Battle For Thuneworld Artist Edition Launching This Weekend!
We’re about to launch the crowdfunding campaign for Nexus: Battle for Thuneworld Artist Edition this Saturday, March 28.
Nexus is a fusion-powered hero forced to deliver justice to the worst mass murderers in the galaxy.
In Battle for Thuneworld, he’s pulled into a new conflict after a mysterious crash landing and the disappearance of a friend — a story that pushes him into rebuilding a shattered world.
This project marks a major moment for the series. Battle for Thuneworld is the first Nexus story fully written and drawn by Steve Rude — a complete solo vision.
Presented as a 12” x 17” oversized Artist Edition, this collection features more than 300 pages of pencils, inks, and fully colored artwork. It’s a rare opportunity to see the full process up close — from raw structure to finished page — at the scale it was meant to be experienced.
This book is built for:
• Nexus readers continuing the story
• Comic art collectors
• Artists and students of the craft
• Anyone who appreciates traditional illustration at its highest level
With the campaign launching this week, this is the final window to get in early.
Early access is now open, and supporters can also secure exclusive rewards — including a Nexus keychain that will only be available during this campaign.
