This is one of the first comics we picked up from our Local Comic Shop (LCS). We thought our son might like having it read to him, but he seemed disinterested. Totally not his fault, though. It would be hard for a three-year old (almost four) to follow. However, my husband and I really enjoy it! The movies are good, but you get so much more from a reoccurring comic. There's a lot of history and depth to the different characters.
Before reading this comic, I didn't know much about The Guardians of the Galaxy outside of what I had seen in the movies. I am slowly learning new things about each of them and it's fascinating! Did you know Drax is a pacifist now (or at least trying to be)? Gamora has been angry-killing her foes and seems to know something no one else does (her dreams have been wickedly weird). Rocket's history has always been a mystery to me. I know they touch on the subject during the movies, but what the hell happened to him and why? Star-Lord is as zany and obnoxious as ever (Chris Pratt was absolutely perfect for this). Groot is a tiny little thing that isn't behaving the way he should, and now everyone is starting to worry. We see what is happening, and I don't think anything good is going to come of it.
Did I forget anyone? Oh! There's a new-ish member to the team, but I'm not entirely sure what their role is going to be. Their problems seem to follow them even through time and space.
If you enjoyed the movies, I really think you'll like the comic. If you haven't seen the movies, still try the comic, haha. It's a great one to begin with, or even to add to your current collection.

Great first Guardian's comic! Just wish I didn't have to jump between vol 1 and 2 to get the full story, as the issues were split between the two!
