Marvel says the October release launches a wider cosmic arc by putting a returned legendary ring in play and centering a plot to seize the sentient Worldmind.

Overview

  • Marvel announced Nova: Return of the Rings #1 as an oversized Marvel's Voices one‑shot that will arrive in October with preorders open to comic shops.
  • The lead story casts Sam Alexander as the primary defender after one of the Ten Rings breaks containment and a new, unnamed wielder seeks control of Worldmind, a powerful sentient supercomputer tied to Nova lore.
  • Josh Trujillo is the lead writer with Rafael Loureiro on art and a main cover by Humberto Ramos, and the issue includes a bonus personal tale by Juan Ponce and Andy Pereira about Sam’s family and teen life.
