Nova #129
In "Prison de chair...", John Byrne's gripping script and bold artwork bring a cosmic clash to the heart of Latveria, where Doom's desperate bid to reclaim his body ignites a dangerous alliance with the Beyonder. With Reed Richards trying to reason with the powerful entity and the fate of the Fantastic Four hanging in the balance, the stakes are higher than ever—especially when the Beyonder's intervention leads to an unexpected split. The cover by John Romita captures the tension in bold, dynamic lines, while Byrne's storytelling and Sinnott's inks deliver a layered, intense read.
In "Prison de chair...", Doctor Doom, masquerading as Invincible Man, slips into the Latverian Embassy in New York, revealing a chilling survival tale: he endured his defeat at the hands of Tyros by seizing control of Peggy McArthur’s husband’s body. The story unfolds with a cold, calculated tension as Doom’s deception sets the stage for something far more unsettling.
In "Le cercle temporel," Doom’s desperate bid to reconstruct his body using cosmic mysticism collapses, forcing him to summon the Beyonder—once wronged by the tyrant. With Reed Richards trying to reason with the powerful being, the fate of Doom and the fate of the world hang in the balance as old grudges collide.
In "L'espace est... Eternité!", the Surfer and Nova pursue the fleeing Contemplator after Galactus consumes four of the Elders, only to find themselves caught in a cosmic confrontation between the Devourer of Worlds and the personification of time and space—Eternity. As the two heralds witness this vast, ancient meeting, a new threat emerges from within the Kree Empire, where Nenora, once a Skrull spy, begins to forge her own path of power and defiance.
