I like shaman is still in strange's magical cabal

[Phil]

Definitely.
Fairplay to Jason Aaron for elevating his status.

Since I haven't been following Civil War II beyond this site, something's just occurred to me that you all might already know is false:

Shaman (and Talisman?) will be brought in to Civil War by Dr Strange. Puck, Sasquatch, and Aurora will be brought in by Captain Marvel.

What if they're on opposite sides?

To be fair, that's all we've seen and I wouldn't be surprised if he's just in that one panel of that tie-in issue, before the in-fighting gets going, and not in the main series.

The panel is also re-presented in today's Deadpool #14(Three covers) where the team is given a name by Deadpool - The Avengers Of The Supernatural.

Shaman also appears at the Civil War II #1 party in today's Nova #8(Two covers)

Tell me more about the Nova Civil War issue?
How is it handled? Is it an issue of Civil War which happens to have Nova in it, or an issue of Nova set against the backdrop of Civil War II?

I'm debating whether or not to buy it; I generally skip crossover issues, but in the past, crossovers have been relatively non-intrusive in Nova.

Not sure how I feel about that team name. Guess it's not much different then Justice League Dark

[Phil]

It's not necessarily an official name, just what Deadpool refers to them as.
Strange only ever calls them 'Sorcerers'

It's better than the old 'Strange Bedfellows' though...

Tell me more about the Nova Civil War issue?
How is it handled? Is it an issue of Civil War which happens to have Nova in it, or an issue of Nova set against the backdrop of Civil War II?

I'd definitely say the latter.
Its very much about Nova's role in the team, and the world as a whole.
Only the first two splash pages are set during the battle and Nova is always the prime focus.

[Le Messor]

Thanks, Phil. I might get it after all!
