Rated T+
Overall, this issue had great pacing to it and while it didn't handle it's balancing of characters as well as it usually does, it doesn't take away from the fact that right now Guardians of the Galaxy is one of Marvel's best books right now. Add to that a shocking surprise reveal at the end of the issue, Guardians of the Galaxy #147 leaves Readers in high anticipation for next Month's issue. Read Full Review
Guardians of the Galaxy once again demonstrates Gerry Duggan's ability to use Marvel's continuity to his own advantage. Instead of ignoring the previous stories, Duggan is able to skillfully explain why Star-Lord didn't know Nova was alive. Read Full Review
Even with huge stakes, the Guardians tackle things with their trademark humor. Consistently enjoyable. Read Full Review
Duggan and company continue to repopulate and prioritize the outer space of the 616 universe. The quest for infinity stones has barely begun, but already this feels like we're scratching the surface of a classic Marvel space epic. Duggan also introduced a twist on the infinity stone discovered this issue, which is the first of its kind. Read Full Review
Guardians of the Galaxy #147 continues to show promise in the future of Gerry Duggans run on the team. It is a solid read, even if it isnt the most exciting of chapters. It earns a recommendation, and you should read it. Read Full Review
The reuniting of Richard And Peter gave this a buddy cop feel that I thought was pretty great. It made me want to see Richard make his way into the Guardians films even more. Another fun and surprising relationship is Gamora and Scott Lang as teammates in the field. The interactions are delightful. The end reveal also had me saying out loud "What is going on with that?" as I am sure Duggan intended. While the All New Guardians of the Galaxy start felt stronger, the direction the title is taking is still exciting. The art does a great job of scale and direction. The action displayed nicely. Some of the character designs did not grab me particularly in the menace of the hoard attacking Scott and Gamora, but still worked. The only thing that Imore
Gamora and Ant-Man come home safe, Peter Quill and Rich Rider kiss and make up, and awesome pregnant Nova Eve Bakian has a Big Secret. This issue surfs through these three plot points with sketchy, speedy visuals and a little bit of cute dialogue, but the polish of Gerry Duggan's words is terribly rough. This book opens with a line that I can't believe was proofread by a competent editor, and a few similar clunkers pop up throughout the book. Mr. Duggan might just be overstretched with all his double-shipping commitments, and he's getting ☠☠☠☠all in the way of editorial support. Fast and rough though it is, this issue tells an impeccably cool story.
Was a good read compared to the last issue. Richard Rider is back and finally the reveal at the end atleast made me remember something from this book. Overall a solid read.
I liked this issue better than the last, as the story was quickly paced and interesting. I found the art to be uneven, though; I like some of To's images, like the splash of Ant Man, but in most panels the figures are small, the background emphasized. The art was so good during the "All-New Guardians of the Galaxy," this is a pretty big comedown for me. I'm kind of on the fence on this series.
