Nemesis The Warlock: The Final Conflict Eps 7-9

Personally, I subscribe to the view that aliens have been amongst us from the dawn of time, guiding/interfering with us.

I’m blown away by Nemesis the Warlock: the Definitive Edition, Vols 1 and 2. My compliments to the publishers, Rebellion, and especially their designer Gemma Sheldrake for the truly inspired front and back covers.

Volume 2 is now on sale from the 2000AD store.

Such a Definitive Edition requires a Definitive Commentary, a companion piece for when you’re looking at the beautiful art by art-creator Kevin O’Neill and the other talented artists that followed him. So it’s time for The Secret History of Nemesis the Warlock, an episode by episode revelation of what really went on behind the scenes.

Episode 7: The Verdict

Torquemada causes the ‘accidental’ death of the judge, and the jury are unable to reach a verdict.So President Purity Brown – magnificently depicted by Henry here – hands the Grand Master over to Nemesis for justice. We see how Nemesis has ripped out the hearts of other leading Terminators and turned them into zombies. Now that fate awaits Torquemada!

Nemesis has hoped that this would break Torquemada’s spirit and cause him to see the enormity of his crimes. But in this, the warlock has failed. By comparison, the Church of England and the Catholic Church have recently said they are ‘deeply sorry’, for yet another wave of their terrible crimes. Of course, they’re not really sorry. They’re just sorry they got caught.
