We’ve got something quite special to share with you today, and that’s Nexus: The Newspaper Strips: The Coming of Gourmando (Deluxe Edition) is now available to pre-order on Forbidden Planet!
This is an all-new Nexus adventure, brought to you by writer Mike Baron and artist Steve Rude, via Rude Dude Productions.
For fans of the superhero and sci-fi genre comic mashup, this hardcover deluxe edition book is not one to be missed. It contains over 320 pages, making it over twice the size of most artist edition books at the same price.
Here’s what’s inside:
- 90-page Gourmando strip in FULL COLOR
- 90-page Gourmando strip PENCILS
- 90-page Gourmando strip INKS
- 8-page “Out There” (New Strip)
- Over 20 pages of extras
It’s a stunning 12×17″ case bound hardcover, although it’s worth mentioning this edition does NOT contain either the Nexus: Origin nor the Sundra Peale painted story included in the TPB version (but both published editions have the same 90-page main story).
So, what’s the new story about? Here’s the official description:
Something long dormant beneath the surface of Ylum comes alive, triggering a visit from the planet-devouring Gourmando 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 ones worst fears! Mike Baron and Steve Rude deliver a new Nexus adventure in this special collection.

Doesn’t this look amazing? I’m thinking it would make a pretty great Christmas gift for any Nexus fan. You can pre-order your copy right now via Forbidden Planet.
