Guys I don't understand something, if Marvel had multiple universes crash together which made Battle World and the new Civil War, how come we didn't get another Richard Rider?
>>83477936
When Disney bought the company they mandated that they kill him cause of the Dick Rider jokes.
>>83477936
Because he'd be more popular than the fuckboy they replaced him with
>>83477936
Because they didn't want to make a new Dick Rider.
I hope you like Sam, because he's going to be the only Nova for quite awhile.
Because fuck you!
you'll get Sam "Roman Reigns" Alexander and you'll like it
Honestly? Because while Riderfags have literally always come pouring out of the woodwork whenever he's being "ruined", his books always sell poorly. There's a reason Brevoort jokes that he only has one fan.
Not that Sam is doing any better, mind. I guess people don't want to read about doofy Green Lantern pastiches.
>>83477952
no dick jokes but make blackbolt a cuck
>>83477936
Is there any nova comic book where he is just a space policeman traveling through the cosmos helping people in need and hunting down criminals?
What is Richard Rider like? Tell me about his personality.
>>83477991
Could we stop comparing Roman Reigns to EVERY lukewarm push and reserve him for the truly big & horrible ones please?
Jane Thor's the only one that really holds a candle.
Bendis hates him. Loeb hates him too.
>>83479898
I see what you're doing.And I approve.
The best dick rider story of all time sold like shit
>>83480687
Why people can't into art?
>>83479874
No, there isn't. Rich is a Bronze Age hero with a Cosmic background but until Annihilation he didn't ever fuck around the universe extensively like Quasar or Warlock. In fact shortly after his initial run was cancelled he gave up being Nova because the Corps wanted him to come be a space cop.
>>83477936
>Bringing back a straight white male when he can perfectly well be replaced by a teenage minority character
>>83477952
This literally didn't happen.
>>83480687
Which story was that?
>>83481092
Also doesn't help that straight white male is literally all he has too him.
>>83481122
Yes it did. They blatantly said it without saying it.
>>83481802
Then they didn't blatantly say it now did they.
>>83477952
Only autists on /co/ called him that. He has never been called Dick in the comics, ever. Unless Bendis did it and I missed it, but him doing it wouldn't count sundae he has the continuity memory of a goldfish.
>>83481981
Spidey said it to new Nova when first met.
>>83481092
>Filename:Hodor
fun fact: his last name was Ryder in Universe X
>>83479898
He was an average joe teen, not super bright, not some dumb lunk. When a great power was thrust upon him, he was reluctant to pick up the noble charge that came with it, but his belief in himself grew. Eventually, through seeing some serious shit, he matured into a hard as fuck veteran who didn't have time for all the Marvel-standard inter-hero squabbling and sacrificed himself to rid the universe of Thanos forever.(but not really lol!)
>>83480687
So did every GotG comic
>>83477991
Oh come on. Calling Sam Roman Reigns is unfair. Sam is great. Sure he's not Rich, but he's still a good character in his own way. In a perfect world we'd get Rich as Nova Prime rebuilding the corps and Sam as the Nova of Earth.
Now Miles is Roman Reigns.
>>83481092
>>83481782
YOU'VE GONE TOO FAR THIS TIME TUMBLR
>>83481092
Sam isn't a straight white male?
>>83484153
He's a straight caramel male.
And the straight bit has time yet to change.
>>83484083
Rich is shit, anon.
Shiiiiit.
So is Sam, for that matter. And everybody ever recruited by the Corps. It's sort of a job requirement.
>>83484070
Before DnA Rich didn't have a single run last more than 25 issues. In fact, neither of his attempts in the 90s even hit 20.
By comparison, the concurrent GOTG v1 ran for over 60 issues.
The real reason is that Jeph Loeb is an evil shit.
When he created his maggot infested son version of Nova (NuNova) he forced Marvel to sign paperwork, letting them use his son's name (for a character HE CREATED) in exchange for Marvel pinky swearing that they will ONLY use his dead maggot infested son proxy Nova and not again use Rich Rider.
So until Loeb is shitcanned from Marvel, Rich isn't coming back
Sam hasn't really clicked with me. I've made an honest attempt at getting into his stuff. I just don't find him as interesting or entertaining as Rich. I need a true spacecoppery.
They got my hopes up last year with Rael Rider, but unfortunately we haven't seen her since.
>>83487003
Its a bit original with a superhero that is a complete idiot. I'm a bit surprised, was Sam loeb also retarded or somethi g?
>>83487003
>I need a true spacecoppery
You should be reading Green Lantern then.
>This was probably the only media related appearence we ever got from Richard.
My smile is no more.
>>83487701
>Green Lantern
>space coppery
> not just an undending cycle of inter-color Lantern wars
>>83486345
Sauce, you paranoid nigger?
>>83488059
Unfortunately you are right
>>83486345
Sad thing is Jeph Loeb wrote some very good stories before it all went to shit.
>>83488059
>>83479874
where the fuck should i go to read space cop adventures?
>>83488059
>Nova
>space-coppery
>not 30 years of on/off earth-fuckery plus a handful of space wars at the tail end of the character's life
>>83488052
Eh, not quite the only one. He was background in a few episodes of Silver Surfer and starred in an ep of Superhero Squad.
>>83486345
DickRiderfags everybody. You can't find this level of delusion everywhere.
Rich was awhiny little bitchin the beginning of Annihilation and he waspretty dullin New Warriors. Gave that op faggot Annihilus what he deserved.
Sam'scostumeiscooler.
He will get his movie.
>that time when Rich came back to earth and everything he knew and loved were at war or just didn't care about him
The Dark Reign tie-ins were really great story telling
>comes back to earth after Annihilation and almost losing the Nova Force
>being a vigilante is now illegal
>Osborn and Thunderbolts trying to fuck your shit up
>finally sees his family again and his father pretty much neglects him because of all the important shit he had to do to save the universe caused him to miss so much on earth
Being Richard was suffering
>>83489076
Why do they always make him look so old? He was like 22 when he died
>>83481092
hey! being a door doesn't necessarily mean you're white. There are black doors too!
>>83477936
>>83477936
Because Loeb's son is DEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAADDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
>>83489136
DNA's run starts off pretty strong
