  • I’d like to point out something to the NINO crowd:  Nova’s entire raison d'etre was to look at the Lee and Kirbyverse with new, fresh eyes; it’s part of the reason he’s called “Nova” (“New”) in the first place.  While Richard Rider could successfully come back under some other name, he wouldn’t be the same fresh-faced newcomer that he was back in 1976.  Yep, he’s been around almost as long as long as Wolverine and the Punisher and a bit longer than Ms. Marvel (He debuted the same week as Omega the Unknown).  Sam Alexander’s version of the character is much truer to the original concept than Richard Rider had become in recent years.

      Very in point and very true, Richard is a veteran already which really showed in his last title and Sam himself really...

    12. michaelheide said: I guess that’s true, but fans follow characters, not concepts. Clint Barton and Kate Bishop coexist. So could Rich and Sam. Wouldn’t that satisfy both fanbases? Or is it just too soon for something like that? Is there a rule of thumb for this?

      Boom. This single post has me wanting to buy the trade of the new Nova now. That and Original Sin being really good.
