Graphic Novel Spotlight: Guardians of the Galaxy

Guardians of the Galaxy is currently a box office hit, but it began life as a popular comic book series with characters introduced to the Marvel universe as far back as 1969. Now many of those comics are available as graphic novels in Kindle format, and the first anthology in the series is currently on sale for just $3.99 (normally priced at $10.99) so it’s a great time to check them out!
