Enjoyable doesn't mean people will read it. I look forward to Dickfags blaming Sam rather than the fact no one really cares about Nova.

Source?

It's going to be that Sam's presence made Dick fans not want to buy because he was in the book, or that he ruined the Nova name so much that nobody wants to buy his or Rich's books.
>>
>>91644508
Wait really? Damn, that was one of the only enjoyable shit that Marvel have recently put out. Why don't they cancel the America Chavez shit rather than this?
>>
>>91644557
>>91644736
It's not in the July solicits.
>>91644764
Because America sold better.
It's your fault for not paying for it.
>>
>>91644830
Well, all this is pretty distressing. With both Moon Knight and this gone, I'd be buying zero comics from Marvel.
>>
>>91644887
Check out Thanos, also from Lemire. Good shit.
>>
>>91644557
It's also been some of the lowest selling. It hit cancellation numbers on the second issue and just kept plummeting from there. It was selling lower on its 3rd issue than Sam's first volume was selling on its 30th.
>>
Should had not wasted time in the last volume with the "where is muh dad" again
>>
This makes me really sad.
>>
>>91644830
But that's not fair. Marvel is fully supporting America when it was not going to sell well. While Nova was ignored all the time.
>>
>>91644935
I mean, it had a decent amount of pre-launch promotion going "HEY GUYS DICKRIDER'S BACK!", and obviously great word of mouth.
It's just that Marvel's reputation is currently in the shitter.

>>91644935
Sam isn't latino enough to warrant this kind of support.

Not hard when it's only had 1 issue out. It'll drop pretty hard between 2 and 3.

I should have realised the second the Nova Corps were showing up in GotG that it'd be the scapegoat to cancel this.
Guess this means Rich is relegated to GotG and Sam in Champions

Now we know why Nova doesn't get a Generations one-shot.

Oh well, at least we get a Carol team up before it goes.

Too good for this world.

So since Loeb first created Sam? That' describes the character at the time of his inception.

>>91645758
Sam fans + Rich fans = not enough to sustain a book.

Maybe if they add another human Nova...

>>91645771
He's not Robby Reyes. But he is the close second best.
>>
Bait article about Marvel hating Hispanics when? First Robbie, now Sam

>>91644601
They should've let him lie in piece. He died good.
>>
>>91645745
Sam was basically old ditzy Hal Jordan.
>>
>>91645979
Robby isn't even a legacy character it feels like. He's just his own thing and Blaze just randomly showed up at the end of his first series to say hi.
>>
>>91646199
He's a character named Ghost Rider that isn't Carter Slade or Johnny Blaze. He's a legacy character.
>>
Sad

I blame Ryan
>>
>>91646436
That's why I said feels like. He's just off doing his own thing with no relation to Johnny or Danny. Doesn't mean I don't like him.
>>
>>91646459
I blame the autistic Richfags who refused to buy the book until Sam was killed off and retconned out of existence.

>spend years bitching about how Marvel needs to bring Rich back
>they finally bring him back
>give him a great writer
>give him a great artist
>show respect for the character
>STILL say it's not good enough and refuse to buy the book unless everything is completely and absolutely perfect
Don't get me wrong. I love Rich. Read every one of his volumes, not just DnA. He's one of my favorite Marvel characters, but holy fucking shit is his fanbase absolute cancer. All of the autism of HEAT with none of the conviction to put money where their mouth is.

NOVA VOL. 1: RESURRECTION TPB

Penciled by RAMON PEREZ
Cover by RAMON PEREZ
Richard Rider is back! And when he makes his roaring return to the Marvel Universe, it changes everything for Sam Alexander! How will the young Nova cope with his predecessor’s unfathomable homecoming? Is Earth big enough for two Nova-helmet-wearing protectors? Strap in, True Believer, you’ve never seen a Nova book like this before! Action meets romance as Sam goes on a date with the new girl in school, while Rich reconnects with an old flame: the Guardian of the Galaxy called Gamora! But all the while, the truth of Rich’s time in the Cancerverse is festering in the background — and it is dangerous! It’s the comeback you’ve all been waiting for — but will it be a happy ending, or a terrifying new beginning? Collecting NOVA (2016) #1-7.

Sad but unsurprising. Marvel has been shitting the bed for so long that none of its titles are selling well now unless it has Star Wars in the name. People just aren't willing to chance a Marvel title, especially when the distinguished competition is selling their stuff for a buck less. DC bet on fans following authors like Abnett, Priest and King and won big time.

