New Marvel Cosmic Storytime: I want to dance with the Guardians 3000

I really couldn't think of a better subject.
So last week we read through all of Bendis' GotG and Humphries' Star-lord runs, and that was, well, not good. But we do know that, with the MCU Guardians and Thanos being prominent characters, all of the cosmic books received a push from Marvel.
So starting today, we're going to start with the non-core Guardians books (Guardians 3000, Guardians of Infinity and Guardians Team-up), before eventually moving to the solo books.
Buckle up for some Abnett action and some dynamic Sandoval art, with lots of familiar faces returning.

#1 #2 #3 #4 #5 and #6 Memelord v1 Memelord v2 by user Anon started a Starlin's Thanos series of storytimes, read the first one here

...

I posted the cover for the first issue, but we're actually starting reading from the backup story in GotG #14, acting as a 0 issue

Is Geena cute?

I know the art could be a dealbreaker for some of you here.
I don't like Sandoval much, but he is serviceable enough especially for action scenes

Of course I assume you know about Vance and his original history even before he became Justice in the present

Why is manipulating ice/firesuch an awesome power?

I liked this book a lot. It's a shame it had low sales. It's a shame Secret Wars was about to auto-cancel everything anyway.
Secret Wars Korvac Saga was pretty good though.
Guardians of Infinity wasn't so great unfortunately. Too much it wanted to do with too little time. It was only a few issues and every issue was just 16 pages.

Only the original core Guardians will be there at the start
If you're read Valentino, you'll know there is someone missing

I feel the same as you, except I felt that Abnett barely tried with GoI, he started wrapping up early and it shows.

He is the one who knows.
And man, I fucking love inspirational speeches addressed in a dire, dystopian situation

>But... the future refused to change.

Now, to the first issue proper

We'll soon discover what Geena's power is and how it works

Bendis might have done an entire arc with the Badoon but the whle thing never felt it had something specific to the Badoon t b h

Well, if you already read the previous story, this showcase feels like repetition enough

That guy looks like a powered Ghost Rider

Page 6 and we're already seen a lot and a mystery is being planted

Being Star-Lord is suffering.
don't worry though

The heavy inking chokes the more dynamic paneling idea into a mess

And all hell starts to break loose

Brutal

Meet the plot

I like how Google's captchas think I'm German today

What's better, the future talk in G3K or 2099?

...

Meet your aliens

>jaded, bitter Kallark
;_;

You could probably give some meta explanation about continuity too if yoy wanted

I wonder if Future Emperor Kallark stayed on the throne undisputed. There would be plenty of pretenders from the previous line

And let's do through this dance again

>when you think you'd be living Groundhog day but you're in Edge of Tomorrow

At least the Alex Ross covers are flawless

Except when Sandoval's off the art he starts doing covers instead

That's some recoil

>another showcase sequence

I like her attitude

...

Is Martinex a /fit/izen?

>the shady-looking guys are actually shady

Here's what I was talking about.
It's a mess of ink and colors, you can't perceive the different planes in the background

It nearly becomes abstract art if you look at it too closely.
Fucking heavy inking

I wonder what would Cap think of the shield being used to kill

>Abnett acnkowledging the Element Gun retcon

Man, poor Skrulls, always getting btfo

>Supreme Intelligence is now nice
It only took nearly total annihilation

Anyone reading? A bump maybe?

>I've checked

Martinex says that like it's something that happens a lot

Thanks for the recap

this conversation could've gone in a stupid direction, but didn't

But of course it couldn't go that smooth

...

Now's the turn for some delicious brown!

And no, it's not Star-lord.
Connection craps itself from time to time, so have patience

But does she grab a brush and put a little make up?

>It is vital that
Why does hearing this bring me joy?

D'aawww

I really like how "Deneb" sounds

>Yondu fell for the self-improvement meme

Yondu has a great design
MCU Yondu works more if you're aware of how he looks in the comics otherwise it's nothing special

Which makes what Humphries did to him even more criminal

AND A REAL HUMAN BEAN

>surprised Eye of Sauron

Imagine if Clint was Centaurian

>page 9
I'd really appreciate a bump if someone is reading

...

How does he know he's not signaling?

This is how /m/ would do it

>Tony Stark, saint patron of future machines
I wonder if they rever Pym as the devil or something

...

Luckily help is on the way

>Sandoval's open mouths
Eugh.

Good cosmic. Shame about the art though.

So, does Geena have a type?

Thanks for the bump, I was just about to reset the router and delete my browsing history

If you really hate the art, two more issues before it switches

Oh, and I repeat, bumps are appreciated

Based Vance
And I really liked that intro

>Valentino?

>no Firestar
That's a shame

Can you imagine a bigger "well, shit"?

Is it gay to kinda want to fug femaleHawk?

...

...

>came in through a hull breach
>air didn't immediately get pushed away

>robots with massive neck veins

Already a better Star-lord than Bendis-Lord

What makes Geena think he'd fall for her?

Can we switch King Peter with Memelord?

Stark is an engineer before everything else
And that is efficient

...

EVEN NOW THERE IS WAIFU LEFT IN MAN

>page 6 again
I assume no one's reading then? There are quite some storytime threads up at the moment

...

You can probably guess who this is

What did temporal anomalies do to her breasts?

Starting in the middle of some badly panned out action
