The Press Release:
It’s an exciting year for fans of Marvel Comics’ greatest cosmic heroes! In addition to the launch of an all-new comics run of GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY by Collin Kelly, Jackson Lanzing, and Kev Walker this April, the team will also star in their latest Marvel Cinematic Universe outing, Marvel Studios’ Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. The highly-anticipated film will feature the live-action debut of ADAM WARLOCK. One of the most iconic Marvel Comics characters yet to make the leap to film, Adam Warlock will be played by actor Will Poulter, and fans can see him in action in an all-new variant cover for GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY #1. This special, one-of-a-kind comic book cover uses a photo still from the upcoming film and will be available just before the movie hits theaters.
In Marvel comics, the character of Adam Warlock is among the most powerful and fascinating beings of the Marvel Universe. Created by scientists on earth to be the “perfect man,” he took to space where he became a protector of the Infinity Stones and played pivotal roles in classic sagas like Infinity Gauntlet and Infinity Watch. Fans everywhere are sure to fall in love with him all over again when he makes his way to the big screen later this year!

PiercingMetal Thoughts: As you might expect, I’m really excited for the new “Guardians of The Galaxy” film and am considering seeing it on the opening day since I did that for “Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania” and it worked out quite well for my schedule but back to the comic book. It’s great to find Adam Warlock joining the cinematic realm but I am not too sure what the new series will be like for the comic book. I’ve pointed out a few times that I really don’t purchase all the different variant covers but I do sometimes snag the first issues when I like the title. That being said I will be looking into the standard edition of the title when its placed on the racks of my local comic book shop. What do you readers think about this new variant cover? Will you be adding this to your collection and are you excited for the movie? Chime in down below in the comments section and I will see you next time. Stay safe out there.
