Of Course Guardians Of The Galaxy Gets Its Own Disney Infinity Playset
You can stop now, Disney Infinity 2.0. We get it. You really want us to buy you, and you aren't afraid to recruit a team of intergalactic outlaws to make it happen.
The Only Guardians Of The Galaxy Action Figures I Need
Here it is. It doesn't matter how good or bad Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy does at the box office early next month. As long as I get my Hot Toys 1/6th scale figures of Rocket Raccoon and Groot, it's a win in my book.
The Guardians Of The Galaxy Game Doesn't Suffer Free-To-Pay Nonsense
A band of intergalactic outlaws with a noble cause, the Guardians of the Galaxy seem like the sort of group that doesn't take any crap. Perhaps that's why their mobile game doesn't come with any. This is a game that takes your money and runs.

If Bradley Cooper's take on Guardians of the Galaxy's psychopathic raccoon doesn't sell you on Marvel's next big comic book movie, then wait until you hear Vin Diesel utter his first "I am Groot."

Every year, on the first Saturday in May, comic book creators and publishers collaborate with comic book stores around the world to give out free books to once and future fans. It's not too late to participate.

If I may speak hyperbolically, there is nothing I want more in this life than a quality action figure of the Guardians of the Galaxy's anthropomorphic raccoon person. Judging by the showing at Toy Fair, this is going to be my year.

Sure, it's only all of two seconds from footage filmed off a screen from the audience of a comic-Con panel, but Rocket Raccoon is all of Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy I needed to see.

Between issues with early start and the official release being the week before E3 2013 craziness, I've not had much time to play Gazillion Entertainment's "Marvel Diablo" since my days in the beta, so when people have asked me over the past few weeks "Is it worth playing," my response has generally been "Oh my god I…

One's a photojournalist that's covered wars and zombie outbreaks. The other's a sentient raccoon that acts as the guardian of an entire quadrant of galactic real estate. Together they are the latest two characters joining the roster of Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3. What a crazy pair!

Fans combing over Capcom's website following the announcement of Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 have unearthed eight new character images that could very well be the rest of the update's new lineup. Frank West? Iron Fist? Rocket Raccoon!? Yes, please.
