Marvel are making a movie about the Guardians of the Galaxy, unfortunately not the Silver and Bronze Age version but an update from 2008. Whilst never stars, the Guardians did appear in some excellent Bronze Age comics. Re-reading the stories what struck me was the contrast between the Silver Age trappings of the debut tale from 1969 and the Bronze Age stylings of their next appearance in Marvel Two-in-One in 1974. Arnold Drake and Gene Colan brought us the origin tale in Marvel Super-Heroes #18 (January 1969).
