I am loving McGuinness’es’ess pencils on this series, and you just know with the Watcher taking center stage here that we can expect big things from Sam Alexander. Marvel’s been making the push to bring the cosmic characters into the mainstream, especially with the Guardians of the Galaxy getting their own big budget movie as a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. If they are playing this big of a part in Nova’s training, could he be far behind in getting the star treatment?
Also, check out the variant cover for the first issue by Skottie Young, who has been dropping some great covers for all the Marvel NOW! series:
And since I still find it awesome, I just have to once again point out that Principal Strickland is ruling over our newest hero to wear the helmet of Nova.
