6. Death

Writers: Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning
Artist: Paul Pelletier

Well, Drax killed everyone on Knowhere. Temporarily.

And it turns out that the Skrulls were actually good Skrulls who didn't support the invasion of Earth and were just trying to help people. So it’s all good, right? Nope. Drax tells the Guardians about Star-Lord and Mantis's brainwashing, and the entire field team – except for Rocket – quits.

Now that we've covered the plot, let’s move on to the specifics. Cosmo is a good boy again, so we're good on that front. Also, I'm surprised that they reveal Peter's manipulation to the rest of the team this early. They could have dragged it out for a while longer without giving it up, and I would have supported that.

Mantis's fears of the changing future (and what exactly is going on with Starhawk and Vance) make for a great plot line that feels mysterious and exciting. The book is finally starting to put down roots and settle in for the long haul, which is really nice. And now that we've wrapped up the first real arc, we can move on.

But who will the team members be? Just Star-Lord and Rocket? Or are we getting the band back together?

Quick side note: The follow-up on the Drax/Cammi stuff from Annihilation is much appreciated.
