With Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy currently the "#1 movie in the universe," concept artists who worked on the film in its early days have showcased their contributions. One is Goran Bukvic, whose work features weapons that belong to the Badoon, the secondary villain alien race that was replaced by the Sakaaran in the film due to 20th Century Fox holding their rights. Also, previously-seen concept art by artist Stephan Martiniere has revealed an environment that also didn't appear in Guardians. As Slash Film has pointed out and explained, Martiniere's art piece features the planet Spartoi, which is home to Star-Lord's father J'son in the Marvel Comics. Check it out below!

Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy expands the Marvel Cinematic Universe into the cosmos, where brash adventurer Peter Quill finds himself the object of an unrelenting bounty hunt after stealing a mysterious orb coveted by Ronan, a powerful villain with ambitions that threaten the entire universe. To evade the ever-persistent Ronan, Quill is forced into an uneasy truce with a quartet of disparate misfits–Rocket, a gun-toting raccoon, Groot, a tree-like humanoid, the deadly and enigmatic Gamora and the revenge-driven Drax the Destroyer. But when Peter discovers the true power of the orb and the menace it poses to the cosmos, he must do his best to rally his ragtag rivals for a last, desperate stand - with the galaxy’s fate in the balance.

Reilly, Glenn Close as Commander Rael and Benicio del Toro as The Collector. Distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures, the film opens August 1, 2014
