Nexus!

 
Nexus freakin' RAWKS. And at ComiCon this year, Steve Rude, the artist who drew Nexus, is showing a demo of animation he's done in the hopes of getting someone interested in making a series.  I hope he succeeds in getting this made - I'd love to see Nexus made into a cartoon. 
 
Steve Rude based the idea for Nexus' design from one of his favorite cartoons - the pre-talk show Space Ghost.  (A show I loved too).  He and Mike Baron did a number of Nexus comic books for Capitol Comics, First Comics, and then Dark Horse.  My personal favorite is #40.  And the crossover issues with the Badger (another Rude/Baron collaboration) are absolutely hilarious.  Nexus has great characters, the right blend of action, humor, and character.  If you get a chance, I strongly suggest you check out a couple of back issues. 

And check his auctions on eBay - he's got some original artwork for sale to help support his animation project.  Steve really is "The Dude". (If only I weren't a poor law student).
