With a new job at an aquarium as cover, he strikes again, but this time, Nova is ready. Written by Stan Lee and Dick Ayers, with art by Dick Ayers and colors by Stan Goldberg, the issue delivers a tense showdown that pits vigilance against a familiar foe. The cover by Jean Frisano captures the moment’s intensity.
