LoL, Star-Lord's face is like, "I've seen enough hentai to know where this is going!"

Haha, besides the tentacle rape that they're about to recieve, nice cover, overall. Love the retro, antique look to it.

Ok... This article was up earlier. Then it disappeared form the face of the Earth. Now, it's back, seemingly just uploaded (since it's on the top of the news), but all the coments are still here...


...I feel like I just stepped into the Twilight Zone!

Awesome variant! Love how bad ass Drax is in this. Even when he needs a helmet to live he still says no to a shirt

Nice variant. And SARA PICHELLI is the best artist at Marvel. But Guardians reek. I'll just torrent it maybe.

Definitely a rip off of the old EC comics sci-fi fantasy comics from the 40's

I like this run of GOTG, I really do. I just wish Star-Lord still had his mask/helmet!

Like the retro look to it. But Star Lord still needs his mask.

If Star-Lord didn't want a tentacle up his junk he shouldn't have worn that skirt.
He's just asking for it!

i'm still skeptical bout this one, marvel. unless, they make this as a stand-alone-in-their-own-universe type of deal i'd buy it, but to have it set in the same cinematic universe as the rest of the marvel's previous c.u. ...i dunno...specially (again) with the talking SPACE RACCOON...!!!

having Thor sharing the same movie reality with RDJ's Tony Stark is one thing..but a TALKING SPACE RACCOON..??!! that's a whole diff'rent TRIP altogether.

Oh my god! that's incredible! Holy moly! I can't believe my own eyes! $3.99?!? I know its been a while since I bought a new comic, but that's not the real price, is it?

"he Greatest GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY Cover Ever"

^^Didn't read the previous DnA run.

the DnA run is fantastic. Much better than this cash-grab version in which Bendis decided he didn't have to explain how Star-Lord is back from the dead or why he looks completely different. Probably friggin time-travel again...

Very cool. Classy and old school. Reminiscent of the classic old school pulp comics like Weird Science, Buck Rogers, old timey EC and such.

I still think that they have made Drax too much like Kratos, and that they need to go back to the classic Drax formula.
