SET DETAILS
Owner's Description
A story that explores alternate versions of Nova by Marv Wolfman. Richard Rider would normally become Nova bestowed by a dying centurion warrior passing by Earth. These are 4 different scenarios where another person would receive the power instead. Helen Taylor becomes a female Nova. She defeats Kingpin and is confronted by the Fantastic Four. A second story explores a reality where no superheroes exist on Earth but a homeless man finds the Nova power and encounters Skrulls. The third story involves Peter Parker getting a very large dose of radiation from the spider, causing him to get sick at first. The sight of her sick nephew is too much for Aunt May who passes away from the strain. The final story about a villain Nova who teams up with Red Skull and Dr Doom.
