Thomas Nelson (Thor & Thor: The Dark World) has added new artwork that he for James Gunn's Guardians of the Galaxy to his website. The new artwork includes concept art and storyboards for the hit blockbuster film.

Among the concept art, are designs for a character that didn't make the film, Lord Tantalus. In the comics Lord Tantalus is a member of the Deviant race, and was an experiemnt of the Dreaming Celestial. While talking with AMC News James Gunn had revealed that Tantalus was originally included in the script, but didn't make the cut, and the art below offers us our first look at how the character may have looked.

The storyboards also reveal a scene that was not featured in the film. The scene sees Gamora (Zoe Saldana) holding a blade to the neck of Drax the Destroyer (Dave Bautista) in what looks to be the bar on Knowhere feautured in the film.


















































 

 
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.


Guardians of the Galaxy stars Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, Bradley Cooper as the voice of Rocket, Vin Diesel as the voice of Groot, Lee Pace, Michael Rooker, Karen Gilian, Djimon Hounsou with John C. 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.

Beast looking guy. I like that shot of the whole gang.

Panda, you're not alone.
Maybe you blocked everyone.

btw, what does the Block button exactly do? Hide people from a thread or all threads? Only future comments or also past comments? How about their posts?

Right there with you on the art.

I would honestly love to see an animated series done in this style!

These designs are so much better. Especially Gamora's costume, in the film she looked like shit

I still can't believe it was good enough to earn a sequel...

I like Quill's and Gamora's looks here better. I like Rocket's too but I dug the Wolverine gear they went with too.

Hopefully they'll get these costumes in the sequel. Also what were they thinking when they gave Drax those tattoos?!

Oh well, still loved the movie!

Mercwitham0uth@ wish we got him in GOTG instead of Korath who looked nothing special ...but he would have been cgi so they went the cheaper way

I like that Marvel is considering using obscure characters like Tantalus.

Glad you posted, saw Nail post on Comicbook - though I did point out to him, the scene with Gamora holding the knife to Drax, think that's the prison scene and she DOES hold the knife to his neck, then drops the knives and he grabs her by the throat, think that's what they're showing above, ok to disagree though ;)

Thats how Drax and Gamora should have been like.
