The second arc in particular, introducing Angela, is really fun and some great banter between the group. Once we get past that we're thrown into modern day with Quill bringing back the Guardians as a team to go stop Thanos. The idea is similar, what happens to Quill's mom, but in a darker nature. Unlike the movie, that is sad and tragic, this is sad and tragic but also brutal as shit. The opening shows Quill's origin and man is it not pretty. Then we get into the actual Guardians run. It's the hollow version of every other team up comic, just with way too many characters, and besides some decent dialogue here or there and snappy banter, this is made strictly for non-comic fans to read a comic every once in awhile. I have to be honest, this bored me to death. Guardians of the Galaxy by Brian Bendis is big blockbuster fun, both the good and bad side of that.īasically we start with an Avengers assemble storyline that half way through becomes a team up with the Guardians.
