Richard Rider was last seen in Guardians of the Galaxy (2013) #18-20 as Star Lord explained how he and Thanos escaped the Cancerverse along with the demise of Nova to Gamora and before that dying heroically in the Cancerverse alongside Star Lord facing off against Thanos in Thanos Imperative.

Now Nova is to return as announced for a new Nova series to be released with Marvel NOW! later this year. The poster was seen in a Marvel previews guide.

Currently there is no creative team mentioned but surely with San Diego Comic Con around the corner some news is to come out about it.

Personally, this makes me very nervous considering how he was treated in Guardians of the Galaxy last, but what are your thoughts on Richard Rider's return?

If Nova ever does get adapted into the MCU, please let it be Rider not Sam.

@DeusExSponge - It has to be Rider, makes more sense to.

I remember getting Nova #1 back in the mid-'70's. That was my first #1 comic and of a brand-new hero not seen before in other books. I felt like I was laying witness to how folks felt when they read their first Spider-Man comic. The Richard Ryder 'Nova' has always held a special place for me who I hope does get into the MCU. I like Sam Alexander but he's always felt Nova-lite than the Richard Ryder version, who to me will always be the one true Nova.
