Best part of this issue: Rocket Raccoon.
Apparently Marvel’s going to make a Guardians of the Galaxy movie and, actually, I can’t really imagine how that’ll turn out. The comics are always going to be a little more eccentric: their audience is pretty niche, and they’ve got nearly half a century’s worth of oft-conflicting continuities to reconcile. The MCU movies, though—those aren’t just for geeks, they’re for the General American Public.
IS THE GENERAL AMERICAN PUBLIC READY FOR A TALKING RACCOON

LOL LET’S BE DEFENSIVE AND SECRETIVE TOGETHER
For real though, that bit in that recent-ish Avengers storyline where Cap was so scandalized that Tony hadn’t been completely open with him about the Infinity Gems… and now Cap ~understands~ his motivations for non-disclosure urgh i have so many emotions

Picking this up after work! Granted, I miss Hawkeye’s dumb purple costume (remember when his costume was dumb and purple and wonderful, not the significantly more tasteful one from the movies?) and… um I ship Bucky/Widow but i can still be excited about this right
