This was so cute. I loved the art and the stories were good. Silly, but good. I honestly think Marvel needs more silly comics, because almost everything is so dark and depressing. Good thing I just bought another comic book from Skottie Young.

This is more like what I expected from Rocket Raccoon and Groot. Stupid and uninteresting with bad art. Okay to be fair, the first story was okay, I just didn't like it. The last story with Rocket and Groot trying to prove which is "better" just had the characters written wrong. A disappointment given how good the last few related book I've read of them have been. 2.5 of 5.

It was very fun! Sometimes I struggled to get what was going on.

More Rocket & Groot!! One of the great things about these is that they are completely readable as stand-alone books. They don't depend upon you having read Guardians of the Galaxy (which I have not, but am going to be looking into).

--Rocket & Groot have been apparently killed in action in a Guardians' story, but a mysterious bark-covered individual seems to be on a massive, multi-universe spanning quest to track down his furry, be-tailed companion
--Rocket & Iron Man play a little fantasy football to settle a bet on whether or not Tony Stark will follow Rocket's rules while playing D&D (get your geek on, people)
--Groot is set up as a God on a backward planet, but godhood's not all it's cracked up to be & the duo must escape with the help of their kidnapper
--A game of pool gets out of control as Groot & Rocket embark on an epic journey of competitiveness

Things I liked:
- The art-style
- the quirkiness of Groot and Rocket

But:
- Wasn't hooked
and
- I've read better Groot and Rocket comics.

Enjoyable but not really memorable.
