    Marvel is quite foolish to not let DnA to not to be involved with the Guardians of the Galaxy movie. I mean they along with Jim Starlin, made all this possible.

    Thumbs up

    I love DnA's "space work"!!!

    Their era of LOSH was the only one I've liked, before or since. The assorted Marvel cosmic stuff is also aces in my book.

    Hope they do some more space-opera saga stuff one day, regardless of the company...

    Involved in what way? None of them have ever written a movie before, as far as I know...

    I will always be grateful to DnA for rescuing the Legion after years and years of Archie awfulness. Their run allowed me to enjoy my favorite super-team again after what had felt like a lifetime. And because of their Legion work, I've been following their stuff wherever they go.

    Marvel's Cosmic stuff they did was my favorite stuff I have ever read. I am eternally grateful that they made such an amazing comic book dynasty with Marvel's cosmic stuff. Their stuff kind of has a closed book, but I really wish it continued where it left off. Unfortunately, Marvel feels like they need to ruin everything established by Abnett and Lanning.
    They need to get on something like that again.

    Ohhh. Ugh. Unfortunately, that was the weakest episode of the season, IMO.

    Gotta agree with Grph. It was the weakest episode of the season.

    Have you seen Powerless? That episode is just GOD AWFUL. Like, the most boring thing to sit through!

    The GOTG episode was very good!

    Agreed. Star-Lord and Rocket were the highlights.

    Poor Jim Starlin, really. Don't get me wrong: the GotG movie owes its DNA to DnA, but for the guy who created so much of this stuff to not get a nod (particularly on Thanos) is too bad. Maybe they'll come around and he'll get a cameo like Stan Lee.

    I hope they explain how Thanos and Star-Lord are back. Did I miss something?
