Aug 17, Sam Quixote rated it really liked it Shelves: best-comics And the bad guy just does generic bad guy things which is a bit unimaginative and a flat way to close things out. Surprise yourself today with this hidden gem! Mar 09, Chad rated it it was ok Shelves: marvel-unlimited Unfortunately, the fun and humor of Gerry Duggan's series is missing. Sam is now a sad sack saddled with too much responsibility, like the old Peter Parker comics. Just substitute Sam's mom for Aunt May. I'm surprised she didn't make him Nova: The Human Rocket Vol. 1: Burn Out. The plot is very basic and quickly wipes out everything set up at the end of the last series. I can see why this only lasted 11 issues. View all 5 comments. Jan 19, James DeSantis rated it liked it. This was good, but not great. I get this is all new universe now for Marvel but I felt they dropped a lot of what made Sam a interesting character. I liked him with no friends, a loner, who tried to deal with that by fighting crime. I also miss his weird ass buddies, who are completely gone here. Also why did the big twist have to cancel one of the better moments of the end of his last run. Still, saying that, Sam is fun as ever. I like Sam cause he doesn't give in no matter what. Sometimes almo This was good, but not great. Sometimes almost dying look back at Hulk vs Nova and it always makes amazing fights or moments of Sam standing for what he believes in. I also really enjoy Sam and his family. The chemistry with his mom and sister is always strong and stays true. The art is solid, and the ending gives you plenty to look forward to. While not an amazing first volume it's still good and I just Nova: The Human Rocket Vol. 1: Burn Out it expands on there and doesn't dwindle like the last run did sadly. View all 4 comments.

Tame without being sugary sweet, I think the character could headline a family-friendly film. Marvel and Miles Morales' Spide Another Nova book that has me convinced he could be the next superhero to be a star at the box office. It was too bad that said story had a badly written 'go nowhere' and abrupt ending. Elsewhere, Sam's savvy school friends realize - because of his unexplained absences and perpetual fatigued state - that he may indeed be a superhero. That story-line provides a nice little cliff-hanger on the last page. Sep 01, Judah Radd rated it liked it Shelves: marvel-comics.

I liked the fights, but I found the story itself to ve a bit tedious and uninteresting. I would have liked Sam to spend more time off world. Also, my eyes glaze over anytime the Mole Man shows up. There were some major logical gaffs. Why does gas effect Nova when his helmet literally allows him to survive in space? The [spoiler] clone of his dad has been living with his mom this whole time. Have they fucked? Because that would be rape. The situation is pretty bizarre and very few of the details were addressed. Mar 16, Annye rated it liked it. This was a cute volume - not a whole lot of overarching substance but quite a few nice moments. It's cool that a B-list villain is getting some genuine development. Sep 27, Liz Quirky Cat rated it liked it Shelves: graphic-novelscomic. I read a little bit about the new guy during the Nova comics the one where it has the two Novas in it so I guess my curiosity got the better of me. One thing is still the same though; I still loved the artwork for Nova. Basically for now his father assists with the crime fighting also being a member of the Nova corps and his mother both worries and nags him a bit about it. I get the impression he tends to lock a lot of his emotions inside this opinion was reinforced in the later issues, after the plot twist with his father. Naturally that means he fits in pretty well with the rest of the Young Avengers Especially Miles and Kamila. Will they become supporting friends help him hide his secret, make excuses for his absence, etcor will they be bitter and upset about the whole thing picture Ron in the first part of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Aug 25, Trike rated it liked it Shelves: read-ingraphic-novel. I'm not the target audience for this. This would be good for the set. That said, not much goes on here, and they're clearly riffing on the "Spider-man juggles school and superheroing" thing, but not very well. The art is fine, but they could have told this tale in half the pages.
