Night Thrasher brought them together to help in his war on crime. To help Nova get his powers back, Night Thrasher threw him off of a roof!

3. "New Warriors" numbers 1 - 25 were drawn by which artist?

Answer: Mark Bagley

All of these artists have drawn "Spider-Man", but Mark Bagley was the one who also drew the first 25 issues of "The New Warriors".

4. The New Warriors are menaced throughout this series by one of Nova's old villains, who is he or she?

Answer: The Sphinx

The Sphinx has been a major villain in the life of Nova. Terrax although a major level villain, was more a villain for the Silver Surfer and Fantastic Four. Punisher first appeared as an antagonist for Spider-Man, and the Juggernaut was a recurring X-Men villain.

5. What is Speedball's secret identity?

Answer: Robbie Baldwin

Richard Rider is Nova, Namorita Prentiss' super hero name is Namorita (wow!), and Vance Astrovik is Marvel Boy/Justice.

6. Namorita had a romantic involvement with which hero?

Answer: Nova

Nova and Nita had a love/hate relationship going almost from the start; Night Thrasher was at one point involved with Silhouette. Marvel Boy/Justice was involved with Firestar; and Speedball was forever chasing after the unattached female members of the team.

7. Which of these characters has NEVER been a member of the New Warriors?

Answer: Spider-Man

The correct answer is Spider-Man. Although Spidey hasn't been a member, at one point his clone, the Scarlet Spider, was.

Answer: Justice & Firestar

Justica and Firestar helped out the Avengers, and were initially offered Reserve Member status. This was soon changed to Active Status, when some of the Avengers decided to take a leave of absence.

9. Namorita turned blue and changed her name to what?

Answer: Kymaera

She turned blue due to a problem in her genetic make-up as she was a clone. If any of you picked "Dolphin Girl" you should be ashamed of yourselves!

Answer: Night Thrasher, Nova, Marvel Boy & Firestar

Originally Night Thrasher wanted an approximation of the Fantastic Four; but the group was joined by Speedball and Namorita in their first fight against Terrax in "New Warriors" number 1.
