In the second issue of this new miniseries, the Merk - the alien source of Horatio's powers as Nexus - decides to commission four new Nexi from four different species. Unfortunately, it turns out they're almost as crazy as the Merk, and they immediately set off to fry everyone on their own personal hit lists! Meanwhile, Ursula Imada's political machinations take an increasingly lethal turn, Horatio and Sundra stop by the Crystal Ballroom to change history, several old friends (and enemies) resurface, and Sundra cuts her hair!
