If you are needing a Guardians of the Galaxy fix, then you'll want to learn Japanese ASAP. The Marvel team just got a manga spinoff, and it features an interesting tie-in with Thor: The Dark World.
Kohei Uchida finally launched the first chapter of Guardians of the Galaxy: Galaxy Rush this week. The series is based on James Gunn's films, and fans can read up on the series with DeNa's Manga Box app. Sadly, the series is only available in Japanese, but fans will surely provided translations sooner rather than later.
Guardians of the Galaxy: Galaxy Rush is set after the franchise's second film. The original story follows the team as they enter a content called Galaxy Rush, a battle-royale style race that takes place on Vanaheim. Rocket and Groot appear to the be manga's main players as of right now, but the ensemble team will get their chance to shine as the series continues.
If the name Vanaheim sounds familiar to you, then you have most definitely seen Thor: The Dark World. The MCU introduced the world in the Thor sequel. As one of the Nine Realms, Vanaheim is home to the Vanir, but it was invaded by the Marauders not too long ago. Thor and his Asgardian army were sent to free the wooded planet.
Thor: The Dark World didn't get a lot of time to explore Vanaheim, so fans can look forward to the Guardians of the Galaxy manga doing so now. Fans are already keeping their eyes open for any hidden easter eggs, so if any readers spots Hogun in the manga, be sure to let the Marvel fandom know.
Of course, Guardians of the Galaxy isn't the first Marvel franchise to get a manga. Marvel Comics even had the Marvel Mangaverse at one point which featured heroes like the Hulk, Iron Man, Namor, and more.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is now available on Digital HD, Blu-ray, and DVD. Give the film your personal rating below!
