It's time for a story about legacy, cosmic adventures, family and bad decisions.And pure distilled suffering.
But before we can get there, we have to see his origin, so let's strap in for the adventures of the new Human Rocket, Nova!
We start with Loeb's run, which is just a 5 issue origin. This takes place before his later appearances.It gets better after this arc
>>83917720
Later appearances in AvX*
>>83917690
Did you decide to decide to storytime this because of the Marvel Trinity thread?
>>83917773
I assumed it was the suffering thread
>>83917773
No, I decided to do it because of the Sam is suffering thread:
>>83849335
next time start the thread on your phone so you can bump it when you post each page on the computer
>>83918935
This
>>83917690
My feels are ready, OP
Thanks OP. Gets better once Duggan is on it.
>>83918935
will the thread die if only op post?
>>83917861
>and get yourself a helmet
Lol like that's going to help
/co/ lied, this is great.
>>83919290
A lot of /co/ (me included) were a bit mad about Rich getting fridged and the new Nova book going to Loeb, who had just done a really awful run on Red Hulk. We trashed it more than it really deserved.
Personally, I've come around on Sam and like him a lot.
>>83919203
OPs get one bump an hour unless they use the phone trick to make themselves technically not the OP.
>>83918429
I really like the more ayylmao look Uatu gets in this book
After this, AvX takes place which I won't be storytiming. To sum up his involvement in events:
>finds the Phoenix going through space
>tries to stop it from blowing up a planet and fails
>high-tails it back to Earth to warn everybody but smacks into a plane and knocks himself out
>the Avengers save the plane and go to him where he warns them about the Phoenix
>later on, joins in the fight against Dark Phoenix Cyclops
I'll be doing Wells' run in a new thread, but keep this one bumped for new readers just joining us.
bumperino
>>83917690
Thank you op, also bumpo
bumpin'
I liked it. Thanks OP.
Nova in space(any Nova I've read storytime here) is way better than the faggy Nova teen titan from my youth.
Are you doingWels stuff tonight or sometime later?
Also, you should do the Bendis Cancerverse tie in to explain Dick Rider's death, just for the fun
Filling in almost the rest of Jeph Loeb's run plus the Mark Waid issue. Hope you don't mind OP, I love the one from the Marvel Now Point One. I don't have the Marvel Point One special stuff. Just cannot find that issue.
>>83920004
And fuck you, anon
Basically before this Nova fought Terrax and had an epic fail moment where the Phoenix Force destroyed a planet killing Terrax.
This was the first Infinite Comic
>>83920167
>epic fail
Kill yourself
>>83920213
Hey, those were Sam's words, not mine.
>>83920178
>Storytiming an infinite comic
Absolute madman
>>83920269
It's that or taking pictures of it with my phone.I could get the other Loeb issue that way
>>83920149
Why fuck me?
Are you saying you didnt like that action packed and great ending to Richard Rider's heroic story? :^)
>>83920289
How many threads do you think it will take?
>>83920252
I wasn't a big fan of the new costume but pages like this really helped it grow on me.
>>83920315
You're a bad person anonbut I laughed
>>83920315
FUCK YOU
>>83920319
Just this one. It's short.
I use clover on my tablet so when people storytime infinite I actually get the effect
>>83920360
Im contemplating about DL'ing the issues right now to hijack later, but I have work in the morning
>>83920383
I've used youtube for viewing infinite before. What's Clover?
>>83920406
Thank christ
>>83920409
4chan App
>>83920409
4chan browser app. It used to be in the Play Store, but now you have to get it using F-Droid
>>83920403
>not separating the parts first
Did you read A Year of Marvels storytimes to show how I got around with that shittty Infinite Comic format?
>>83920541
I don't even know what that comic is.
Wait, did Marvel really make another Marvels comic? Was Ross and Busiek involved?
>>83920557
So you have no idea.
After this storytime please read these:
http://desustorage.org/co/search/subject/A%20Year%20of%20Marvels/text/A%20Year%20of%20Marvels/
>>83920585
Correct and will do.
>>83920585
Oh shit, I see what you did. That's actually really cool. Will have to do that next time.
I have no idea how to make gifs though.
>>83920578
A Year of Marvels doesn't have anything to do with Marvels/Marvels: EotC. It's an infinite comic ongoing where the gimmick is that each issue correlates to one of that month's holidays.
>>83920662
Sounds fun
Cut out some pages to quicken this up
What is the point of this series?
>>83920762
The infinite? To show how Nova crash landed in Avengers vs X-Men after fighting Terrax
And now the rest of Loeb. At the end of Avengers vs X-Men Nova is asked to join the Avengers.