I bought every issue so far, and even had Ramon Perez sign a bunch of them. I got a commission for a Venom Richard from him that I love.

It's not fair. Why must my favorite Marvel comic die?
>>
>>91644909
The first issue was pretty much cancellation numbers because it got a 100% overship on orders.

F
>>
>>91644508
Yup he is gonna die or get depowered.

Marvel reduces their legacies to the 10 ones on generations art sans sam.
>>
>>91646934
That's why you preorder marvel books months in advance on Amazon

I'm getting my copy for half of that.
>>
>>91646934
>7 issues for $10-$12
Not really. That's a good deal.
>>
>>91647238
If Marvel was going to ever get rid of him, they'd have already done it.
Sam is immune to permanent cancellation.
>>
>>91646716
This, Hardcore Dickfags especially thise from cosmicbooknews are awful, so awful they kicked out a really big Richfag from their messageboard because he said he was going to support this comic.

The hardcore Samfags are shit too but they at least stay quarantined in tumblr.
>>
>>91647336
7 issues for $20, anon.
>>
>>91647408
Jeph Loeb definitely falls under "hardcore samfag", and he's has much worse effect on comic books than any of Rich's fans ever could.
>>
>>91644907
Thanos is ending. Lemire is done with Marvel which is why Moon Knight is finished too. RIP Marvel.

I'm more upset that Spider-Man and Deadpool ended, it was probably my favorite comic that I had on my pull list.

Except it didn't? This is issue #19

It's not the same creative team, so we don't know if this is the new creative team or just another guest issue. My guess would be the former since all the other guest issues said they were guest issues.
>>
>>91647357
He is prorected by Loeb, that's why he's going to have a big push in the GotG cartoon and why he'll replace Rich as the Nova in their Annihilation adaptation.

Rich's only saving (and perhaps dooming) chance is getting a movie in the MCU.

Marvel is looking to adapt more Cosmic properties, Gunn said Marvel Studios were looking into Nova and Markus and Mcfeely expressed an interest in writing about Rich.

Feige hates Perlmutter and isn't that fond of Loeb who is a big Perlmutter kiss up and backed Ian up during the split. Now if they were to have Sam in the MCU movies that would mean Loeb gets royalties so Feige would never want that.

So it's more likely that if they make a movie it's going to be about Rich since even Gunn who doesn't care about him supports the idea of doing a movie about him (although he said he wouldn't direct it) and you got Markus and Mcfeely who would probably be willing to do a treatment and maybe the whole script.
>>
>>91647471
Still a bit more than a dollar cheaper than buying floppies, but yeah, Marvel confirmed that the reason why they don't give trades deeper discounts on par with DC is to discourage trade waiting.
>>
>>91646910
>VOL. 1

maybe hopefully not cancelled?
>>
>>91647357
>>91647662


Nope

Bye sam.
>>
>>91647662
A movie would definitely be able to restore some sales capability to Nova, instead of every number one coming out to 30k sales (100% overshipping does not count).
If there ever is a movie, it would most likely feature Rich for the reasons you mentioned.
Right now, though, it's just such a miniscule chance for something that won't happen for probably at least 4 years.
I'm pretty sad that Rich could have had a golden opportunity when GotG came out, and all he got was that bullshit called Original Sin.
>>
>>91647818
Champions isn't cancelled yet, and I'm sure Marvel has the next three teams lined up for him, since they all got canned by issue 10 when he's one them
I'd like him to be gone too, but Marvel refuses to acknowledge how much readers don't like him.
>>
>>91644557
It's not in the july solicits but that doesn't mean anything, that has happened before with other comics (sometimes comics skip a month because the artist/writer is slow and Perez has been busy with other work and judging by his twitter and instagram)

Also /co/ always jumps to conclusions and likes to make shitty drama.

So unless you have an official source from Marvel don't take it as a fact.

@EDevinLewis on twitter would probably be the one person who could tell you since he edits that comic.

Thay daid Nova had been having bad floppie sales but it wasn't the worst selling comic, its digital sales in comixology have been good tho.
>>
You either get a Sam and Rich book or you get Rich cameoing in GotG every 5 issues and Sam in Champions.
The Nova name has been dead for years, accept it

>>91647932
The same thing happened with GR and it was cancelled
>>

You know why GR got cancelled? It was a comic called Ghost Rider and it barely had him there.

