Greetings! 

Where has September gone!  Our baby Brandon turned 7 yesterday - how did that happen?!?

Nexus 100 Preview Nexus 100 Resolicited for January
  

Pheonix, AZ - September 21, 2007 - Are we sitting down?  Rude Dude Productions announced today that the long awaited Nexus 100 is being delayed until January.  Blame the perfectionist nature of the Dude.  The painted story is taking longer than thought.  And why the decision to resolicit?  Because it's going to buy us the time to send out all three issues without delay.  Month after month, as originally intended. 

To refresh your memories, in addition to the 23-page main story feature, Nexus 100 contains the first fully-painted Steve Rude art ever done for a comic story.  "When She was Young," Part II, an eleven-page Sundra Peale story that takes place at the beginning of Sundra's career and reveals her first meeting with a notorious and very treacherous---ah, long time fans will probably guess---but for now just keep it under your hats.  Baron and Rude consider this painted story a landmark achievement in itself.  All their usual writing and art trademarks abound!

And don't forget the bonus 12-page feature, "The History of Nexus" by journalist Bill Baker. See how it all began!  Early, previously unseen Nexus art!  The crew from all 3 Nexus publishers tell all!  Readers new and old to Nexus will find this feature an invaluable resource.  Heck, Baron and Rude even found out a few new things!

Nexus 100: Space Opera, Act 2 due out the first week in January can be previewed on Comic Space: www.comicspace.com/Steve_Rude.  Rude Dude Productions also has a limited number of advanced black and white previews available in their store at www.steverude.com/store.
