Nexus (comics) - Supporting Characters

Supporting Characters

• Dave is a wise elderly Thune who convinced Nexus to open Ylum as a haven for political refugees.
• Judah Maccabee, alias The Hammer of God, is Dave's brash son, a skilled martial artist and freelance adjudicator. He receives fusionkasting from a group of Heads in exchange for his services, and has an indestructible sword which absorbs energy and amplifies his power.
• Sundra Peale was a human spy from Mars who became Horatio's lover.
• Ursula XX Imada was a high official in the Cohesive Web and the master spy who commanded Sundra, now ruler of Procyon. She is skilled in many fields of study and possesses partial mind control effective on most males. She seduced Horatio and bore twin daughters, Sheena and Scarlett, who are unskilled but powerful innate fusionkasters.
• Clausius is a dastardly slaver who commanded hundreds of thousands of beheadings. Nexus has battled him several times, although as a non-human he is not subject to the Merk's bane.
• Jacques Bravo, alias The Anvil, a rotund wrestler and poetaster who appears sporadically as a foil to Judah.
• Brother Lathe is Horatio's uncle and a high-ranking priest of Elvon. Lathe has caused great trouble for Horatio, who is loath to harm his only living relative.
• Kreed and Sinclair are Quatro Gucci assassins. They are masters of all forms of physical combat, undefeated in battle except against powerful fusionkasters (Nexus and Judah). They moved to Ylum and pledged allegiance to Nexus.
• Mezzrow is a young alien who came to Ylum and later started a band. He is a friend of Horatio and Sundra.
• Plexus is a brown-skinned anti-Nexus from Nexus: Executioner's Song #3. He was also a fusionkaster and had his own Merk sponsor. He represented mercy and rehabilitation.
• Clonezone is a comedian Lizigator who claims to have killed with a joke. He is a friend of Horatio and Judah.
• Tyrone is an early member of Horatio's refugees. He has risen to the highest elected office of Ylum, but he has a penchant for ruthlessly violent methods despite Horatio's disapproval.
