Old Man Quill #5

Few images capture the Guardians of the Galaxy's bond quite like this cover by John Tyler Christopher — a human chain of aging heroes dangling over a breathtaking alien mountain sunset, each clinging to the next for survival. A white-haired Star-Lord grips the cliff's edge at the top while a raccoon-like figure, a green-skinned companion, and an armored swordswoman hang below him, all held together by sheer stubbornness and trust. Ethan Sacks and Robert Gill's 2019 series continues to ask what it costs to be a Guardian when the galaxy has already moved on.
