The element gun thing could have been explained very easily.
The OG element gun was a spartax weapon, right?
And now he's trapped on spartax, right?
Really could have written it so that he found two newer models of the weapon and took those

Totally feel you on your mini-rant. I mean, I didn't know about any of this before, but I upon hearing about it, I feel similarly.

The Guardians don't seem to be very good at the whole...staying a team thing.

[matricepeinard]

it's crazy how different The movie version and the comic version are different. Event if they were kind of re imagined at the same time !

I'll do ya one better;



WHY IS STARLORD?




*cricket sounds*


I'll, uh, see myself out.

Nice. Love the videos, Drake. Keep up the awesome work. As someone who hasn't read a single comic in over a quarter of a century (mostly for financial reasons) I appreciate the lore and knowledge bombs you drop on us. Hope you can keep it going. cheers, mate.

Suck it YouTube, I'll comment a lot. Drake is going nowehere!

[Darqueness]

THANK YOU DRAKE! Finally someones covers the in betweens of where all the cybernetics parts came in and when they somehow disappeared. Most just cover the more recent stuff and occasionally talk about the before stuff but no one really went into details on the middle. Does it all make sense? Of course not. Do I care? Of course not. Why? #BecauseComics Love this channel. :)

I like that the video game is based off this comic instead of the movie because the element gun mechanics are so cool

[pious]

So Bendis' bastardised retcon origin completely ignores the sentient ship Star Lord had that was just as much part of his character as the element gun? *Sigh*

Also, Drake 11:14 DnA's Star Lord is the best written version of the character.

Let's start a chain to save Drake!

I am Groot.

[joweber]

Nice video, I did not expect such a backstory. I only saw the first movie. I like his old gun better, it looks more more unique

[sethleoric]

The artwork always keeps me guessing if he's 20 or 30

[andresymedio]

[bleghbleghblegh]

Keep up the awesome videos Drake! I've been loving the Guardians of the Galaxy series!

[ACoolestNinja]

I like current Star-Lord but older versions sound super cool too!

[TheCreepypro]

I like how you tied everything together good job dude

[professorfox]

I see a theme of them breaking up and getting back together

[DeKoTree]

Goddamn I hate what bendis did to him.... I love his engleheart run with ship and all the DNA stuff is a masterpiece

[SpecMid]

Great job as per frickin usual, Drake!
Keep up the great work.

(Also I hid a GOTG joke in that first sentence.)
