Hopefully Sam Alexander will survive!

Marvel has been releasing teasers for INFINITY, coming our way this August. Today they've revealed a little bit of information concerning Sam Alexander, the new NOVA. Based on his powers and the legacy of it all, it makes sense that he would be pulled into this event. Hopefully he'll have the knack to survive!

This September, superstar writer Zeb Wells is joined by fan-favorite artist Paco Medina to show fans what Sam Alexander is made of in Nova #8! Tying into the blockbuster event of the summer, Infinity, Nova #8 shows fans what new threats lie beyond the edges of the Marvel Universe!

With our heroes at the other end of the universe, and Sam Alexander having just gotten a hold of his new found powers – is he able to help the impending threat coming to Earth? Thanos, the galaxy’s most ruthless threat and an unparalleled force of brutality, is coming and Nova must learn quickly the legacy and responsibility thrust upon him.

“Thanos is not so subtly trying to pillage the Earth,” explains Wells in an interview with Marvel.com. “Sam, as one of the few cosmic heroes still planet-side, figures he needs to step up to the plate.”

This September, the intensity of Infinity is turned up a notch as Wells & Medina throw the first blows in Nova #8!
