The new Guardians of the Galaxy ongoing series has just launched a couple of weeks ago, and it was all I expected it to be. Chief among my hopes for the new series is the inclusion of Star-Lord’s crew from his mini-series. We have Groot, Mantis, and the most awesome talking raccoon in the history of all time and space, Rocket Raccoon! Trust me, my friends, this book’s a keeper. If you’re not thinking of reading this book, YOU’RE INSANE! Now let me give you 5 mind-blowing reasons to read it:

1. It has a raccoon with a machine gun. A MACHINE GUN!

2. It has a raccoon who can think up of awesome team names.

3. It has a raccoon who gets drunk with his friends, one of whom is a talking tree who is royalty.

4. It has a raccoon who is a frickin’ demolitions expert.

5. It has a military tactical genius raccoon and a telepath telekinetic Russian cosmonaut dog. I am not shitting you.

Furthermore, it is worth noting that in the first issue, the team fought evil space priests inside a spaceship that runs on faith. Also, it was revealed that the team has established their base of operations inside the severed head of a Celestial. You have got to read this book! For real.

    Seriously, you guys. If he were a rabbit or a hamster, will he be able to carry a machine gun? It’s just common sense. Come on.
