Hmmm, didn’t see Nova coming.

Now that we know WHO they are, I suppose the big question is… what is their mission?

THESE are the Secret Avengers!
Steve Rogers leads by example War Machine acts upon his convictions regardless of personal consequences Valkyrie is in control of her life Moon Knight Strives for redemption Beast focus' on the solution not the problem Nova excels through adversity

I’m still bothered by the fact that Ms Marvel is absent from ALL the Avengers rosters. What is she doing? I DID see her on a cover of the upcoming Thanos event so hopefully she isn’t going to die in the last issue of Siege.

I stopped picking it up a few issues ago because I am already buying SO MANY titles that sometimes something has to give. I may have to pick up a trade to see what I missed.

Guest-starring the original New Warriors…and the Nova Corps?! Whether Rich Rider likes it or not, the Nova Corps has been re-founded, and planet Earth doesn’t seem ready for its futuristic policing methods! Now the Human Rocket is on a collision course with some of his oldest friends and ex-teammates… the original New Warriors! Plus: a sucker punch ending that will make you gasp “I don’t believe they did that!” It’s all in the next issue of the book that has Aint It Cool News raving “This is now Marvel’s benchmark comic.”

I look forward to seeing the REAL New Warriors together again. I just wasn’t interested in the soon-to-be-cancelled revamp.

Nostalgia and the excellent cover by Steve Uy will be enough for me to add this particular issue to my weekly stack, and if its as good as the recent buzz suggests, I’ll be back on the Nova bandwagon after that.

Finally a Tigra to complete my Avengers display! Now if I could only get them to release that classic John Byrne era Storm (that they cruelly teased us with before giving us AoA Sunfire instead) to finish off my Marvel Legends X-Men. If anyone sees an extra Tigra – let me know, as there are no Wal-marts in the San Francisco city limits so I have to resort to ebay toy scalpers.

In addition to the 6-piece build-a-figure Nemesis (1 part per figure – but you don’t have to buy the varients too if you don’t want to – unlike previous non Hasbro ML series), the wave includes Astonishing X-Men Beast, Black Bolt, First Appearance Daredevil, Daredevil, Nova, Tigra, Punisher and Camouflage Punisher.

Nemesis (a.k.a. Holocaust) - Marvel Legends Nemesis Series
Tigra - Marvel Legends Nemesis Series Nova - Marvel Legends Nemesis Series The Beast - Marvel Legends Nemesis Series Black Bolt - Marvel Legends Nemesis Series
Punisher - Marvel Legends Nemesis Series Punisher - Marvel Legends Nemesis Series Daredevil - Marvel Legends Nemesis Series Daredevil - Marvel Legends Nemesis Series