Plus the comic was selling below 10k at that point.

And then Bendis goes and uses Novas in his shitty shitty Guardians like the Corps are already restored. Bald fuck knew Nova was cancelled and was mocking them.
>>
>>91649762
That, and they only seem to have the infrastructure to print trades once or twice, then never print them again (exceptions being the big events like Civil War)
>>
>>91649809
No, I think it's just an issue of Bendis blatantly ignoring continuity like he always does. Besides, Duggan has a whole new Nova corps up and running in his new GotG book
>>
>>91647570
May solicits talk about the grand conclusion of SM/D, Kelly's story just took a short hiatus for the Divorcepool storyline. Were you going full retard like that every time a guest writer took over the series?
>>
>>91649809
I think Bendis heard about Duggan wanting to bring the Nova Corps back in his GotG, and assumed it already happened in Nova, since he doesn't read anything.
What's really impressive is he couldn't even read the whole interview from Duggan since he was talking about the family from Secret Wars.
Also, can Marvel knock it off with more and more secret Nova sects

>>91650852
Back during Vol 4, Rich was able to get sales bumps up into the 40k's and dwindle down pretty slowly.
He never went under 20k and was never out of the top 100. So, I assume he has enough fans to prevent cancellation.

Agreed. They wrote and drew Champions better in 2 pages then Waid has done the entire run.

I wish they could go back and redo it by not tying him into the Inhumans. It was decent book with nice art and a nice hook and I fucking love Deadman so that helps.

So you're explaining why this run is cancelled by complaining about a different run? How does that make sense to you?

>>91652459
>>91652546
I think Champions is getting overshipped?
Or maybe they're just too chickenshit to cancel their flagship title.

>>91652570
God, "Mosaic" was so poorly mishandled after its release. They touted him as the Next Big Thing, and then did nothing with him after issue #3.

>>91652903
I'm not him, but I'd assume that the first run painted a lot of people's impressions on the title and character, especially after all the initial controversy regarding Ryder's death. Sam only got better as a character after Loeb left the title, but the damage was done. Even bringing back Ryder wasn't enough.
>>
>>91652903
By going with the fact that no one likes Sam which is the reason why people aren't buying this book.
I alluded to the shitty dad storyline to illustrate how the character in question is garbage and how that translates to no-sales in other books.

I really, really want a Nova cartoon where the first season roughly adapts the Duggan run with Rich in place of Sam's dad, ends with Rich getting brought back, and then season 2 is an adaptation of this run.
But that'll never happen, and I am really fucking sad.
Also do some shit that just makes sense, like making Garthan Saal the founder of the Black Novas.
>>
>>91653092
I just want Rich to have a chance to show he can do okay on his own.
Sam's gonna bounce around with different teams, so he'll be fine, but Rich having 0 presence outside of Nova is concerning for him
>>
>>91653131
One horse can't carry an entire carriage.
>>
>>91652984
I thought that "no one like Sam" thing was some sort of a meme because he's annoying as fuck in the USM cartoon.

He's an ok character in the comics, same as DC's Blue Bettle. He's not awesome, but is far to be boring as Miles' book.

Good fucking luck with that. At this point the only way that can happen is if they announce a movie. Marvel editorial is relent on letting Rider come back in full since it would mean overshadowing Sam greatly, and you can't have a white male shining over the legacy minority in Marvel.
>>
>>91653172
I mean cosmic is less dead with one good book in Ultimates than it was when there were no good books, right?

I think Ultimates'll stop at #12 though and we'll mostly be back to shit movie synergy books with GotG coming out. I agree Royals has not been very good from the first issue, but I'll hang on for a bit. Maybe the new Black Bolt ongoing will be good.

The thing here is that Miles sells while Nova's last book, and this one, got cancelled for low sales.
People just don't like him.

>>
>>91653241
USM didn't do him any favors
I personally didn't like him in the comic medium, even after Loeb left. Plus, the trend of Marvel treating the replacements like they're the best thing ever while shitting on the original also hurt my opinion of Sam.

Maybe the art, but the premise and the ideas that Ewing has teased in interviews makes it seem like it's going to be great.

