Who is Jack Flag from Guardians of the Galaxy

Jack Harrison alongside his brother Drake are computer experts that work as part of Captain America’s network. They set up citizen patrols in Sandhaven, in Arizona. During one patrol they were attacked, which resulted in Drake losing the use of his legs.

The
Serpent Society were trying to take over Sandhaven, Jack and Drake told
the local authorities about it. However the authorities decided not to
act as they seemed to have all been paid off by the society.

Jack
reinvents himself as Jack Flag, a hero to fight the Serpent Society. To
get into shape Jack lifted weights, and taught himself martial arts.
Jack was strong before he started training yet wanted to be stronger to
take on the Serpent Society.

Power And Abilities

All
the training and weight lifting makes Jack even stronger than before.
He is strong enough to lift around 10 tons as a result of accidentally
gaining extra power.

Hyde-like abilities:
Jack is able to change, like Jakyl and Hyde. He was inadvertently sprayed by Calvin Zabo.

Superstrength:
The
Hyde spray of Calvin Zabo gave Jack Flag enough extra strength to be
able to lift 10 tons. It means that he is a good recruit for either the
Avengers or the Guardians of the Galaxy.

Extra stamina:
The spray had the consequence that Jack can exert himself for several hours before becoming exhausted or being harmed by toxins.

Extra endurance:
The
Hyde spray means that Jack can survive and absorb more trauma and
impact than the average person. Jack can survive severe blows yet he
could be killed by bullets or sharp blades. He can sustain more damage
but he is not immortal.

Enhanced healing:
His
altered metabolism always Jack to recover from injury sooner than other
people can. He recovers from scratches or bruises within a couple of
hours, or from broken limps in one or two days.

The full extent of
his ability to regenerate is not known, though he did not recover from
an ear injury by himself, and probably got treatment for it after he had
a back injury.

All in all these powers mean that Jack could fight for longer and survive more punishment.

Cosmo the Spacedog is a member of the Guardians of the
Galaxy and is in charge of the Knowhere space station as the security
chief. 

Cosmo is an incredibly gifted Russian telepathic dog who found his way into deep space following a mission launched from Earth.

Meet Cosmo The Spacedog

Cosmo the Spacedog was featured in volume 4 #7 of Nova and conceived
by Andy Lanning and Dan Annette. He continues to be featured in
Guardians of the Galaxy stories.
Cosmo makes a cameo appearance in
the Guardians of the Galaxy movie where he can be found in the
Collector’s museum exhibit and also at a post credit scene licking the
collector

Powers And Abilities

One of Cosmo’s
main abilities is telekinesis. He can move things with his mind and is
extremely accurate with it. Along with that he can also control other
animals or people’s minds and know what they’re thinking about.

With
his telepathic powers Cosmo can do a variety of different things. For
defense Cosmo can hide his presence and powers from other psions or
psychics.

The power works on anyone he wants to but can be sensed
by more powerful beings than him. He can create a psychic shield to
protect anybody around him too.

The telepathic illusion skill he has makes intricate illusions and can make people hallucinate for a short period of time.

Using
his telepathic camouflage ability he can change the way people perceive
things. Doing this allows Cosmo The Spacedog to change how him and his
friends look to other people and can even make himself invisible.

The mental paralysis ability can make anyone immobile physically and mentally.

This
power is so strong that he made an evil version of the Hulk pass out by
just going into his mind. This also allows him to cause amnesia or wipe
out any awareness of certain memories.

The mental sedation ability lets Cosmo render his opponents useless for as long as he is constantly using the ability.

He
combines this with his Psionic blast to do serious mental damage. The
psionic waves can’t harm anyone physically and is used to put people to
sleep or change how their brain works.

Cosmo can also detect
people that are near him by sensing their brainwaves with his mental
detection. Unlike other dogs, his extended longevity lets him live way
longer than any other animal.

Who Is Adam Warlock in Marvel Comics?

