Description I was inspired to do a new design for Nova, and while I was at it, I took a shot at some of his villains, as well.

I have to say this is a great design for Nova - again combining both the classic 70's icon traits with the modern Annihilation design. Thanks for sharing Heroblog!

I was surprised how easily it came together. Sometimes, it's a real chore to come up with a new design.

My own redesign was based on comments submitted by members at Nova Prime Page yahoo's group. For the most part many like the Annihilation design however the "spikes" have always been a slight contention point (pun intended) especially when you see how big Mike Deodato draws them in SA! I took the comments and thus designed a uniform incorporating also design aspects for the modern US military and hence the look I got.

Like I said great design and you're very welcome to pitch in a few for the Nova 619 universe when time permits! And yes I liked Powerhouse best! Daz.

Yeah, the spikes could be a problem. Some artists just have no sense of what's needed in a fighting suit. Those spikes are like offering your enemy a handle to grab, and in the old days of edged weapons, a place to "catch" a sword.
You know, thinking back on the old Nova series, it was quite the sausage party. It was like a boys' clubhouse, "No girls allowed". Nova needs a female adversary, doesn't he?