Please, god, don't do this to me, the story is just getting started.
>>
>>91653256
I don't know what else there is to clarify. The sales for Ultimates are bad. And whether that has any connection to the other point or not, some of the cast like America drag the rest of the book down by being on it.
>>
>>91653304
I don't think Marvel will be that cruel. I think maybe closer to MMM they'll announce another Nova book, hopefully free of Sam.
In the meantime, Rich will probably have scattered appearances.
>>
>>91653243
>sabotaged by some shit characters on the roster
>Gabby Rivera replaces Ewing in Ultimates
How mad would you be?
>>
>>91653308
Miles only sells because he's shoved into every book and he's stealing the spiderman name, if he was just another shit character like before, he'd sell worse because there's nothing to him. Nova doesn't selll because no oe knows who he is. Just like the gaurdians were literally whos till the movies.
>>
>>91653445
>I think maybe closer to MMM they'll announce another Nova book
>Nova was the only one pair not getting a title in Generations
They'll continue pushing Sam in Champions. Rider will probably die.
>>
>>91652978
>Sam only got better as a character after Loeb left the title
Which was like three or four issues, and it wasn't even bad. You really should look into these things yourself rather than parroting what you read here.

>>91653107
>Royals looks like shit
Funny guy

>>91653163
Think of it this way; if he's alive and not being used, then we know he's fine. Do you really want to take the chance of having him written again with Marvel's current pool of writers?

>>91653241
>I thought that "no one like Sam" thing was some sort of a meme because he's annoying as fuck in the USM cartoon.
It is. The only people who make the claim are richfags who unironically call him NINO.
>>
>>91653475
Dumb phoneposter.
>>
>>91653478
Sam isn't even on most of the covers for Champions anymore.
Even Marvel knows how bad he is for sales.
>>
>>91653446
But America is actually good in Ultimates. Rivera certainly couldn't pick up from Ewing on it, but let's not pretend Rivera's America is how she's always been.
>>
>>91653495
I'd truthfully prefer Rich be given a fair chance to prove he's not as bad for sales as Sam is rather than have him disappear for another few years.
>>
>>91653495
>The only people who make the claim are richfags who unironically call him NINO.
99% of Marvel readers must be hardcore Richfags since every single Sam book, bar Champions and Avengers, always sinks in low sales. Sam is a character no one cares about. Yes, he is despised by the majority of people who used to buy Nova, but he's also so fucking boring that the book can't attract new readers.
>>
>>91647471
>buying MSRP
What kind of shitter are you? IST sells 50% off all marvel trades the week of release and 42% off after that. Amazon usually sells around 40% off all Marvel trades. The only reason someone would pay full price is if they were buying from their LCS to support them and thats what floppies are for.
>>
>>91653517
Even Erwing can't make her good. She was already shit before the solo book came out, which made it even more impressive because it was still even worse than anyone could've expected.
>>
>>91650930
>Enough for the book to not be cancelled!
Evidently not according to the sales numbers since it sold worse than either of Sam's volumes.
>>
>>91653517
Gabby's America is a post-ironic smelly turd, but America was already a smelly turd before that. Though I agree she's bearable in Ultimates at least.

>>91653630
Sam was driving the audience away.
>>
>>91653304
The real question is whether they are going to assassinate Rich's character in an attempt to make Sam look good or not.
>>
>>91653594
That's an issue of promotion and exposure, not the character being unlikeable. But you've been told this over and over and you'll never get your head out of your ass, so I guess I'm the fag for continuing to try explaining it to you.
>>
>>91653678

I'm getting tired of this excuse. It can apply to this specific run, but we all know Sam has been having a fair share of casual exposure, there's no excuse for his books to sell that low everytime, people just don't like him.
>>
>>91653725
See >>91653734
>>
>>91653725
Marvel did a lot to promote him in the beginning by making him one of the main characters in a highly promoted cartoon and having him in nearly every event since his debut
Readers do know who he is, they just don't like him.
>>
>>91653661
I'm actually sort of hoping Marvel axes Ewing so I can stop giving them money.
>>
>>91653734
Those kids who like Nova won't eb able to buy his comcs for a while, and most likely they'll be pirating it since comics are stupid expensive when not being bought in a collected volume.
>>
>>91652459
Champions sells like 4x what Nova does.
>>
>>91653782
That applies to all characters, dude, is not a Nova-only issue.
>>
They should just can both Richard and Sam and serialize the Nova family from SW.
>>
>>91653734
>>91653752
>>91653758
You're right. I should have said that the comic rather than the character hasn't received sufficient promotion. If Nova was pushed anywhere near as hard as Marvel's diversity books and it still tanked, then i'd believe it's because people dislike Sam.
>>
>>91653842
But Rich isn't sales poison
>>
>>91644508
Fuck yeah, the nightmare is finally over! Now they better make a Rich solo that doesn't have NINO dragging it down.
>>
>>91644508
"Oh. No. Nobody likes the childversion of a cool hero."
>>
>>91653661

