Marvel Comics Preview: Nova #2 by Jeph Loeb and Ed McGuinness

Marvel Comics has released a three-page preview of next month's Nova #2, out from the creative team of Jeph Loeb and Ed McGuinness. If you've been listening to AM radio this week, there's a good chance you've heard ads for the series, which have been running hourly or so, at least on Fox Sports Radio. Will it live up to the hype and create a series accessible enough for people who don't know what "Marvel NOW!" means to enjoy it anyway? Check out the pages below and see what you think. You can click on the splash page at bottom for a full-sized view.

Marvel is pleased to present your first look at Nova #2, from the critically acclaimed creative team of writer Jeph Loeb and artist Ed McGuinness!
