   Totally agree, I found the last 2 or 3 issues of this series practically unreadable but this issue brings me right back around. The only reason I bought this issue is because it is a WoK tie in and I’m glad I did. I hope Richard stays as Quasar for awhile, it will be interesting to see if he goes back to the Nova Corps or appoints a new Nova Prime.

   This really was a great issue. I actually can’t really find a fault with it. The new artist was strong and much as though the cover does give it away a little I didn’t really mind. There was plenty to keep me interested. Although I hope this doesn’t mean an end to Wendell for a second time.

   I thought it was fantastic that DnA took the next logical step, and revealed how Necker was working for A.I.M. This is, of course, around the year she would have been working FOR them, in the continuity of Abnett and Sharp’s Death’s Head II series. In that series, in the year 2020 Necker switched on her Minion cyborg and set it off across time (Assimilating the personalities of the greatest warriors and scientists in the known universe, throughout history).

   In Nova we’ve seen the protype Minion units and schematics at Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S. and their schematics up on the walls. And thanks to Rider allowing them to reboot the Worldmind in the Minion Project’s systems she almost certainly was able to use it to create a database of suitable targets across time and the universe.

   It may only be a background plot, but it’s all been set up very cleverly.

   Of course the next logical step would be to build the real Minion Cyborg and give us back Death’s Head II…
