GotG is gonna be a tough sell. They're trying very, very hard to make the team appeal to a new audience, and right now it feels a bit too much like infomercial-esque hype. (But wait, there's more! If you order within the next five minutes, we'll throw in Iron Man free of charge. This special "Tony Stark learns about the space clap" edition** won't be available for long, so act now!)

Maybe Marvel actually will deliver something worth the old I liked it before it was cool (http://www.bleedingcool.com/2013/01/31/bendis-says-buy-guardians-of-the-galay-for-bragging-rights/) line. Updating the style and costumes and roster could just as easily backfire with the cult following Guardians does have, though. They're running the risk of hearing, I liked it back when it was still good.


**Iron Man #6, I AM DISAPPOINT.
