The entire galaxy is a mess. Warring empires and cosmic terrorists plague every corner. Someone has to rise above it all and fight for those who have no one to fight for them. A group of misfits–DRAX THE DESTROYER, GAMORA, ROCKET RACCOON, GROOT, BEN GRIMM, a.k.a. THE THING and FLASH THOMPSON, a.k.a. VENOM— joined together under the leadship of PETER QUILL, a.k.a. STAR-LORD. They serve a higher cause as the… GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY.

An old teammate, Captain Marvel, called the Guardians to help her in the second super hero civil war on Earth. In a fierce clash, the Guardians lost their ship. As they struggled with the disappointment that they may be stuck on Earth, Gamora overheard two S.H.I.L.D. agents discussing her estranged father: the mad titan, Thanos.

They said he was on Earth–incarcerated in the Triskelion.
