Adam Warlock is definitely badass... It's complicated. He was actually (kinda) shown in the previous GotG movie, here...

That's supposedly Adam Warlock's cocoon. But there's a bunch of licensing rights involved with him, so it's really not determined whether they can use him, as far as I've heard. Check out his history: http://marvel.com/universe/Warlock,_Adam

One of my favorite pages from Infinity Gauntlet #3, Warlock is riding Surfer's board with him...

If I remember right his license issues are due to the fact that his first appearance was in a Fantastic Four series? Sadly, many of the characters from the Infinity Saga are tied up for the same reason. Going to be very disappointed not to see Galactus and Silver Surfer. :(

Read yourself into a nerd coma....

Yeah, Galactus and Surfer were staples of the Infinity Gauntlet/Wars series. It will suck for the little nerd kid in me to not see them mix up with Thanos on the big screen.

I threw Warlock out as a guess because his cocoon is seen in the Collector's lair. I think it was next to Cosmo and a Dark Elf. /nerd


I always dug the cosmic storylines Marvel put out. I'm really hoping the abbreviated movies coming out do them justice.

I hope so too, but I have pretty low expectations. While I really enjoyed the Civil War movie, it was a very pale imitation of a copy of a shadow of the original storyline. I'm sure Infinity will be good movies, but there's pretty much no way they could adapt all that content into just a few hours.

I loved how they put in the little easter egg of Rocket and Cosmo instantly not liking each other. To a casual fan it just looks like one animal growling at another one but in the comics they were always insulting each other.

Still pretty much fantastic for a comic book sequel.

I have hope after the Spiderman agreement.

Surfer is tied to the Fan4Stick rights so I can't imagine it taking much to pry that away. That property is ****ing worthless and only has any value because they know Disney/Marvel want it...

Fantastic 4 also have the rights to Annihilus, another great villain (not to mention Dr. Doom). The value of the F4 lies in the villains, not the heroes.

Dr. Doom deserves a proper Marvel representation...
