Comic Drake, I would like to praise you for staying true to the comics. As a comic reader, I find it quite vexing that a lot of KZbin channels base their information around the movies and other adaptation works, which are still wonderful, but are focused on way too much, in my opinion. It is refreshing to watch a channel that always puts the source material first, unless otherwise specified. You are truly remarkable in that regard.

[@emeraldsunset6939]

original drax looks similar to Vision, minus the colors and such.

[@MaJuV]

In color scheme he looks more like Martian Manhunter.

[@johnraymond1861]

[@Imasuky]

Man all the super hero groups are just revolving doors of whoever they feel like sticking in the comic.

Pretty much. Some of the members are iconic to the team while some stick around for a cup of coffee

[@redflame300]

Duh

[@FerretJohn]

Pretty much the only Marvel team with a consistent membership is the Fantastic Four, they occasionally have their temporary fill-ins while one of the regulars go off for some reason, but right from the start it's always been the Four

[@Firebrand511]

It's thanks to the revolving door of writers who prefer some characters and team members over others.

[@araptorwearingahat7735]

... Because comics?

[@FerretJohn]

Short explanation, Cosmo was a dog sent up into space by the Russians during the early days of their space program. The Russians lost communications with the ship and thought it had malfunctioned and been destroyed, however what happened was the ship encountered some kind of random cosmic thing which sent it and Cosmo to Knowhere where he was mutated and given an advanced intelligence, enhanced longevity, and telepathy and served as Knowhere's security chief.

[@LordSnurdle]

The fact that the Guardians of the Galaxy has three spacified biblical representations: Star-Lord originally being Space Jesus, Mantis originally supposed to give birth to the most important and powerful being in the universe, and Adam Warlock being the CURRENT Space Jesus.

[@FerretJohn]

Update: Since the publishing of this video several others have come and gone through the roster Ant-Man (Scott Lang) was briefly a member Beta Ray Bill, an alien warrior with the powers of Thor, including his own uru hammer Cosmic Ghost Rider, aka Frank Castle from an alternate universe, who had become the Spirit of Vengeance to try and stop his universe's Thanos and Moondragon & Phyla-Vell from another alternate universe. The current line-up (as of July 2019) is Starlord, Groot (who can now talk), Gamora, Beta Ray Bill, and the alternate Moondragon and Phyla-Vell. Drax is currently dead (again) while Rocket's whereabouts are unknown

[@despicablepenguin]

Update Update: Beta Ray Bill is gone (for some reason. Never explained. At least from what I know of) Rocket is back (of course) Drax is back (a clone I guess tho or another version of him)

[@Devlerbat]

Star-lord did quit the team twice. Albeit both times were very brief. The first time was when it was revealed that Star-lord had Mantis brainwash the other members into joining the team. Most of the team quit and then so did Star-lord out of a belief that he wasn't the right leader for the team. The second time was when he was elected to be the leader of Spartax. Edit: I would like to add that I did not intend this as a slight against you as a comic fan. Its just a nitpick. You even mentioned those events even if you may have forgotten that part of them when you wrote Star-lord's part.

You definitely forgot to mention Nova, Nebula and Yondu who was also a member of the Guardians of the Galaxy Comics as well...Heck the Guardians adopted and trained Nova into the hero that he is especially Rocket who was more of a mentor to him!!

[@MaybeAnnatar]

Yondu was the original Guardians team (now known as Guardians 3000, the books were set on Earth 691 and not 616), not the 2008-now 616 Guardians team, the only Nova to OFFICIALLY join is Richard Rider in 2022, and Nebula joined the Dark Guardians in 2019. This video predates both the last two. The Nova you're thinking of is Sam Alexander and while yes he was trained by Rocket and Gamora, he was never officially a Guardian.
