Mark Millar's NEMESIS : A deadly comic book superhero


This topic is making the internet waves lately, and this is another comic book hit by comic writer super star Mark Millar and fan fave Canadian artist Steve McNiven that brought us Old Man Logan and Civil War in the universe of Marvel Comics. We know that Mark Millar is responsible for creating comics turned into a live action movies  like Wanted and Kick Ass. And today we are now waiting for the release of his new title for March called "Nemesis", according to an interview he said that the concept and story of Nemesis is like that "What if Bruce Wayne or Batman was the Joker?". Then they released a cover and a one page teaser included in the Marvel comics solicitation for March 2010.

So what are the comic fans reaction? hmmm from the cover and teaser pages, it really looks like Batman and with a bloody red paint of some kind of Heath Ledger's Joker from the Dark Knight movie. I haven't seen yet the full page teaser but this raise questions of making a super hero must become his own villain. I'm not that sure, but the most interesting part of this drama is when DC comics filed a lawsuit versus this title. And whoaaa, Mark Millar did something crazy this time and win a big publicity and also attracting DC comics, for the looks of it Mark Millar will win, because in the comics universe you can still get away with your created characters, just make sure to tell them that it may look like Batman or Joker, but it is really not them.

the sad part revolves now, is that DC comics can use that interview of Mark Millar saying that "What if Batman was the Joker?", well that's Millar and I know this title NEMESIS will be a crazy action comics, and hopefully a live action movie.
