On this episode Matt and special guest co-host Comicfoil Chad move faster than a fax as they discuss 1994's NOVA #1.

2026 marks the 50th anniversary of Nova, the Human Rocket which Chad has been joyously celebrating on BlueSky. Ever the opportunist, Matt decided to reach out to Chad and force him to talk about the edgier, scruffier, ponytailed 1994 version of Nova who complains about yogurt shops and yuppies.

But like all episodes of Does This Come in Chromium, the conversation rarely sticks to the issue at hand, and instead becomes a celebration of all eras of Nova (except the whole "Kid Nova" thing, that was dumb). It's always wonderful to hear someone talk about a character they truly love, and Chad does just that.

For his part, Matt gets stuck trying to figure out if DC's The Ray is the same as Nova. He thinks they might be the same character, but then again, all white guys with yellow bucket-helmets look the same to him.

Listen to the episode and have a SPANNGG-PLANGGing good time with us!