Just because you don't like the movies doesn't mean they still don't make fucking bank. Marvel is fine.
>>
>>91653856
Some other Anon pointed out who unlikely it is for him to have a solo for a while since Brevoort doesn't want to be proven wrong.
>>
>>91653811
It's specific to nova in this case because the cartoon exposure won't influence sales outside of maybe toy purchases, of which nova was impossible to find. And Sam is bought up constatnly.

What i'm saying is, the generationt hat will be brought up on the cartoon will probably not buy comics, and if they do wind up reading them, it'll be through pirating.

Sam was fucked on all fronts, made in the wrong era, written poorly for a while, shoehorned into team books that were full of other shoe horned in heroes. I was a recipe for failure, but it can still be turned around.
>>
>>91653734
I have to agree with this mainly with the point that Sam's mold is just crusty at this point.

Dick was the 2nd generation Peter Parker, being exactly likened to that in his first series. Nicieza changed him around for New Warriors making him more of a jaded teenager with a dumb streak. DnA basically tried to take what worked from both approaches and turned him into a flat-out cosmic big league hero.

Sam needs something to revitalize his character. It's no mystery Marvel realized people who stick around want more of the same and YET ANOTHER PETER PARKER when there's a surplus of Spider-Man and the 'new Peter Parker' they want to push is Miles, well, it's a lot of cakes with the same recipe with a lot of much more appetizing takes than him (whether it be because they're good or just that battered housewife syndrome of people buying shit they badmouth all the time, ie Bendis and events).
>>
>>91653854
Marvel is character poison better be safe than sorry.
>>
>>91653866
The movies have nothing to do with Marvel post-CW. Marvel Studios is completely seperate from Marvel Entertainment and the revenue made by the movies doesn't go into Marvel. It goes straight to Disney.

Marvel makes most of its money via merchandising though and that's been the case for decades. The comics were just an IP farm.
>>
>>91653853
Most, if not all, of Rich's fans knew this book existed and chose to not support it because of Sam.
This particular volume received no marketing support, but that's because Marvel knows most readers have already made up their mind on Sam.
>>
>>91653892
Re-read the post again, dude. The cartoon is only one of the things I listed. Also the other anon was right in that Sam has been appearing in every event since his inception and how Marvel pushed him to the moon after he debuted to no avail.
I don't know what else you want.
>>
>>91653856

Not happening as long as Brevoort and Loeb are around.
>>
>>91653609
>>91653632
Nope, I completely disagree. I've no issue with the character herself - it's a very Gillen character, an intentional riff on Wonder Woman, but not an unworkable one - and I like the character in Ultimates and think Ewing is pursuing good things about her motivations, intentions, and the inconsistencies in her origin.

So YMMV.
>>
>>91647084
That's awesome. I bought the book as it came out because the art moved the needle for me. I hope it just disappeared for a month, haven't seen an official confirmation.

I wish they would get rid of him, doesn't have to be killing, but they still think there's some way they can get readers to like him
>>
>>91654006
No problem my man

always happy of correcting a fellow /co/mrade.
>>
>>91653947
There's no advertising for him outside of anything really. Miles is front and center for everything, he's on all the solicts, t shirts, figures, shows, tv ads, news media reports, e verything.

Nova is a c list hero, being repped by a new kid nobody in sht books. So he doesn't have the rub off effect that miles does be simply stealing spiderman's name, as no one knows what the fuck a nova is.


If there was a movie, or if he showed up in gotg 3 or soemthing, the sales would magically shoot up. Because then he'd have mainstream exposure.


Showing him over and over again to the poeple who already made judgements, and who isn't controversial enough to make headlines like Miles, is not gonna boost his sales.
>>
>>91653970
Are you serious right now? There's no way that's true.
>>
>>91654044
Sam had a very large push initially that had no success, which is why he's no longer pushed.
Still, he did have a lot of exposure in the beginning, and he has no excuse for why his sales are so pathetic today.
>>
>>91652705
It's more that Marvel Animation started making cartoons completely in-house after working with Roman to produce EMH.

