“Auriez-vous oublié... les Exécuteurs”

In "Auriez-vous oublié... les Exécuteurs," Nova tracks down Mike Burley after catching him in the act, only to see him escape. When he’s ambushed by seemingly heroic figures who turn out to be S.H.I.E.L.D. Life Model Decoys, Nova learns he’s been recruited by Nick Fury to locate Burley—whose brother is being held captive. Written by Marv Wolfman and illustrated by Carmine Infantino with inks by Tom Palmer and colors by Irene Vartanoff, this 1979 issue features a striking cover by John Buscema and Joe Sinnott.
