Marvel's Guardians Of The Galaxy - Prelude (2014) - Plot & Excerpts
This is a collection of short comics released before the GotG movie to help acquaint audiences with the characters. Some of these comics showcase the modern incarnations of the characters, while others show the original appearances decades back.Some of these shorts were great, others were...straaaaaange.The modern shorts -including one about Nebula- were all great, beautiful. It was the older shorts I had problems with, just because they were all so odd. Definitely not comics from the Golden Age. It's interesting to see the origins of some of these characters, but I prefer their updated counterparts much more. There is a story written for the movie but it's Nebula's story and I just didn't care. And the beautiful art in the last chapter (the GotG .01 thing that was in the other graphic novel) is actually a tie in to the 2013 reboot.But the bulk of this are original character appearances in the 50s and 60s which really show you how comics have changed over the decades.Also, space clowns. Do I need to say more?I think it will disappoint people only interested in the movie and nothing else.

I read the first and last parts. It was okay. I look forward to the actual volume one of GotG

First. 2nd and last story were good. The rest was just filler