Adam Warlock was the creation of a team of researchers known
as The Beehive. They created this super being in an attempt to design
the ultimate human being of the future. When first created, the new
being was only known as “Him”.

Thankfully for the people of Earth, Warlock soon realised that the
members of the Beehive had intended to use his special powers to commit
evil deeds. Instead of doing their bidding, he decided to escape from
their complex, and hurt several of his creators in the process.

Warlock, had no life experience and after running into Thor and the Lady Sif, he attempted to kidnap the latter.

Thor
stopped him in his tracks, Warlock was barely alive after Thor left the
scene. However, he managed to find his way into a regeneration cocoon,
from where he emerges at a later date.

Warlock First Appearance

Adam
Warlock made his very first comic appearance during Fantastic Four
#66-67 (published in 1967). These stories were drawn by Jack Kirby and
the script was written by Stan Lee.

In just 20 issues of Fantastic
Four, Kirby not only came up with Adam Warlock, he also created Black
Panther, the Inhumans, Galactus and the Silver Surfer.

Throughout
those early issues Warlock was simply known as “Him”. He had completely
destroyed the Beehive by that point, and it was not made clear whether
or not he had survived the destruction of the Beehive.

He returned briefly in the pages of Thor, still without a name.

Jim
Starlin was responsible for giving him a name for the story, Power of
the Warlock. It was during his solo adventures that Warlock joined up
with the all powerful Soul Gem and went on to become the sworn adversary
of the demented Titan, Thanos.

The Soul Gem is what he used in Marvel Cinematic Universe to bring Vision to life.

Who Is Bug The Micronaut from Guardians of the Galaxy?

Bug the Micronaut wasn’t a key member of the Guardians of the Galaxy, but he was fun to have on the team.

He
was added to the team after a minor team shakeup during writer Dan
Abnett’s run. Rocket brought in new members, including Bug, when other
Guardians went their separate ways.

Bug The Micronaut
Bug The Micronaut from Guardians of the Galaxy

Bug In Marvel Comics

Even though he doesn’t bring a lot to the table, Bug has been known to lighten the mood.
His
comedic humor could be just what the third Guardians movie needs, after
the second movie ended with Groot returning to his normal size and
Rocket experiencing a bit of a setback.

Bug And The Microverse

Bug
first appeared in 1979’s debut issue of the Micronauts. He was from the
planet of Kalikak in the Microverse. Known as both a thief and
comedian, he was always a professional in action.
He formed a lasting friendship with his teammate Acroyear, despite their vastly different personalities.

In
fact, Acroyear’s friendship with Bug may have been one of the main
reasons why he started to question the cold, calculating warrior ethic
that dominated his people.

In the first issue we find
Acroyear and Bug in the Yard of the Gladiators along with other
political prisoners. They were gathered there by the evil Baron Karza’s
soldiers to practice for gladatorial games.

The duo then met
Arcturus Rann when they were assembled in the gladiator colosseum. There
they encountered a pulse-firing death tank.

While Acroyear
attacked the tank’s wheels, Bug courageously vaulted up on top of the
death tank and lobbed a packet bomb into its eye slits.

Bug,
Acroyear and Rann escaped in a getaway vehicle piloted by Marionette,
another political prisoner. The quartet joined forces with robots
Microtron and Biotron as they escape Homeworld in a starship. Biotron
piloted their craft around the edges of the Microverse.

Their ship, the HMS Endeavor, made its way to Earth. There, they found themselves in the backyard of an average American home.

They
soon learned how much larger things are on Earth. Shortly after they
left their ship, they met a puppy that Microtron attacked. They also
encountered a manual lawn mower that runs over Acroyear and Bug.

What Did Gamora do In The Infinity Watch?

During the Infinity Crusade Gamora becomes brainwashed by
the powerful Goddess. Gamora joins the Goddess as one of her Holy Guard
who are committed to defend Paradise Omega while the Godess plots an
end to all life in the Universe.

