Nice

That first page is just beautiful

This is one beautiful preview.

Not bad.

Foreshadowing. Jesse and Richard are rebuilding the corps.

Those are great pages. Baldeon has cranked it up on those.

Second and Third screens should be posters!

I really wish that at one point or another they would explain what happened to Garathan Saal and Tarcel after War of Kings. This is one the cliffhangers that can be addressed in the Nova book.

Also..THAT RICHARD RIDER NOVA FIRST PAGE MAKES MY HEART SING!

Yeah, with as awesome as DnA's Nova was that still bugs me. Plus they just keep teasing us with Rich, it kills me!

@greenlucario: It's a kinda of a tease but also a way to show parallels between Rich and Sam. Some of the flash backs showing Rich when he was part of the New Warriors was used to show Sam that he could do a lot of good if he joined the latest incarnation of the New Warriors. Another flash back showed how Rich helped out Beta Ray Bill during is early career as Nova, and a few arcs ago Sam helped out Beta Ray Bill out as well. It's a good nod to and show of respect to Rich with the flash back that I enjoy and I hope they keep on doing.

I love the understatement in the recap page:

"Sam gained the attention of both Captain America and Spider-man, when he flung the Hulk...into space."

Oh is that all? well good for him!
