“And So...the Sphinx!”

In "And So...the Sphinx!", the mystery deepens as the enigmatic Sphinx is finally revealed to be the Dreaded One that Diamondhead and Condor have long feared. Meanwhile, Rich's friends grow increasingly concerned as Caps vanishes without a trace, snatched away by the menacing Megaman. Written by Marv Wolfman and brought to life by Sal Buscema’s dynamic art and Frank Giacoia’s inks, this 1977 issue delivers suspense and intrigue in a 30-cent comic that’s a must-have for fans of early Nova. The cover by John Romita and Dave Cockrum captures the tension perfectly.
