Tis true.
Honestly I'm not versed enough in either character to know for sure, but again I'll say based on what I know (which is limited at best), Nova wins. Though I could easily be swayed either way.
well, to name a couple of his better feats he's drained and controlled the energy from a star (a feat even ss couldn't manage very well), he's also battled ss evenly (and i think was actually slightly ahead in the fight), replicated the energy of the soul gem (i think it was the soul gem. if not it was one of the others....) defeated the abstract anomaly, (very briefly) stalemated galactus and defeated a watcher. his battle against death urge was also a classic. his shields are pretty legendary as is his energy absorption. not sure if nova could return from a quantum jump either. classic wendall had some pretty awesome feats in the days of his series. i think he became a little...lessened in the days before he died, but like i said, earlier on he was a beast.
so, what has nova done to match that? (there are scans for all the above, i'm just REALLY lazy....)

well, at least you (sort of) gave a reason (though not a very logical one--not like quasar's shields have ever withstood any cl100 poundings before or his constructs harmed cl100 beings before, amirite....?). i'm still waiting for some feats from nova to convince me that rider takes it. i'm open to the idea, but all i see here are-nova wins. feats would be nice.

Zop you are fast becoming the poster that I'd most like to hug 😍
To Quasar's credit he has borrowed some of Richard's power before in TI. It's a one off thing, but he has done it.

Off the top of my head, two big feats are:
Being next to Galactus, along with his "Herald my Rage" temper tantrum that covered multiple star systems, and surviving (As did Annihilus)
Charging head first into Sphinx using two Ka Stones (Universe altering level power)
So two high end feats, but there's also Super Nova to take into consideration, who Quasar had trouble handling. Richard has that level of power at his disposal, but Worldmind regulates/inhibits his power levels, so he doesn't go insane like SN did. But he could tap it, when absolutely needed..

There's also the fact that he survived against Annihilus who defeated Quasar with far greater ease. IMO Quasar does better against certain opponents than Nova would, but the same notion can be turned around and said for Nova. With that said Nova gets my vote.

Or the time 4 Shi'ar Imperial Guard (ranging from street level to low meta) broke through Quasar's quantum dome?
Or the time another Shi'ar guardsman, Neutron, was making a fool of both Quasar AND Her?
Quasar has nice highs : the Watcher fight, the Galactus eye blast (need context to that one though), and the Infinity War dome but he has horrendous lows. His "average" loses to Nova Prime (especially since his Q-bands have no direct control over gravity like they do the EM spectrum).

Things like this is why I love KMC. I get to see all the romances. Better than tv my friends keep up the good work.

Uhmm that's not really impressive considering he barely escaped with his life and was about to suffer the same fate as quasar.
