is the second time that I have been on any kind of list that provides PDF copies of titles published by Dark Horse Comics. Nemesis Forever #2 is the latest PDF that I have received.
I usually take the time to praise writer Mark Millar in my reviews of Millarworld titles. This time, however, I want to focus on the art team of illustrator Matteo Scalera and colorist Giovanna Niro. Here, they have produced some of the prettiest art to appear in comic books in several years, and Scalera and Niro's Nemesis recalls the best of the team of Mark Millar and Frank Quitely. Their depictions of Nemesis and of his Hans Berg identity are things of artistic beauty. It's like comics rococo, and once again, a Nemesis art team is finding the wicked beauty in a ruthless bad guy.
I must also throw it up to Clem Robins. He does not let himself get left behind because his lettering is as tight as ever.
If this is the final chapter of Nemesis' hell-raising (and it doesn't have to be, Mark), then Nemesis Forever will end it with fire and beauty. Your serve, dear readers, and I know you want good comic books.
I READS YOU RECOMMENDS: Fans of Mark Millar's comic books of his Nemesis series will desire Nemesis Forever.
A+
