Witness Groot rise as a hero in a new solo series

This April, see the thrilling mission that turned Groot into one of the galaxy’s greatest defenders in an all-new limited series! 

The iconic hero will headline his very own solo series that will reveal his never-before-told origin and depict his first breathtaking battles! The series will feature the momentous return of writer Dan Abnett, known for redefining the Guardians characters and Marvel space as we know it in his acclaimed run of Guardians of the Galaxy and epics like Annihilation and War of the Kings. Abnett will team up with Damian Couceiro, known for his work on Ghost Rider: Return Of Vengeance and X-Force, to take readers back to Planet X to explore Groot’s early days and uncover the truth about his home and species. Groot’s thrilling journey across the galaxy will see him cross paths with the original Captain Marvel and introduce the distant ancestor of a fellow Guardian.

Before he was a Guardian of the Galaxy…before the Grootfall…young Groot lived a life of tranquility on his serene home world. But when monstrous invaders attack his planet, Groot must accept his heroic destiny! But will this destiny lead him to come to blows with a young Kree soldier by the name of Mar-Vell?

MONSTER, HERO, GUARDIAN…GROOT! See a side of this iconic character that you never could imagine when Groot #1 hits stands in April with a cover by Lee Garbett!
