Declan Shalvey Moon Knight! OMG!!

It was already revealed though?

Yeah he said he couldn't help but put him and Daredevil on the cover

A comic about a character who can't talk.

I have this series on my Pull list. :)

Groot is kinda hard to spot on this cover. He fits in so well he is basically just another one of the random characters lined up here.

@jonny_anonymous: Yeah he's the man)

@edblank: but he can talk.

When you think that they reached the bottom and you found that they have a shovel.

@dagmar_merrill:

Yes, he can say: «I'm Groot.»

He can literally speak his name but that seems like it will get old FAST

This was revealed like a week or more ago...

@edblank said:

It worked well in Rocket Raccoon #5.

In Guardians 3000, Geena Drake has no problem understanding and communicating with Groot.

Point is, there's ways to translate for Groot and keep things interesting, and you can bet there will be the other Guardians, too. Perhaps not at the start of the series but later on for sure.

Kamala!!!

@ec2277: Squirrel Girl? Bottom? Nope. One Marvel's best books for me and many others. On top of good reviews.

Headless Elektra!

the cover looks really awesome,love the style of it and the look of the different characters!

This is the book I'm more excited for out of every other book been announced.

great cover

@noiru: You seem new, welcome to Comic Vine :)

Awesome cover.

You make excellent points about Groot's "speech". Nice point about Geena understanding him, & I loved his conversation & scientific interchange with Maximus in GOTG, with Maximus understanding him perfectly and recognizing Groot was a genius. Finding interesting ways of translation shouldn't be difficult for a good creative team, & as you said the other Guardians are bound to show up at some point, esp. Rocket. Sometimes motions, expressions & etc. can speak louder and clearer than words.

Oh yeah, I'm ready for it! All I have to say is:

Because

Some faces are funny like Black Widow with there is a dude on fire next to me and nobody is doing nothing to help him and i am also ingore it face or I am so dark and mysterious Rogue or Magik who is looking to the sky or Tempus with i always get bad hair on picture day or Hawkeye being left behind because of some other more popular characther.
