Rocket Racoon #1
Skottie Young (w), (a)
Marvel Comics

Liz says: I can think of few creators more qualified to craft the adventures of everyone’s favourite galaxy-guarding space raccoon than Skottie Young. It looks amazing; that’s pretty much a given. The fact that it’s a total blast is practically just icing on the cake. Working together with brilliant colorist Jean-Francois Beaulieu, Young’s story is wildly energetic, engrossing and hilarious, with a great setup for the next issue. If you’ve never read a story featuring Rocket Racoon, the time to do it is now. With the Guardians of the Galaxy film coming out in a few weeks, you’ll want to be ahead of the curve and inevitable tsunami of Rocket love. Get to know him here first!
