Description
Last Issue: Nova and Crime-Buster were caught in the middle of a gang war involving New crime boss Gator Jake, Nova's old foe Blackout, and the Minion army of Doctor Doom. Nova and his ally had Gator Jake and his gang The Crawdads on the ropes when out of nowhere The Sphinx suddenly appeared. Why now? and for what reason??

Now: The Sphinx is back, The Latverian forces of Doctor Doom are in retreat, and Gator Jake has vanished. Leaving Nova and Crime-Buster to face off against a foe whose powers are still yet unimaginable! But is The Sphinx here to fight? Or is there another sinister explanation for his return?

This issues cover was beautifully rendered by my Nova colorist Joao Rodri who did pencils,inks and colors. He definitely draws a super cool Sphinx!!

Next issue: Nova vs Sphinx.........The final battle!(Really)!!

Next week: Crime-Buster in his own 6 issue mini-series!

OUT-FREAKIN-STANDING! Seriously, I love all your "imaginary" covers, and this one is a blockbuster! As a huge Nova fan, I heartily approve! (I submit my request for a Robbie Ryder Nova cover- with Rich as Nova Prime!)

Thank you Jason. I'm glad you enjoy these imaginary covers. MosT are set back in the classic era of Richard Rider Nova, but anything is possible. No Nova Prime yet,but something coming up you may enjoy including an appearance by Robbie!
