Rebel Moon: Nemesis is based on a story by Zack Snyder and written by Gail Simone, with art by Federico Bertoni. The Rebel Moon prequel series by Titan Comics recounts the origins of Nemesis, played by Doona Bae in Rebel Moon – Part One: A Child of Fire and Rebel Moon – Part Two: The Scargiver. Titan describes Rebel Moon: Nemesis as “an action-packed and badass story in the style of a revenge western,” as Nemesis finds herself in the path of Imperium soldiers who slaughter her family, sending her on the path to be the blade-wielding warrior we find in Rebel Moon.
“I feel like this story was a little bit destined to happen, somehow. My family and I were watching Rebel Moon and really enjoying it, and I just immediately focused on Nemesis,” said writer Gail Simone. “I loved the badassery of her, but also the way she addressed grief, and recognized it in others. I just was completely smitten with her, and I actually said to my family, “Man, I would love to write her someday.” Well, someone was listening because I get this message that Zack would like to talk to me about writing that exact character. Who am I to argue with fate? She’s a powerful, powerful character, she leaps off the page (and screen) and I cannot even explain how much I enjoyed playing in this sandbox.”
Along with the trailer comes preview pages for Rebel Moon: Nemesis #1 by Federico Bertoni.
