Eventually, the Surfer pointed out to her the importance of life. He helped her to understand her powers and to learn from his experiences. Nova had a resentment for the Silver Surfer for leaving and betraying her master, but that eventually faded when Galactus had the Surfer assist her on missions. With the help of the Surfer and the Elders, they saved Galactus and returned the In-Betweener to his own realm. Nova's devotion to her master would not allow her to stand by and watch him lose, she then formed a plan to help him. He escaped and battled the In-Betweener and they proved equal in strength. But coming through the black hole was the In-Betweener, who sent the ailing Galactus into the hole himself and into another universe. With the direction of the Silver Surfer, she destroyed a star creating a black hole and helped to save Galactus. When the Elders of the Universe attempted to kill Galactus, Nova could not defend him on her own. Silver Surfer was easily able to save her and return her to Galactus unharmed. The Silver Surfer offered to help Galactus if he would free him from Earth's confinement and Galactus agreed. He did not, however, for he may have risked Nova's safety or even killed her. When she was kidnapped by the Skrulls in their attempt to have Galactus work for them and destroy Kree worlds, Galactus could have easily destroyed the planet the Skrulls had held her captive. She often thought that he may love her as well. She had a great fondness for Galactus almost to the point of love. She was willing to deliver any planet to Galactus, regardless of it's inhabitants. Nova understood Galactus' importance to the universe and was very faithful. Through most experiences she looked on in wonder as that of a child's and was very curious. Herald of Galactus Becoming a Herald of Galactus.Īs Galactus' herald Frankie was initially inexperienced. No longer Frankie Raye as she had once been known, she now came to be called Nova. ![]() With Galactus' touch, she gained the abilities needed to traverse space and successfully find the proper sustenance for her master. Galactus accepted, endowing Frankie with the Power Cosmic, (although less than other heralds, as Galactus' power was diminished). When Galactus needed to consume the Earth to survive, Frankie volunteered to become his next herald to explore space and have adventures as long as he spared the Earth. Doing some research, she discovered information about Norrin Radd and how he had become the Silver Surfer in order to save his planet. When Terrax, the herald of Galactus, came to Earth, Frankie learned of Galactus and she became curious. She also developed a stronger relationship with Johnny. The Fantastic Four offered to train her in the use of her powers and she even helped them on a few missions. After this, she began to distance herself from Johnny, despite his devotion and seriousness towards their relationship. Reed helped her learn the truth of her past. Frankie was repressed of her memory by her step-father about the accident that gave her super-powers, until one day it came to light. On their first date, Frankie learned that Johnny was the Human Torch when he had to save a man's life. She became an interpreter for the United Nations and she met Johnny Storm in a singles bar and later met up to go on a date. He even went as far as to make her have a phobia for fire and flames. He later created an invisible suit to suppress her powers. Professor Horton tried to protect Frankie and was able to hypnotically repress the memories of her accident and her powers. Creationįrankie Raye was created by Roy Thomas, George Perez and Joe Sinnott and first appeared in Fantastic Four #164 in November 1975. The chemicals caused her body to burst into flame, endowing her with the power to do so at will. While transporting the chemicals that allowed the Torch to become on fire, Frankie tripped and was doused in them. ![]() ![]() After hearing about a new Human Torch (Johnny Storm), Horton wanted to recreate a new android. Frankie Raye was just 14 when her step-father, Professor Horton, brought her with him to an abandoned warehouse where he kept the chemicals that gave the original Human Torch android ( Jim Hammond) his powers.
