Well This is my First post. I just want to say I have read the prolongs and everything I can get my hands on leading up to this point. From Thanos to Drax to The Annihilation to the Conquest all the way to issue 13 of Nova I really enjoy the revamp of the galactic cast of heroes. Thank you Abnett and Lanning for the great story's. I just picked up the New Guardians of the Galaxy and it was great. I love the decision to make the new base in Knowhere. I really liked Cosmo I am glad he is back. The Issue was goofy in a good way, full of pop culture references like EBAY. I do have one complaint, sort of... I dont understand what happend with the cover. I have the promo poster with Quazar with no face and Adam Warlock with Wraiths head. I thought it was going to be Wraith for a long time until I realized it was Adams costume. The addition of Quazars head looks horrible. This is one other thing. Its about the color, I like everything but Gamora. on the cover all the costumes are red a black. So I guess Gamora was changed, but Gamora has always been yellow and green. I feel this takes alot away from the character. She needs to be yellow and green. In the flashbacks of this first issue she is yellow and green. I just really hate the color change.
If anyone can explane the cover change that would be nice. That is all...
