The Guardians of the Galaxy are being featured on a new set of covers by the 2023 Class of Marvel’s Stormbreakers. We’ve reached the 55th anniversary of Guardians of the Galaxy, so that means it’s time for a new series from writers Collin Kelly and Jackson Lanzing, and artist Kev Walker, as well as the theatrical release of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 in May. Marvel’s band of cosmic superheroes are busy dealing with “Grootfall,” but some of their most iconic lineups from the last 55 years will be commemorated on Avengers homage covers. These moments include their original debut, the 2000s reinvention, and many more lineups fans will immediately recognize.
