God....if you can hear me. You'll make this issue show why this was such a great cosmic title in the first place. But not show how incredibly medicore it has been for the past six months.

The Ego the Living Planet story did seem to drag but I think that the last couple of issues have been great!

"A War of Kings Tie-In" So will this have the actual ending to the event?*

 

(*Editor's Note: Yes, I am fully aware "Who Will Rule?" is coming out in September. I still think it's silly.)

I have still been loving Nova.  I'm not sure if I like the new Worldmind though.  I will miss the old one.

@Orionthx I feel the same way.

@TNC I believe it would get better if the issues weren't event tie-ins.

Nova rules.

Ways to make Nova even better: 1) Get rid of the corps, 2) Have Nova adopt Cosmo, 3) More guest appearances by Gamora (aren't they still together?), because I think it might make the new Worldmind jealous.

Fuck Yeah!

@JesTr: That's why I'm torn on whether to give how many more issues of this a chance. If this is the last tie-in then I will give it another 2-3 issues. If it's still medicore at that point, I'm gonna have to stop.

Dear DnA,

Please disregard my previous suggestions.  You can obviously make Nova even better without my advice.  Awesome issue!

Posted by Itiscritical on 08/26/09 at 12:47 PM

Two more issues is all I'm giving this.

The art was great but DnA are just flatlinning this comic. So many things to rant about but there's not much room to discuss it. Well there is a lot of room but I don't wanna ruin the buzz. Just a bad written comic on all accounts.

I take it you have not read the latest issue of GoTG. It will anwser your question about Gamora.

I wasn't blown away, but I have no problem with this issue.  And i'm pretty curious to see what happens with that last page reveal.

Posted by magnum240 on 08/27/09 at 10:27 AM

Nova has lost steam...I will skip this one.

Posted by RocketRacoon on 08/27/09 at 12:33 PM

would've given this a 5 if it weren't for the harry potter reference.

This is book is dropping a bit. Hope it picks up.
