Review – Nemesis #1 (Marvel, 2010)

Mark Millar writes big blockbuster comics like Michael Bay made big, dumb, fun action movies in the ’90s. The fact that Nemesis is big and fun does not mean that it is also dumb. Far from it. It has a wicked sense of humour, aided by the fantastic Steve McNiven on art.

Millar & McNiven last teamed up for the superb ‘Old Man Logan’. They are a great partnership. Nemesis will not alter this fact. Nemesis is breathless, action-packed, fun and funny, with some superb action sequences, a truly monstrous and evil bad-guy and an opponent up for the fight. This is a great opening issue. What’s the betting we see this out in the cinemas in 2012?
