:0 Iโ€™ve only vaguely heard about the nova corps through captain marvel but Iโ€™d be down to listen to u info dump if you wanted - charlie
so the nova corps. kinda fucked up? kinda lowkey-highkey culty? irrelevant. they wear funny hats
so like the earth 616 timeline (like. the one that most marvel things happen in) is the one im talkin abt bcs its just . neat and im half sure the 1610 one is pretty much the same but i havent looked into it yet.
so originally they were a militia/space exploration division from this planet called xandar, and honestly? being a corpsman kinda fucks? like you get this cool helmet and powers, which come from a super-computer generating it :D it's called the "nova force"
and corpsman isnt the only rank- theres millenian, denarian, centurion, and then the leader of the nova corps is called the centurion nova prime! the helmets (which are linked to the supercomputer (named worldmind)) also tell your rank! also the suit that comes with it lol.
Tumblr media
with your rank you also get more access to the nova force, with centurion nova prime pretty much having unlimited power, so long as worldmind is functional.
so at some point, the nova corps are all being briefed for a battle with some space bitches, right? but then said space bitches attack them. worldmind grants full access to the nova force to literally every officer, and yet space bitches still beat them out??? Embarrassing๐Ÿ™„
this one guy, richard rider, survives the (lovingly dubbed) annihilation wave, and worldmind is like "hey uh. bro. uh. im kinda dying and if i die then all xandarian like culture is going down with me and also all of the nova force" rider's like ":/......... fine ok" and lets worldmind live In His Fucking Brain.
so one night, while riders asleep, worldminds like ๐Ÿ˜ and recruits a bunch of new corpsmen. then worldmind starts recruiting more and rider's like "Hey Uh Dude Sending Untrained Corps into Battle Probably Isnt A Good Idea" and then worldminds like "sorry bestie i cant hear you im too busy lobotomizing a living planet <3" so he could make a new xandar (called nu-xandar which i find v funny). riders still kinda not the biggest fan of all of this and is kinda against putting worldmind into nu-xandar.
so worldminds like "LMFAO mans gone CRAZY because of the nova force. get him boys :)" so worldmind abandons rider back on earth after All of that (w/o his helmet which is what provides u w ur powers). Then rider finds out that worldmind was actually using mind control and manipulating people into not wanting to leave the nova corps.
then another war breaks out and the newest nova prime is taken. rider takes his place back as nova prime and trains the nova corps
stuff happens and the nova corps end up disbanding again because. i guess thats all they do? thats where sam alexander of earth 616 comes in :D (who i totally dont kin shut up).
sam's father, jesse, was a black nova/super nova, which were vigilante novas, they would kill normal nova corps members, steal their nova force, and also wore black helmets which look so cool btw. the black helmets are so that they can use unlimited nova force, unlike the normal helmets which give you your nova force depending on your rank. sam is the only one left.
so sam revives rider because. fuck you thats why
rider starts rebuilding the nova corps from scratch for like the 100th time now, and even gets planets to send in people to join! only that doesnt work bcs despite in theory being very powerful (and, when in suit, providing a kick-ass healing factor) the nova corps doesnt have a good track record with keeping people alive. so planets send in criminals mostly. :/
theres a fraternity of raptors. its really not important other than
1: nova corps for once doesnt get wiped out
2: the guardians of the galaxy become relevant to the nova corps
at some point sam alexander is trained by rocket and gamora :D
and, because the nova corps is just that bad at their jobs, they are once again disbanded, the only survivor being rider (AGAIN!) and also technically sam since hes not Really a nova corpsman hes a black nova
also theres this giant cat bitch named titus who used to be a black nova and really Really wants sam's helmet
