Guardians of the Galaxy

Guardians of the Galaxy are a fictional superhero team appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning formed the team from existing and previously unrelated characters created by a variety of writers and artists, with an initial roster of Star-Lord, Rocket Raccoon, Groot, Phyla-Vell, Gamora, Drax the Destroyer, and Adam Warlock.

These Guardians first appeared in Annihilation: Conquest #6 (April 2008). A feature film based on this team was released in 2014 to critical acclaim. Two sequels entitled, titled Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, were released in 2017 and 2023 respectively, and the team has also been featured in the Marvel Cinematic Universe films Avengers: Infinity War (2018), Avengers: Endgame (2019), and Thor: Love and Thunder (2022). This Guardians team is the second to operate under the name, following the original team created by Arnold Drake, Roy Thomas and Stan Lee in 1969.
