Nemesis has some dialogue in this issue about the fall of the American empire that hits pretty close to home. How Americans have lost belief in their institutions, how they’ll kill each other over a pair of sneakers, etc. It’s very Joker. And unfortunately, very true.
This issue also establishes Joe Costello, the mayor of Los Angeles, as a heroic character and someone who can stand up to Nemesis. Which probably means something terrible is about to happen to him…

A Nemesis: Reloaded #2 Micro-Review – Dead Cops and Feces

This issue contains dead cops, and a ring of human feces where an expensive necklace should be. So, yeah. There’s that…
An ad for the original Nemesis story famously asked: “What if Batman was the Joker?” It’s interesting to me how apt that little elevator pitch is. Because, like, the Joker, the things Nemesis does are horrible, and in some cases downright disgusting. But there’s also a dimension to him that’s morbidly humorous. A small part of us that we don’t want to acknowledge is laughing with him.

A Nemesis: Reloaded #1 Micro-Review – Recapturing the Vibe

In my 20 years of reading monthly comic books, Nemesis is one of the few characters I’ve come across that really makes me nervous. As in, what horrible and disturbing thing is this guy going to do next? It’s a tribute to Millar’s twisted genius that he keeps coming up with such truly awful things to do to other human beings. This character is like the personification of a Saw movie.
That’s all to say that this issue definitely recaptures the vibe of the first one. Somehow, I just can’t look away.