That's why everything looks so cheap
>>
>>91654088
Because no one knows who nova is, again, shit writing on a book with literal whos is not gonna get sales.


Miles gets away with it because he's a spiderman, but he's black. Controversy and rage sells, poor writing does not. Again, the small pool who read comics already made up their mind about him.
>>
>>91654130
People do know who is, though. They simple do not like him
>>
>>91654049
Keep telling yourself that, Loeb. We all know the truth. it doesn't matter how much Brevoort shills your dead son, he'll NEVER be popular and he'll ALWAYS be a stain on the name of Nova. Thanks for destroying the brand with your cancer.

Rich is the only guardian this galaxy needs.
>>
>>91653970
And I thought the Batfamily had the most retarded characterfaggotry. This, this is impressive.
>>
>>91654044
>as no one knows what the fuck a nova is.
Yes, there's a very loyal fanbase to the Nova character that used to buy the title before it was cancelled.
Kamala also doesn't have the same level of exposure as Miles and she consistently sold well until CW2 came and fucked everything up.

>If there was a movie, or if he showed up in gotg 3 or soemthing
>l-let's shoehorn him into a movie so he can ride the MCU wave!!!
It would only make already butthurt DnA/Richfags even more butthurt. Guardians ended up selling less than they did in 2008. I think Ant-Man doesn't even have a book right now. So a MCU tie in only serves a temporal push.

Also this >>91654088

Sam has had many chances already but it just doesn't work. Also stop typing like a fucking retard.
>>
>>91654088
He does have an excuse though. He's a character called "Nova."

His name is literally Ghost Rider. The second arc was about Johnny Blaze showing up to tell him "Welcome to the Ghost Rider Family."

He's a legacy character.

>>91653135
Rich as Sam's dad or as a lost mentor? If you do the dad thing just take away the alcoholic shit, Jesse Alexander really was a waste of character.

I like the idea though

>>91653630
Because the butthurt hardcore Dickfags (and some tumblr Samfags) were assblasted by this comic so they didn't buy it.

So only a few people bought it and others were starting to discover this comic because Marvel didn't promoted enough, hell some people thought Rich was Jesse thanks to Sean Ryan's arc with the fake Jesse Alexander having an outfit that looked like Rich's old outfit.
>>
>>91652978
It's overshipped and Marvel talked big talk so now they're doing anything to keep it afloat.

Also it's Rider with an i.

Loveness is doing indies, so is Perez but he's also doing stuff with Bendis so....

>>
>>91653304
From the look of things he'll survive and he'll keep his Cancerverse powers
>>
>>91653665
He's making his Nova corps into antagonists for the Guardians guess and it worries me that Rich is going to be backing them up against the Guardians.

I don't want to see Rich relegated as the antagonist in someone's comic, dammit.
>>
>>91653893
>Dick was the 2nd generation Peter Parker, being exactly likened to that in his first series

He was a little different than Peter only in the fact that he was more of an average kid (he wasn't a genius and he wasn't doing great at school) and he had the rare fortune of being a teen hero who wasn't an orphan since both his parents were alive and he had a brother (who was the supergenius and wunderkind of the family which made Rich super insecure and jealous and act aloof towards him which Robert Rider resented).

He also didn't get bitches like Spidey did, that came later.

For fuck's sake, Marvel, at least let your writers write a proper conclusion before you drop the axe on it.
This is why literally no one wants to write for you anymore.
God damn it. And to hear Loveness talk in interviews he actually had a ton more plans for this book.

If Peter is the Cancerverse doppelganger and Rich is trying to catch him, then it could legitimately be one of the best things in recent years from Marvel.

Wacker said he wanted to do Annihilation adaptation for season 2 (he didn't confirmed anything).

The second season already started and the Nova Corps have a special black Nova helmet that got powered when Adam Warlock came out of his cocoon and the helmet flew away to seek a user or whatever and it's going to Sam, it's obvious, not to mention Wacker already said Sam and the corps were going to play big roles in this season.

if they do Annihilation it will be with Sam and you bet your ass if there is a Nova in MvC Infinite it's going to be Sam (unless Japan refuses but judging by pixiv fanart Japan loves Sam thanks to Diskwars Avengers).

