Nova #1 CGC 9.0 Copy Taking Bids At Heritage Auctions

Published Mon, 21 Mar 2022 07:32:11 -0500

Nova keys have so much room to grow in the comics market now is the time to buy. It is almost guaranteed that the character will debut sooner rather than later, especially since the corps have already made their debut in the Guardians of the Galaxy films. The question is, will it be Richard Rider or Sam Alexander? My money is on Rider, but you never know. If I am right, then Nova #1 from 1976, always a key anyway, will become a mega-key. Taking bids at Heritage Auctions right now is a CGC 9.0 copy of the book, and it is already at $135 as of this writing, a steal. Check out the copy below.
