Great review! Very much looking forward to reading this!

But a nitpick that is also a pet peeve of mine: His name is Rich Rider. With an ‘i’ i his last name. Not a ‘y’. You get it right in the beginning but then misspell it through the whole second half.

No interest in Nova at all, or Marvel in general for that matter, but I do like Chen’s artwork. Might give it a shot.

Thanks for the advance review. I was hemming and hawing on this one because of previously failed re-launches this book has gone through over the years. The cover looks great and you can’t miss with Sean Chen’s art. Abnett and Lanning have been “hit and miss” with me. But, this review was good enough to push me over the edge and at the very least, give Nova a try. It’s on my Buy list.

I am geekin’ out. Annihilation was so good and I am glad that Marvel stepped up to the plate and decided to do another monthly cosmic adventure. This coupled with what’s going on with Fantastic Four right now, and the upcoming “Annihilation: Conquest” means it is a good time for all things spacey. Best of all, they never address why our heroes heads don’t implode in the vast vaccum of space. Must be the outfits.

After hearing endlessly good things about Annihilation, I ordered the first hardcover volume. I have a feeling it’ll be a great ready all together like that. The same for Planet Hulk.

That said, I’ve never really been a big fan of the ultra-cosmic stories that involve Silver Surfer and such. I used to lump the Fantastic Four into that group, but Waid’s run completely nullified that thought pattern.
