Join young Sam Alexander as he discovers his family legacy as a member of the galactic defenders known as the Nova Corps!
The new Human Rocket roars into action! Sam Alexander is a kid bound by the gravity of a small town — and a father whose ridiculous, drunken fairy tales about a “Nova Corps” were just another heavy burden. But lucky for Sam, his troubles will soon be a billion miles away! A hand-me-down helmet has unlocked Sam Alexander’s heroic legacy — and even as the Guardians of the Galaxy try to train him, the helmet will soon lead the newest Nova into a massive intergalactic conflict! Plus: Nova takes on the Superior Spider-Man, but can he handle his overwhelming first taste of true cosmic power? For Sam Alexander, the future possibilities are endless — and the horizon is only an instant away!
