Kanan: First Blood

First Blood (Star Wars: Kanan, #2)From Goodreads:    Continue to explore the early days of Kanan Jarrus, the sensational star of STAR WARS REBELS! You've seen Kanan's last adventure as a Padawan, now witness his first! The boy who was Caleb Dune must find his feet as the Clone Wars rage all around him. When the Jedi Temple comes under attack, what can a mere Padawan do to make a difference? Caleb and his new master, Bilaba, will take command of their own clone troop, and lead them into the furious Battle of Mygeeto. But lying in wait for them there are a pair of Separatist Generals, one of whom is one of the most deadly threats in the entire galaxy! Can Caleb and Bilaba survive Grievous? 

Collecting KANAN #7-12.





My Thoughts:

-    This volume had the answers I wanted from the first volume. I liked getting to know Kana's master better. I liked the story of how she picked him for her padawan.

-    It was fun to see other characters like Grievous and the Ghost crew.

-    I love that there is a reference the book, A New Dawn. I need to read that now.

-    It was really fun to read about Kanan's back story.

Marvel Universe Guardians of the Galaxy #1 - #5

27152756From Goodreads:    The Guardians of the Galaxy return in their new on-going series! Star-Lord! Rocket! Groot! Gamora! Drax! Join your favorite galactic guardians at the start of their new adventures!












My Thoughts:

-    I like the cartoony look, but I kinda wish it was less cartoony.

-    Pretty sure this is a series for kids. Oh well, I'm still enjoying it.

-    Is this based on a cartoon from the Disney channel?

-    The story picks up sometime after the movie. I love that it ties in.

-    The little Lego thing at the end was fun. I have no idea what was happening, but it was fun.


28079454Goodreads Says:    The Guardians of the Galaxy return in their new on-going series! The star-spanning Guardians team up to pursue their pursuer. But a mysterious object just may end their adventure before it begins!












My Thoughts:

-    Whoa! Groot turned into Hulk Groot! I didn't know that was even possible.

-    The dog is a little annoying at first, but he is growing on me.

-    This issue was pretty funny.

-    I love Rocket! His dialogue is the best!

-    I love all the characters really.

-    Some of the panels are really dark. I wish they would lighten them up a bit. I want to see everything that is going on.



29354855From Goodreads:    The Guardians are back! You're welcome. But how long will this ragtag team be able to stand each other? Don't miss everyone's favorite galaxy-faring adventurers' latest series!













My Thoughts:

-    I love this cover!

-    The series is definitely for kids. There are activity pages like dot-to-dot and stuff throughout.

-    FIN FANG FOOM!!!!!!! So awesome!! I am GEEKIN' out!!!

-    I love all the tech. It is one of the reasons I love Marvel so much. They have all the cool gadgets. Batman should really be a Marvel character.

-    The last couple of panels are a riot! Ha!


MARVEL UNIVERSE GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY (2015) #4Nothing from Goodreads
















My Thoughts:

-    I love the Milano. It is a great ship! It looks really cool.

-    This was another really fun issue. Each issue released is great!

-    I would love to see a real fight between Drax and Gamora.

-    Rocket is the best! I will never get tired of him.


29354875Goodreads Says:    THE GUARDIANS ARE IN *BIG* TROUBLE But we can only give you a hinT Three words…I. AM. GROOT.














My Thoughts:

-    I love the artwork, but some of the panels are dark and it is harder to see what is going on.

-    I love the humor! So funny!

-    I am intrigued by Groot's heart. That is cool, and what did Quill see in there?

-    This is a fun series, but I'm torn on whether I want to continue reading. I just don't know if I want to keep pouring money into a series that is for kids.
