TheGuardians of the Galaxymovie was a high risk, high reward situation for Marvel.
It worked.Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.
2opened big, and nowGuardians of the Galaxy 3is definitely happening.
Wal Rus was Rockets right hand, um, walrus in the raccoons pre-Guardians days.
Wal Rus is good in a tussle and is sure to turn up in Marvels newRocket Raccooncomic series.

Tusk guns, cmon now, are we going to pretend that isnt awesome?
Well, for the next film; why not make it a space badass with an ax?
Hell, Vince McMahon could make Terrax versus Drax the main event atWrestleManiaand Id buy a ticket.
Monark Starstalker
First Appearance: Marvel Premiere #32 (1976)
Why Monark Starstalker?
Well, primarily its because the dudes name is Monark Starstalker.
Again, I repeat,hes a blind space swashbuckler that uses a robot bird to see the universe.
What James Gunn can do with that…
47.
They wrongly worship Tony Stark with a religious fervor and use his inventions to spread terror throughout the galaxy.
Just a reminder that the leader of the Starks name is Taserface.
I just feel you should know that.
Doctor Minerva
First appearance Captain Marvel #50 (1977)
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.
When Mar-Vell spurned her advances, Minerva swore to take revenge on the Kree champion turned Earth hero.
In a future film, just replace Mar-Vell with Peter Quill and you have Guardians newest lethal lady.
Doctor Minerva would also be an amazing big bad in the coming Captain Marvel film with Brie Larson.
What better place for the wielder of the ultimate cosmic weapon than in the ultimate cosmic film franchise?
Plus, yknow, Draxs daughter.
So, tell that to Loki…Mangog was replacing Odin before it was cool.
Why not use a creature that once defeated Odin to enforce Thanos will?
Plus, we just need to see that awesome Jack Kirby design on the big screen.
In the comics, it was the Elders that once wielded the Infinity Gems.
Thanos took them down one by one to assemble the Infinity Gauntlet.
Many of the Elders would be perfect foils for the Guardians.
Imagine The Champion against Drax or the Gardener against Groot.
Its all a matter of TIME (get it?)
before Kang pulls the villain card in a future Avengers film.
Other than Ultron, Kang is probably the Avengers greatest adversary.
Who doesnt want to see the Marvel Cinematic Universe get timey wimey?
Well, it just doesnt seem right to keep Pip, the Troll out of the proceedings.
Hes the living embodiment of reality, a universe given sentience- as drawn by Steve Ditko.
This needs to happen.
They might be the Guardians of the Galaxy, but Eternityisthe Galaxy.
He should probably be voiced by Stan Lee or something.
First appearing in Thor, Firelord became a herald of Galactus, proving his cosmic badassery.
Rom was a toy designed by Parker Brothers and licensed by Marvel.
After Mantis joined the Avengers, she met and fell in love with the Swordsman.
Mantis inspired Swordsman to give up his villainous ways and the two became quite the item.
Well, until Swordsman died and was replaced by the spirit of a vegetable alien.
Meet Shocket Raccoon, a female counterpart to Rocket genetically engendered by The Collector to breed with Rocket.
And listen, Shocket is an excellent pilot and likes to make things go boom.
The Guardians can always use one more of those types.
The Supreme Intelligence is also the titleDen of GeekeditorMike Cecchiniforces his staff to refer to him as.
Just say three words: cinematicSecret Wars.
How are the Avengers and Guardians going to end up meeting?
The Celestials are unknowable space gods who travel the cosmos judging if planets are worthy of life.
Thumbs down means its all over.
This article is very long, hence the two pages….

A Guardians visit to Counter-Earth could certainly make for some intriguing sequel fodder.
Hes the brain child of the great Grant Morrison and the brilliant J.G.
Hes Marvel Boy, also known as Noh-Varr, and where he goes insane action follows.
Noh-Varr has the cheeky factor that would make him a perfect member of the Guardians.
Power Pack has a perfect Disney vibe.
It could cause Todd McFarlane to prolapse.
It could add another kickass woman to the Guardians ranks.
It would provide a tie to the world of Thor.
Recently, Marvel revealed that Angela is Thors sister.
If Marvel wants to tighten their franchises, a familial Asgardian bond would do just that.
Plus, Gamora needs a BFF to bust some heads with.
Magus
First Appearance: Strange Tales #178 (1975)
AfterGuardians Vol.
Who better than Warlocks evil twin, the fiendish Magus?
Other than Thanos, Magus was Warlocks greatest villain.
They dont come any badder than Magus, a villain that once made Thanos blink.
Its only fair that the character who helped form the new Guardians will eventually be included in a film.
Bug was created by the great Bill Mantlo, the same author who gave the world Rocket Raccoon.
Bug helped start it all, so cmon Marvel, give this swashbuckling sentient insect a break.
Since then, the Badoon have been scourges of both the regular Marvel Universe and the far flung future.
In fact, it was Korvac that brought the original Guardians and the Avengers together for the first time.
Killraven
First appearance: Amazing Adventures vol.
Of course you do, and thats just what a cinematic meeting between the Guardians and Killraven would provide.
Sounds, unlikely, but so did a single Guardians film at one point.
Phylla-Vell
First appearance: Captain Marvel (vol.
Phylla is the daughter of the original Captain Mar-Vell and a wielder of the Quantum bands of Quasar.
Marvel seems to like to do a slow burn with many of their characters.
Something about that cloaked figure and her skull visage standing next to Thanos is so iconic.
Or, the power could serve as a wild card in futureThororGuardiansfilms.
Especially if the Captain Universe powers chose a character like Rocket Raccoon.
He would be a hell of an enemy or ally for the Avengers.
So look out, a completely squirrel nuts crazy version of Superman could potentially be on the horizon.
Nikki is a highly agile, happy go lucky, flame headed warrior that can withstand intense heat.
And you know, fire hair is never not awesome.
In the comics, there would not be a Guardians of the Galaxy without Annihilus.
Annihilus is one of Marvels cosmic heavies and has held his own against every Marvel hero and heroic team.
Imagine Annihilus Swarm facing down the Guardians, the Nova Corps, and the Ravagers led by Sly Stallone.
Yeah, I just peed a little, too.
How many Kirby creations should populate the Marvel filmverse?
Probably all of them.
It would be a shame to forget about the Emperor of the Spartax.
Quasar creates light constructs using his Quantum Bands and is the galaxys chosen protector from all things cosmic.
After all, without Warlock there would have never been a Thanos!
And now, we should be getting Warlocks arrival sooner rather than later.
Oh, dare to dream!