That farmer seems familiar
I love Ed McGuinness
>>83917915
I wish the little starfish thing nova showed up more.
>GLEEP.
>>83920819
Huh, I thought we got Captain Tumblr longer ago than this.
Having Rich's old bad guys show up was great
>>83920951
>Avengers vs X-Men was 4 years ago
And that's it. Thanks to OP and thank you for reading.
>>83920951
She became Captain Marvel during AvX.
>>83920906Hyperion?
>>83920986
kek I totally thought anon meant Captain Falcon
>>83920906
Is that meant to be Supes?
>>83921025
>Pa
Yes
>>83920979
Thanks! Now I gotta finish your Hickman thread from Friday
>>83919372
>Chittards
Based Sam
Depression bump.
>>83920979
good shit. i actualy really liked the intro. why is he so young in the new series though?
>>83917878
>Not a daft hero oblivious to advances of love interest
>Just realistic, perhaps morbidly so, about where it will head
Color me impressed so far.
>>83919089
>Baits and switches, using himself as the bait and then grabbing the prize and high tailing
Sheeeeeeit. This kid's something else.
I also like how the story kind of turns on its head, it seemed like the Chitauri were just after Earth because Earth but it's actually a revenge mission clearly. That's actually very clever.
>>83919253
The planet sized balls on this kid!
Just straight bluff a giant man tiger holding a gun to your head and your headgun in his other hand.
It's dumb luck the skateboard was there, but I'm still impressed. He was not going to go out like a punk.
>>83919321
>>83919335
>>83919372
>Instead of seizing up from shock, he blocks threats to hostages with his indestructible force field and redirects back into the offensive and takes enemy away from bystanders, and Earth, and space jumps with the enemy's army in sight, gambits for a surrender and then pulls out the back up plan when the first fails all in one swift motion
Hol up. I SAID HOL UP. I'm far from done riding this kid.
This is THE next level of heroism. He's completely fearless.
Have you ever seen a debut this based?
I mean it didn't work, but still it's the bold determination and raw enthusiasm that counts. Okay, I'm done for now.
Oh wow this is great
Thanks a lot OP, I used to dislike Sam but the suffering thread has open my eyes, BTW now I hate Miles and Kamala even more...
>/co/ finally realizes how good nova is
>>83923133
You just can't helped but liking the kid. He grew on you.Maybe because of the suffering.
>>83921342
Thank you.
>>83921501
It says he's fifteen, then sometime during the first few chapters his birthday passes and it gets mentioned that he's sixteen. That's not especially young for teen heroes.
>>83921501
He's just short
>>83923378
I kinda hope if he gets a mentor it's beta ray bill since there buds
>>83923133
/co/ always comes around to a good husbando
>Loeb is still fantastic
/co/ is wrong so much it's not even funny
>>83918429
>AYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
reading bump
>>83920922
>That face
never go full bobobobo
Im tempted to say that if rich didn't die and Sam had the exact same debut that people wouldn't have immediately hated him
>>83920979
it's over!?!?! awwww. thank you, i really enjoyed that
>>83928311
I'm going to be storytiming the Wells run pretty soon, so stick around. Going to do it in a new thread.
>>83920873
>>83920868
>copy and pasted
how lazy can you be
>>83928745
It's not copy-pasted, it's an Infinite Comic. Have you never read one of these before?
>>83928779
two of the panels are literally the same
>>83928805
I think on those it's animated so it's technically one page but the dialogue and shit moves around
>>83928805
Yes, because it's an infinite comic. They're not separate pages. They're the same page, but the dialogue boxes change, or tiny changes to the panels happen to create the illusion of movement.
These aren't supposed to be read in storytime format. You're supposed to read them on a tablet using the Marvel app.
>>83928844
it should of been adapted for both formats
>>83928862
The vast majority of infinite comics have both an Infinite format (for digital) and a traditional Physical Format that's only released in floppies. BUt the thing is that the scene nowadays never physically scans comics anymore, they just rip the digital versions. As a result, none of the physical-versions ever get scanned so they're only available if you were to actually go out and buy it.
Either way, you can't storytime a comic that's never been scanned, so the only option is to go with the infinite version.
>>83927399
If that were the case, nobody would have read anything to do with Sam and he'd fade into obscurity
Nobody would hate him, they just wouldn't have cared.
>>83920979
>>83919493
NEW THREAD:
>>83929024
bumpo
Thanks OP
>>83917690
Nice.
Reading bump.
>>83917690
So dis nigga is just Peter Parker + Hal Jordan
>>83917955
This is the shit that always pulls me out of the narrative. This boi surely knows about Thor and She-hulk and all that? like, the fucking apocalyptic scenarios surely made the news?
