And I am, by no stretch of the imagination, a professional – or very good – at digitally coloring, but I enjoy doing it (for fun, relaxes my brain, and reminds me of my youth of coloring – except now it’s much cooler heroes and art!) – so I did this:
Recently you’ve mentioned or featured several members of the New Warriors (Nova, Night Thrasher, Dagger in Bloodhunt, as well as a new Namor title) and I’ve been making a meal of expectations out of the crumbs. With 90s revivalism in full swing, I couldn’t help but hope a new New Warriors series may be around the corner. However, now that you’ve moved to the X-Office, I assume they’re not under your purview anymore. What are the odds that you could/would champion the return of more stories around the classic (used loosely) team?
To which Tom replied:
Not really, Fish. It’s probably more the result of my having gotten the third NEW WARRIORS Omnibus recently, which reprinted most of the books that I edited in that line from back in the day. Seeing them again put them back into my mind afresh. I’ve wanted to do a NEW WARRIORS revival for some time, ever since I was prevented from doing one in the late 1990s. But the time has never seemed right for it at any point.

It would appear so – I am not going to go into the details, since Corey over at New Warriors Conundrum covered it so beautifully – so go read about it there!
Long and skinny of it – looks like they’re combining (?) Night Thrasher volume 2 (ran 21 issues) along with Nova volume 2 (ran 18 issues), along with quite a bit of New Warriors guest appearances!
Hopefully this gets these collected issues on Marvel Unlimited for ease of access for others to enjoy… and perhaps, with enough strong sales, who knows what the future of the New Warriors might be…

… despite only ever appearing once in New Warriors, they had an extensive history prior to showing up in the New Warriors, all tied to the Torpedo/Turbo armor.
