After reading this issue, I immediately thought of ways to use it in my clinical work. Groot looking for the best in people is something that I think many clients may need in order to work through depression or challenge social anxiety. This issue of Groot, and the series overall, can be a helpful way to explore how to elicit positive emotions, manage a sense of grief or regret, and how to look for the best in ourselves or others. For this reason alone, I recommend this issue. Read Full Review

ComicList - Brandon Borzelli Sep 5, 2015

Groot is a story about a bond between friends. The comic book is a humor book but it is not done in an over-the-top way that you might expect from Deadpool. Instead the book has sweetness to it as Groot's innocence mixes so well with the cranky Rocket Raccoon. The comic has a simple rescue plot at work but the execution of the book is fantastic as Rocket narrates his feelings on Groot as Groot goes through the steps to round up a team and attempt his rescue of Rocket. The comic book is a fantastic read and may be the most charming comic book I've read all year. I highly recommend picking this up. Read Full Review
