If you want to see where his creative energy is being directed these days, check out his excellent Image series, I Hate Fairyland, which is the antithesis of this crap. Marvel really is pitching Groot: Vol. 1 no-hitter with their Guardians books these days! View Groot: Vol. 1 4 comments. I liked it, I really did. Not only because I love both titular characters, but also because I usually love Skottie Young's work. And there is the keyword: usually. Groot: Vol. 1 first 3 issues were Still, it was kind of cool. The only I liked it, I really did. The only thing was that Groot looked a bit anorexic. However, I thought that was part of the story since he was in a rough shape. The other issues were The humour was just too flat for me even when compared to the usual one-liners it was pretty dull. Sadly, the art was not too much to my liking either. Again, usually I adore Groot: Vol. 1 Young's art so I was very much looking forward to this but maybe I was expecting too much. As I said, it all Groot: Vol. 1 kind of wrongespecially in the latter half of this volume. I had fun, but not as much as I had wanted. View all 10 comments. Sep 21, Chad rated it liked it. Young has lost some of the spark that made his previous Rocket Raccoon series so grand. The first 3 issues get really dark but it pays off in the third issue. The last 3 issues are all one note jokes with inferior, super busy artwork. The fantasy football issue made my eyes bleed and the viking issue wasn't much better. Dec 19, Jonathan rated it it was amazing Recommends it for: anyone with a funny bone. Shelves: favoritesmust-own Groot: Vol. 1, single-issuescomics-graphic-novelsmarvel-comicsreadsskottie-young. This review has been hidden because Groot: Vol. 1 contains spoilers. To view it, click here. All four stories in this one hit the mark dead-on. First we have Groot on a scavenger hunt across the Galaxy following "tattoos" really just carvings, right? Turns out that Rocket was pulling one over on Groot the whole time but in the process we get to meet: Pockets Possum and his pal, Shrub! Groot: Vol. 1, basically the alternate universe and equally hilarious version of our title 5 stars Hey Skottie, come here man. So, basically the alternate universe and equally hilarious version Groot: Vol. 1 our title characters. Tony Stark keeps going off script so they make a bet that Rocket can't win in Tony's "Fantasy Football" league. Let's just say that it's not what Rocket was expecting, but he still comes Groot: Vol. 1 on top. Next they have a run-in with some space viking type people who think Groot is a God and want to sacrifice him via volcano. The last issue has Rocket and Groot engage in an epic battle of "I can beat you at anything" which surprisingly has Groot come out ahead in just about everything. It's also responsible for one of the funniest exchanges between these characters that I've read. Rocket: "I'm about to fast you so furious you don't even know! Groot: "I am Groot! If anyone is , it's me! View 2 comments. Dec 30, Paul E. Morph rated it really liked it Shelves: comics-read-in The first half of this collection was kind of twisted It was a delicate balancing act of hubris and eros No, that's not right, either, damnit. Anyway, the second half gave up the darker edge and just turned into a bunch of one-shot, one-joke romps. How much you enjoy this Groot: Vol. 1 will depend on how much you dig that kind of guff. Is this really a four star general book? Eh, prob'ly not, but giving it less felt like kicking a puppy who jus The first half of this collection was kind of twisted Call it the last few dregs of my Christmas spirit. View all 3 comments.
