The Imperial Guard Are The New Guardians of The Galaxy? Avengers #5 & 6

[page_title]

Marvel revealed the February 2013 solicits for Jonathan Hickman’s Avengers #5 and 6 where we see the Imperial Guard front and center as well as the new Captain Universe.

Regarding the Imperial Guard, we see that an Avenger joins the team and they go about — guarding the galaxy?

Suppose it makes senses seeing how Bendis grounded the real Guardians of the Galaxy to be guarding the earth with Iron Man.

Sorry, folks, couldn’t resist that one. Well deserved, if you ask me.