The only way Marvel Entertainment would do something major with Rich is if Marvel Studios decides to make a movie about him, because they love the synergy and and they would see profit from people getting hyped for Nova although I wouldn't put it past them plugging Sam so he could get a boost from said popularity as well.

>Kamala also doesn't have the same level of exposure as Miles
Nigga what. She has been in several games, cartoons, played a part in every event in the last two years, her first cover was used the advertise the audio comics, she had cover on the show modern family, was pushed as the face of ANAD avengers and champions. If anything she surpassed miles until the animated show came up.

You could actually easily weave Nova into a gaurdians title and make him somewhat of an antagonist. Shame no one knows Gunn who could talk him into it,
>>
>>91653729
Gave them money for every issue. Book still got cancelled. My money holds no sway here. I don't know why I should give it to Marvel anymore.

>>91658037
Gotta wonder what Wacker was thinking to use Sam after even the very few people who enjoyed USM hated Sam
>>
>>91657882
>So it gets cancelled right in the middle of the upcoming cancerverse arc?
Nope that gets concluded in #7 which is the last issue.

Issue #8 was supposed to be the start of a new space arc but that's not happening.

>>91657957
Worst case scenario: Rich ends up in the clutches of the YASSSS Queen because he's a Cancerverse monster and it ends with him there.

I would cry, Carol would go Amanda Waller on his ass.
>>
>>91654021
Sam, kidclops and Kamala are leaving champions. The book is going to have the Secret empire uprising team now.
>>
>>91658153
Really sucks that Rich didn't get to meet any of his old enemies, not even fucking Diamondhead, in this run.
Also, I'm gonna bet that even after #7, Rich still will not have said "blue blazes" once.

Gunn would kill him, let Gunn stay away from Rich.

Also Rich as an antagonist tot he Guardians sounds pretty cliche.

>Really sucks that Rich didn't get to meet any of his old enemies, not even fucking Diamondhead, in this run.

Loveness said he and Ramon wanted to have him at some point but yeah...

Also when Diamondhead appeared in Star-Lord I thought they were going to mention Rich, Diamondhead hates him even in the comical "I throw darts at his picture" hate him. It would have been interesting to see them talk about Rich especially since Peter was buddying it up with the villains in the bar that he worked at.

I think a lot of people were looking forward to Rich meeting up with the Warriors but Marvel hates them too.

They should hire him, his comic is thousand times better than whatever Bendis has done.

>>91658458
I doubt he'd kill him, he might even be able to weave it into something cool.
>Also Rich as an antagonist tot he Guardians sounds pretty cliche.
Who the fuck cares if it's cliche, long as it's written well. Gunn's delivered last time, if the second is as good he'll have my vote. He's doesn't strike me as nearly as malicious and faggoty as Joss Whedon, so he could probably get him to work.

I'm surprisingly angry at Marvel right now, despite the fact that I knew it was always going to end this way. I did however think it'd be at least a little closer to 12 issues. And I guess some part of me just wanted to keep reading a good book and wanted to believe.

I don't even know how it happened that I got my hopes up. I already knew Marvel was shit right now.
Guess I just needed a reminder how much complete and utter putrid horseshit it is exactly.

That really works to its advantage here because I feel like it will have left its mark even after a super-swift cancellation like this one.

You should go read Vol 4. It's easily the definitive run

Gunn just doesn't care about Rich he has said this a lot of times, get that through your head, he confirmed he wasn't going to be in GotG vol 2 and he probably won't be in vol 3.

I just hope they don't leave Rich stranded in torture pornfest dimension with the Revengers, that would be a bad end

Honestly I'm glad it was Duggan and not Leth or Jason Aaron or *pukes* Hopeless

I would have taken Ewing over Duggan but fuck Duggan is good, it's the best Marvel can provide now especially since DC swiped their good talent.

We know he gets out since he goes to meet Carol in #7.
>>
>>91660453
No shit he's not gonna be in 2. He could be interesting for 3, and jsut because he's not interested doesn't mean he won't change his mind about it. He's not autistic like Joss and Punisher.
>>
>>91644601
Maybe the problem that it is grounded on Earth is the problem. Nova was meant to fly through the star
>>
>>91661586
He's been adamant about Rich not being in his movies since the first one, if you ask him if Rich will be in GotG vol 3 he will probably say no.

He's not autistic about it like Joss since he doesn't hate the character and doesn't wish him ill but he just doesn't give a fuck about Rich, he has mentioned it several times and he rather someone else handles him.

