SDCC '13 Marvel Studios: Guardians of the Galaxy

One of my highlights to come out of San Diego, was the prop photos and teases for Guardians of the Galaxy. Guardians of the Galaxy was always a title I wanted to read but when I got into comics it was always hard to find a place to jump on, and at that time Civil War had just finished and the only titles I was really following were Mighty Avengers and Avengers Initiative.

But with Marvel NOW came my opportunity with Brian Bendis' and Steve McNiven's revival of the title and I am loving it. Although we still have Thor: The Dark World and Captain America: Winter Soldier to be released, Guardians is the next film to come from Marvel Studios that I just can not wait for, and after the Cast announcements and the promotional prop set ups at San Diego I will be counting down the next 12 months eagerly or at least till that first trailer is released, and with filming having started the Monday after SDCC we may get our first trailer before Thor or more likely Captain America. Check out some concept art below; I'll attach a link for a higher resolution copy, take note that this is a Nova Corps "Mug Shot" of sorts.

And have no fear Star Lord will have his helmet, we got a array of props and weapons for the film and also our first look at members of the Nova Corps who have been confirmed to have a role in this film. Could this spark yet another outlet for Sam Alexander, with his Marvel NOW Nova title and first appearing in the Disney Marvel Ultimate Spider-Man animated TV series. For looks at the props and other pics check them out below;
