New news, new thread.

Gone are Ben Grimm, Kitty Pryde and the other Earth-originating heroes who recently made the team their home, leaving Star-Lord as the last Terran standing, alongside Gamora, Rocket, a pint-sized Groot who can't seem to bulk up, and a now-pacifist Drax.

”When our story picks up, Groot is small and doesn't seem to be growing large," Duggan told Comic Book. ”We don't quite know why. The Guardians don't know why. The readers won't have very long to find that will be a problem moving forward, in a fun way, I hope. Drax is done destroying. Something has happened to him to that has made him leave his swords down. Drax is still Drax. He wants to destroy, he's just holding back for now. It's a fun turn for him as he struggles with pacifism like an alcoholic might struggle in a bar."

That Star Lord costume is garbage.

 

[Frozenprince]

Fucking hate that shit movie costume for Star Lord.

Editorial shoving baby Groot down our throats too. Ehhhhh.

Might be fun though, will pick up the first few.

So the comic is actually going to be good again. It seems marvel is learning and giving bendis less work.

I miss the old Star-Lord outfit.

 

[Sibersk Esto]

I think we all know why Groot is small, Duggan.

That isn't his movie costume at all.

As if this isn't to blatantly tie into the films. Real subtle.

I miss the helmet

 

[Briarios]

Ugh, those designs ... Miss the DnA stories, too.

Edit: and why the hell is Drax doing a bunny hop? Look at his hands ... What the what?

It's not Bendis. Take what you can get.

 

[whatsinaname]

I hope they murder kill it.

 

[Nudull]

Duggan's a solid choice. His Deadpool run has been pretty good.

 

[wenis]

Duggan eh? might actually pick this up then.

 

[jph139]

Definitely looks like they're leaning into the irreverent/goofy side. Not the return to cosmic greatness I was hoping for unfortunately.

 

[CrichtonKicks]

I think we all know why Groot is small, Duggan.

LOL. Seriously.

 

[Savitar]

Those designs are so fucking bad.

They're slowly trying to turn Gamora into how she looks film wise aren't they........and that's no good because the comic version of her is so much better.

 

[Phoenixazure]

I'm optomistic. His Nova run was very underrated and played a big role in making Sam Alexander an appealing character. This also gave him experience with Cosmic Marvel so its not like he is completely out of his element.

Bring it on

 

[super-famicom]

That art looks kinda bad.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

I miss the helmet

Yeah, that's what I miss the most.

That isn't his movie costume at all.

Has the same helmet and same guns.

 

[Future Foundation]

Costume looks like a blend between the movie costume and his older threads. It's not bad.

EDIT:

“When our story picks up, Groot is small and doesn’t seem to be growing large,” Duggan told Comic Book. “We don’t quite know why..."
