Contents. Publication history recounted, 'Guardians of the Galaxy' started out as an idea of mine: about super-guerrillas fighting against Russians and Red Chinese who had taken over and divided the USA. I got a sort of general approval out of editor-in-chief (I think), and gave the idea to, since I had not time to write and research it. Arnold went in for a conference with Stan, and Stan (maybe Arnold, too) decided to change it to an interplanetary situation.

All the characters and situations in Guardians were created by Arnold and/or Stan. The team first appeared in the partial reprint title Marvel Super-Heroes with issue #18 (Jan. 1969), written by Arnold Drake and.

Despite strong sales on this issue, the Guardians of the Galaxy would not appear again for over five years, in #4–5 (July–Sept. The story's writer, liked the team enough to use them again in #5 and Defenders #26–29 (July–Nov. In each case, other heroes such as, the, and the Defenders aid them in their war against the alien, necessitating the liberal use of time travel in these stories. The Guardians were finally given their own series, starting with issue #3 (Feb. Steve Gerber, still handling the writing chores, reflected, 'Most of the stories I was scripting were set in the present. I wanted to do something that combined the standard superhero elements with something a little different, so that I could give my imagination a bit more play. We had redesign the costumes, we created a new starship for them to pilot, and we revised the premise of the strip, so that they were no longer fighting the Badoon on Earth, and sent them off amongst the stars.'

Gerber left the series after seven issues, leaving to take over with Marvel Presents #10. The series was cancelled shortly afterwards due to poor sales, with the final issue being #12 (August 1977). This was followed by a series of appearances in Annual #6 (1977), #167–177 (Jan.–Nov.

1978) and #181 (March 1979), Ms. Marvel #23, #86 (Oct.

1979), and #61-#63 & #69 (Nov. Marvel Two-in-One #69 drastically changed the Guardians of the Galaxy story; due to changes made to the past of one of the members, the future which the Guardians of the Galaxy come from and the mainstream Marvel Universe are permanently separated, becoming alternate timelines to each other. After this, the Guardians of the Galaxy were absent from published stories for over a decade. In 1989, Marvel editor-in-chief decided to revive the Guardians of the Galaxy in order to cash in on the soaring popularity of the TV series.

DeFalco worked out a series concept using a new team of Guardians, but when he saw a series proposal for the original team that had coincidentally been working on at the same time, he green lit Valentino's idea instead. The Guardians' first self-titled comic launched in June 1990 and ran for 62 issues. This series was initially written and illustrated by Valentino, who deliberately gave it an action-oriented, 'fun' feel that stood out from the typical 'grim 'n' gritty' comics of the 1990s. Though Valentino had plotted the series ahead as far as issue #50, his run was cut short when he co-founded. Having taken on two new series and the foundation of a publication company, Valentino asked editor Craig Anderson if he could switch to just writing Guardians of the Galaxy, and in response Anderson dismissed him from the series. With issue #29 (Oct.

1992) commenced writing the title, and continued until its cancellation with issue #62 (July 1995). According to Kevin West, who became the penciller with issue #30 (Nov. 1992), he and Gallagher worked together closely on the series, employing the of creation, and soon became good friends. A spin-off four-issue, Galactic Guardians (July–Oct. 1994), also by Gallagher and West, appeared during this time. West explained why he did not draw the final issue of Guardians of the Galaxy: 'When I heard we were getting the hook, I naturally started looking for a new job.

There was a hold-up getting the Guardians plot finished so by the time I got it, I had to pass because I had a Malibu deadline to meet. Despite any minor qualms I had, I really did enjoy working on the series.' Was published in May 2008, written by and. The title, set in a different timeline, features a new team, drawn from participants in the storyline. The 1969 team made guest appearances in #12–17 and #25. A new ongoing series starring the original Guardians, titled Guardians 3000 and written by Abnett, launched in 2014.
