Of course, while Keith Giffen and J.M. DeMatteis are tackling Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman in Justice League 3000 over at DC, Dan Abnett will roll out Guardians 3000 next month, featuring the original Guardians of the Galaxy that many of our readers grew up with.

And today, Marvel Comics released a first look inside the title, featuring art by Gerardo Sandoval. You can check it out below — click on the double-page spread for a larger version.

Brought together by fate, Vance Astro, Yondu, Martinex, Starhawk and Charlie-27 battle to liberate an enslaved galaxy from the menace of the Badoon! But what happens when they discover something behind the Badoon…something even worse than they could’ve ever imagined?

The very future is in danger, and its only salvation rests in the hands of a ragtag group of bombastic freedom fighters! But to save the future, they must look to the past, and the discovery of a mysterious young girl named Geena Drake could hold the key to saving all of reality. If you thought the Marvel Universe was dangerous, just wait till you get a look at it in the 31st Century!

What does the future hold? And when the dust clears, will there be a future worth fighting for? Find out when Dan Abnett makes his triumphant return to the Guardians of the Galaxy for GUARDIANS 3000 #1!