Besides it's more likely Nova spins out of Infinity Wars part 2 (or whatever it's called) and then have someone else handle the movie with Pratt making an appearance.
>>
>>91661671
Nova went to space less than a half dozen times in his first three decades

Pretty sure they did all sorts of things to him there and since he couldn't die...

>>91661124
Cool, well I hope he gets to keep his Cancerverse powers.

>>91661685
Sucks because they were planning to take them to the stars from issue 8 and onwards then Marvel cancelled them.

Should have started that way.
>>
>>91661747
Rich finding out how quickly everyone moved on after he made the ultimate sacrifice and how little everyone cares about him stopping Annihilus was a nice touch.
Honestly, the highschool stuff should have been cut out more than anything.

>>91661725
Yeah and Batman started using guns and killing people but that's not the case anymore.

After you have something that really resonates with what people like about that character you can't just go back to the basics.

I recall Loeb saying that he did Sam (aside from being a tribute to his son) because at the core Nova should be a teenager and since Rich had grown up and was dead he wanted to do that with Sam. Also pretty much everyone that liked Rich pre-Annihilation agrees that the character grew up and got better once he went space full time.

No one wants to see the teenage drama again especially on a cosmic book, heck even Duggan limited the high school stuff when he wrote Sam's comic and people liked most of the cosmic stuff they did.

What they should have done was a primarily a comic focused on Rich with Sam joining him on occasions or just do two seperate books with the occasional crossover but Marvel doesn't want to support Rich and the only reason they halfheartedly do with Sam is because of Loeb.
>>
>Never cared for Nova in my life

>"Wow, this is actually pretty good"

This is not a good feel

At least it was a great run and has me interested in reading more Nova stories.
>>
>>91661897
All sorts of things like they're immortal bored Cancerverse creatures without a purpose now that Lord Mar-Vell is gone, Rich saved Drax, Peter and unintentionally saved Thanos from the Cancerverse and got stuck there (enough time to grow a long beard) so they took out whatever frustration they had on him and judging from what Hepburn put on instagram it's not pretty.

I'm surprised Rich fucking came out of it semi coherent and still was brave enough to throw himself into that hellhole again meanwhile Ben Reilly turned into a shitty supervillain when the Jackal tortured him.

This just goes to show Rich is a badass.
>>
>>91661968

Also Duggan talking about his Nova corps.

Deadpool confirmed for being Cosmic I guess?
>>
>>91662301
Fuck off, I'm not crying about DnA not coming back and I know even in their run Rich ended up going back to Earth in several points.

But his title should be primarily cosmic, he's a Cosmic hero now, I don't mind if he goes and hangs out with Vance, Firestar, and Speedball for some beers at some point or visits his mom but he should be going around in space.

Maybe you should KYS.
>>
>>91662383
so your saying his first 3 volumes and time as New Warriors sucks? you're not a Nova fan, you're a faggot.
>>
>>91662610
They don't suck you dipshit but Rich returning to that would be asinine, he's not a teenager anymore and he's a different character if you're to butthurt to realize that then you're as bad as the "muh DnA fags" who cry about DnA not being back.

What I'm saying is that Rich is already more associated with Cosmic know and that's what people want to see from him.

Why Marlel hates the Novas so much? They are a better green lanterns than Carol.

>>91662975
Rich has no mainstream appeal and be isn't a minority, so there's no point to Marvel in showing him any appreciation
>>
>>91662938
I lost my sides
>>
>>91662975
Because Rich is made for suffering but he still rises above and ends up doing the right thing no matter what, it's what's appealing to me about the character.

>>91663070
It can all be solved with a movie.

> Muh only good marvel book

>>91663187
I feel like if Rich ever did get a movie, it won't be for several years. Like, at least 4.
I really don't see it panning out for him. Maybe if Carol's movie tanks
>>
@91663206
Partially readers and partially Marvel, and it's all discussed in this thread you mong.

>>91663246
Gunn said Marvel Studio wants to expand their Cosmic properties and that a Nova movie is possible so chances are if they want to expand on their Cosmic stuff they will eventually do Nova.

Carol will be tied to Earth and the Avengers and it's most likely that the most Cosmic she will get will be having a SWORD like base like in the comics so she will be earthbound and not really Cosmic

Why should anyone care about Nova?

Eveyrone cares about Nova more than they will ever care about you namefag