The events of the Infinity Crusade occur after The Infinity Gauntlet and The Infinity War.

The Cosmic Egg is created by The Goddess from 30 Cosmic Containment Units which she has gathered from myriad dimensions. 

The
Cosmic Egg is a powerful artifact which allows The Goddess to make real
her every wish. After forging the Cosmic egg the Goddess emerges as The
Redemptress.

While defending Paradise Omega, Gamora fought many of Earths
super heroes who she was able to defeat. Gamora was easily able to
overpower the Thing, Night Thrasher and Rage during the conflict.  

During the battle, Wolverine managed to pierce Gamora in the stomach
with his claws. However, Gamora was able to recover due to her
accelerated healing abilities. 


What Did Gamora do In The Infinity Watch?

When Gamora Joins Infinity Watch

The Living Tribunal is a powerful being as old as the
Universe itself. It acts as a protector of the multiverse, preventing
the imbalance of power to be controlled by one universe over the others. 

In order to protect the cosmic balance the Living
Tribunal will act to prevent overwhelming imbalances of power between
universes or of an imbalance of good and evil within a universe.

When
Adam Warlock gains control of the Infinity Gems, he becomes near
omnipotent and is driven mad with power that he now possesses. This was
too much power for one being to wield according to the cosmic laws.

Thanks
to the Living Tribunal, Warlock was not permitted to use the infinity
gems so he creates the Infinity Watch to guard these powerful stones.
Warlock chooses from the most trusted people in the galaxy to help keep
the Infinity Gems from the wrong hands.

Warlock divided the gems between five allies he thought he could trust:
  • Moondragon (Mind Gem)
  • Drax the Destroyer (Power Gem)
  • Gamora (Time Gem)
  • Pip (Space Gem)
  • Adam Warlock (Soul Gem)
  • Thanos (Reality Gem)
The Infinity Watch were tasked with safeguarding the individual gems. 
Gamora
was charged with protecting the Time Gem although she did not agree
with his choices. She grudgingly agreed assuming he had a cosmic
intelligence.

The individual members of the Infinity Watch all got
captured by Man-Beast. This led to Warlock deciding that the individual
members needed to remain together to work as a team.

Following
their rescue by Warlock, The Infinity Watch were assembles and created a
base on Monster Island, the territory of Mole Man.

How Gamora Enters the Soul World

Due to the actions of Thanos that happen outside of the published story, Gamora and Pip are mortally injured. 

As
Gamora lay dying, she reports to Warlock of the true intentions of
Thanos that she uncovered. Warlock used his Soul Gem to send their souls
to live within the Soul World.

When Adam Warlock is killed by his younger self, he joins Gamora and Pip in Soul world where they live in peace.

Years
later, the Soul World was visited by Drax the Destroyer and Silver
Surfer. They seek assistance from Warlock to help them defeat Thanos
after he returned from the dead.

Warlock helps guide Gamora and Pip out of the Soulworld to prevent Thanos from continuing to increase in power.

In
order to exist in the real world, the souls of Gamora, Pip and Warlock
needed bodies to inhabit. They found three car-accident fatalities that
offered them the bodies that they required.

Gamora is returned to life in Infinity Gauntlet #1 as the revived corpse of a woman named Bambi Long.

These events led up to the epic The Infinity Gauntlet story arc.

Why did Thanos Adopt Gamora?

The relationship between Gamora and Thanos is a
complicated affair. So how did the Mad Tyrant become father to The
Deadliest Woman in the Galaxy?

In
the Marvel comic book story, Thanos selected Gamora purely as a
potential weapon to be trained up to become an assassin of the Magus.

 

Gamora was born into the alien humanoid race called the
Zen Whoberis. When her home planet was destroyed, Thanos took the young
Gamora into his care.

In her original timeline
(7528) Gamora’s race was wiped out by a zealous religious order called
the Universal Church of Truth which worshiped the Magus.
