“The Coming of the Comet”

November 1978 brings a charged encounter in The Man Called Nova #22, as the cover — penciled by Dave Cockrum and inked by Joe Rubinstein — fills the frame with the red-and-gold powerhouse known as the Comet blazing forward in a fury of energy bolts and dramatic lightning effects, while Nova streaks in behind him against a stormy sky. The cover copy asks the question on every reader's mind: is the Comet friend or foe? Diamondhead is also promised inside, making this an issue packed with colorful, kinetic conflict from a creative team that includes writer Marv Wolfman and artist Carmine Infantino.
