In continuing our Robotech character journey, we take a look at a character that just gets my goat every time I see her.....and that makes her an awesome addition to the Robotech roll call. It's the cool but alluring, Nova Satori!
The key to a character in any story is to evoke emotion from the reader or viewer and Nova is definitely one to evoke them. For me she can be a real bitch!...lol!
Despite being a constant rival to Dana Sterling and cold as a truckload of ice, she is someone that fulfills her oath of duty to the GMP and I can't frown on that....
The novel adaptations of the Masters Saga bring out her more softer side in a flashback where she remembers an encounter with Claudia Grant in New Macross City. Kudos to Brian and Jim (Mckinney) on the generation bridge.
Nova gets fair time in the Expanded Universe too. "Beyond the Invid Storm" brings out her hard bones military side. She particularly enjoys to put her antagonists in the corner. (I don't know if Wolff wants to slug her or......well knowing the Colonel's, shall we say, "female adventures", it leaves you thinking if they are made for each other!)
She also has a role during the Invid occupation and it's aftermath in the Comics universe. Invid Aftermath is one of those titles that gets a lot of bashing from people but in the character sense, it just cements for me what I had felt about Nova......she'll do what it takes and to whoever it is to get the upper hand in a situation.
And YES....she is briefly mentioned in End of The Circle...
Call it a love hate thing for me....I just love to hate Nova and that for me makes her an awesome character!

We also cover the results of our last poll questions (Did Wolff prevail over Lando?) and a new batch for you to ponder on (Main gun or Quantum Torpedoes?)....
