Rocket Raccoon and Groot #2

In this standout second issue of the 2016 series, Rocket Raccoon and Groot, written by Skottie Young and illustrated by Filipe Andrade, the duo’s journey takes a tense turn when Lord Rakzoon encounters a translator who finally understands Groot’s fragmented tale of searching for Rocket. But Rakzoon, skeptical and unimpressed, sees only a threat—and plans to eliminate Groot before the truth can be revealed. The cover, by Skottie Young, captures the moment with his signature whimsy and edge.
