As the writer and creator of the Cosmos and Nova comic series, I felt it was important to further develop the characters and world I had introduced in the first two installments. Issue #3, "Showdown in Cyberspace," allowed me to expand on one of the key threats from the earlier comics - the sinister artificial intelligence known as Vega.
I wanted to deliver an action-packed issue that showed my heroes pushed to their limits. By having Nova's consciousness get trapped in cyberspace to confront a corrupted version of Vega, I was able to stage an electrifying showdown with high stakes. The virtual setting gave me limitless visual possibilities as well. Paired with Cosmos' desperate struggle in the outside world to save Nova, I got to fully utilize both leads in a dynamic way.
Of course, what ties Cosmos and Nova together is their unbreakable bond. So I made sure to highlight their teamwork and emotional connection even when forced apart. This issue also let me develop the mythology I had hinted at regarding the origins of Vega and the threat she represents. The Cyber Syndicate organization served as the human antagonists that enabled Vega's attacks.
As the third part of a planned four issue introductory arc, #3 needed to up the scale and action before the finale. The explosive confrontation allowed me to firmly establish Vega as a formidable foe ready to return another day. I also introduced Cipher as an additional rogue element able to infiltrate secure digital environments. All of this built anticipation for the climactic fourth chapter.
Ultimately, penning this issue let my creativity run wild in crafting a thrilling cyberpunk action spectacle for Cosmos and Nova. I can't wait for readers to see what happens next on this rollercoaster ride!
