Solicit Synopsis
IN THE COURT OF THE CRIMSON KING!
• PETER QUILL returns to Earth…but a lot has changed since he was last there.
• As Peter reacquaints himself with the GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY, he’ll find it’s difficult to pick up where he left off.
• But they’ll have to figure it out quick, as A DEADLY ENEMY is closing in…
• And: What happened to the AVENGERS?Notes
- This issue does nothing to alleviate the confusion surrounding "New Babylon," which had previously been identified in Wolverine (Vol. 3) #66 — 72 as Washington, D.C., but as both Washington, D.C. and New York City in Wolverine (Vol. 3) #71.
