Guardians of the Galaxy: New Guard #4

The Guardians of the Galaxy look decidedly earthbound on this Arthur Adams cover, where Star-Lord, Groot, Gamora, Rocket, Drax, and the Thing stand together amid a rubble-strewn landscape with construction equipment looming in the background — a fittingly gritty visual for a volume subtitled Grounded. Adams brings his characteristically energetic linework to the whole ensemble, giving each Guardian a distinct presence as birds scatter overhead. Collecting the New Guard era in one 2017 volume, this is a satisfying package for fans of the team's more down-to-earth (literally) adventures.
