Description
Along with The Inhumans, and Omega the Unknown, Nova was one of the series I bought as a kid starting with issue #1. The Buscema brothers seemed to draw just about everything back then, so I've been a life long fan of both. I especially like this page for the added humor of showing Marv and Sal as part of the scene. This type of "in-joke" didn't last too long, but carried over to some DC stories as well. Maybe it was silly, but I liked it and I'm sure the writers and artists did too. Got to love all that Bronze Age dialog!!

Great page.  Love Sal's work on this series and Palmer's inks work really well.  It was a fun book and I think I had most of them, but haven't read them in a while.  You mention Len (I assume you mean Wein) but the other person running with Sal is Marv Wolfman.  A bunch of the Marvel staff appear in this issue, but I don't think Len is in there.  Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for catching the typo!  I fixed the description.  I have no idea why I wrote Len instead of Marv.  I purposely double checked the panel to be sure I had the writer correct.  Good thing I was never a proof reader....

Gotta love it!  Jack and Stan started the tradition in FF and this with Marv and Sal made it feel like we are in on the joke.

I remember seeing Stan make some guest appreances as well.  I think he was in this Nova issue too. I wasn't aware Stan and Jack started this in FF.  Guess it's time to crack open the Omnibus again for those early issues!
