Give heed to The Marvel Cosmic! (Part 2)


Welcome back folks to our final round-up of all things Marvel Cosmic! It's been great fun for me to dig back into my archives and my brain and reminisce about all the fun I had the first time around reading these comics.
So without any further rambling, lets get down to business and pick up where we left off, for anyone that missed the last one click HERE and check it out - the rest of you follow me:

(and as always the images I've used are as high-res as I could find so click to enjoy or download!)

6) GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY (ongoing 2008-2010)
Guardian Time b****es!!
With Nova over not too long after A:C and the events over and all, there was a void within with the lack of beautiful story-telling and artwork... but then DnA came to the rescue again! Picking up after the end of Conquest, Peter Quill - the man known as Star-Lord - brought together a most unlikely team: Rocket Raccoon, Mantis, Groot, Drax the Destroyer, Phyla-Vell (the new Quasar) and Gamora.
Together this rag-tag bunch were what he called The Guardians of the Galaxy and Star-Lords intention was to have a team that would be proactive in helping people and saving the galaxy instead of waiting for something like the Annihilation Wars to happen and simply reacting defensively. Its like they say: a good offense is the best defense!
They take up residence in a place called Knowhere which is (and I quote): "Located within what appears to be a severed head of a Celestial floating along The Rip (the extreme outer edge of all Spacetime with no specific physical location), Knowhere acts as a make-shift port of call and observatory of the End of the Universe for intergalactic travelers of all species and from all times." And the stations head of security is another new addition to the character list who has become a fast-favourite not just for me but for fans around the globe - Cosmo the Russian space-dog. Don't ask his back-story, he's a dog in a space suit but has power that I would say is approaching Jean-Grey and Cable's in some regards - he's a powerful telepath and and even more powerful telekinetic capable of knocking out two, count em TWO superteams with a single TK blast. Plus a whole load of other stuff, trust me - not a canine to mess with.
You go Cosmo!
