Abnett has a great take of Richard Rider and is able to write a gripping storyline and never lets his foot off the accelerator.
Nova: The Complete Collection is one of the most exciting sci-fi superhero stories I’ve read in years. Richard’s interactions with Worldmind are one of the highlights of Abnett’s writing as the unlikely partnership evolves throughout the collection into a dynamic friendship. Worldmind, the omnipotent consciousness of the Nova force, assists Rider in both navigating his way through the universe and understanding his new role as the sole Nova. Abnett portrays Rider as a legitimate space cop, struggling between the crushing power of the Nova force and the self-inflicted guilt for not being able to help everyone. Equipped with near unlimited power and not a single other member of the Nova Corps, Abnett’s storyline follows Rider’s attempts to single-handedly bring order to a post-Annihilation universe. The volume begins with Nova’s role in the Annihilation event, which results in Rider assuming control of the entire Nova force. Listen to the latest episode of our weekly comics podcast!
