In Other Media
Nemesis Kid appeared in the Legion of Super Heroes episode "The Karate Kid" voiced by Keith Ferguson. Unlike his original comic book incarnation, he had the inherent ability to temporarily nullify anyone else's superpowers, and was a member of a special unit of the Science Police. The origin and extent of his abilities is not revealed. He joined the Legion and assisted in taking down Grimbor. Grimbor uses a weapon that he claims is inspired by Nemesis Kid's power and it appears to be identical in effect, but whether there is some closer connection between the two is not revealed. Presumably there is an upper limit to his nullification ability, as the Legion have not used Nemesis Kid in subsequent anticipated encounters against either Imperiex or Validus.

Famous quotes containing the word media:
“Today the discredit of words is very great. Most of the time the media transmit lies. In the face of an intolerable world, words appear to change very little. State power has become congenitally deaf, which is why—but the editorialists forget it—terrorists are reduced to bombs and hijacking.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
