I have to admit, I originally passed this title up, as some of Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning's stories just don't do it for me. I kept reading reviews for the book, and a couple friends kept suggesting I pick it up. This weekend I went out and bought issues 1-5. I read them straight through. The book is awesome. One major thing it has going for it is the pencils by Paul Pelletier. I am really happy to see Paul on a monthly title again. i have been a fan of his art for years. I have some Titans original artwork by him. Anyways, DNA (Dan and Andy's nickname) have weaved a story featuring Adam Warlock, Drax the Destroyer, Gamora, Phyla-Vell (the new Quasar), Rocket Raccoon, Groot, Star-Lord, Mantis and a talking dog named Cosmo that I just can't get enough of. I read the original Guardians of the Galaxy a few years ago, and there is one character that shows up in this new volume from the old book, Vance Astro, who actually names this new team. Anyways, if you are looking for a good comic to pick up, check out Guardians of the Galaxy.
