Diving head first into the thousands of back issues on our shelves, grabbing a random comic, writing what I think. Today’s issue:
Comic Book: Guardians Of The Galaxy #9 (8 in stock)
Our description mentions pencils by “Bong Dazo”, but sadly when I look inside no mention of Bong. I don’t actually know anything about Bong, but I wanted to see his art. Oh well.
For jumping in at an issue #9 this is actually pretty comprehensible. Prisoners in a Negative Zone prison are under siege by ugly baddies, someone named Space-Lord Star-Lord shows up, naked, and offers help from “The Guardians of the Galaxy”, some of the prisoners are skeptical (“The Guardians of the Galaxy? You just made that name up!”), people get beat up, a message gets sent, a cosmonaut dog beams the team in, and… end of episode.
So stuff happens, some of it even made sense to me, and there’s some funny bits. Decent, semi-thumbs up.

I love this title-
I read it in trades. It benefits from continued reading as does the other Abnett/Lanning cosmic title, Nova. LOVE the cosmonaut telepathic dog-GENIUS character. he’s got a mental russian accent! what’s not to love???Bong Dazo… He has an interesting style. It’s energetic and pops out at the reader, I’ll applaud him for that, but I’m not a fan of his anatomy. He takes liberties that I don’t agree with to get that energetic style. Also, his Rocket Raccoon is horrendous.
