Nemesis

Nemesis is written by Mark Millar. The artist is Steve McNiven. The story revolves around a supervillain.

have you ever considered what would happen if a person like Batman turned out to be a villain? well, this short comic series tries to answer that exact question. the main antagonist does not seem to have any type of superpowers, but he does seem to have the resources and gadgets to pull off big tasks by himself. 

her is the main antagonist of the series. as opposed to the superhero costume of the dc character batman, who dresses mostly in black or dark clothing, this guy is dressed in completely white clothing. everything all over his body seems to be covered except from his face. his cape is also completely white. and if you ask me, i would say that his cape seems to be a little bigger than what should be considered appropriate.
this is actually the main protagonist of the series. he is just a normal person who happens to be a police officer and the main interest of the antagonist aka the nemesis. although this story is named nemesis, the actual guy that is nemesis is a bad guy and the police man is the good guy. here we can see the guy with a shotgun in his hand.
here we can see that a train is coming out of a tunnel. the tunnel seems to be going inside a large apartment building. this indicates that this world is a construct of the writer himself and not an actual city in the real world itself. this also indicates that something bad is going to happen to that particular train and/or to the passengers of tha train.
this is a particularly menacing scene where we can see that a plane is possibly losing its control and going towards a large building. no further comment on that. actually nothing happens to the plane or the building as it would prove to be too controversial for a slight comic book.
now we can see that the main antagonist, nemesis himself is driving a car very fast. the brand of the car is also visible to the viewers. it is an audi car. whenever we see a brand name shown or flashed in a movie or a tv series or a comic series we cannot help but believe that the producers or the directors or the writers were paid heftily to sponsor that exact particular product. by the way, we can also see in here that the car is also being shot by a helicopter very heavily. it is possible that the helicopter is being flown the the main protagonist or maybe simply by a police officer.

Mark Millar has some weird story choice in this series and the ending might seem to be really confusing to some of the readers.
