Who is Nova Kane?

Nova Kane is a quick-witted nightclub singer who crosses paths with E-Man, an alien being of pure energy, in their debut adventure. Her street smarts and bold personality make her his closest ally and partner.

From the very first issue of E-Man in 1973, Nova Kane stepped into the Bronze Age spotlight as a creation of the celebrated team of Nicola Cuti and Joe Staton, making her one of Charlton Comics' most enduring figures. Across an impressive span of nearly five decades β€” from 1973 all the way to 2018 β€” she has kept remarkable company, sharing pages with E-Man, the hard-boiled Michael Mauser, and a colorful cast that gives the series its distinctive, offbeat charm. Her appearances stretch across E-Man, The Original E-Man and Michael Mauser, and The Charlton Arrow, a testament to her staying power in a corner of comics history that dedicated collectors absolutely treasure. If you have a soft spot for Bronze Age gems with genuine heart and longevity, Nova Kane is exactly the kind of character worth seeking out.
