Of all the characters I could possibly hyperfixate on once getting back into guardians of the galaxy after watching vol.3, I had to go and choose the character who has been canonically dead in universe for at least over a decade!
#Groot#og Groot#MCU Groot#gotg#guardians of the galaxy#like Groot ii/swole groot is great#but I miss og Groot so much#plus I think he has a ton of unrealised potential in the comics#the writing for him peaked with the 2015 Groot limited series and then never again to be honest#he’s just been relegated to either being rockets friend or the guardians giant muscle for when they need to get rid of a crowd of enemies#the only time anyone seems to care about Groot is when he goes baby mode#also there’s grootfall I guess but I don’t think we’re allowed to talk about that…#the 2015 Groot comics did him so right by fleashing out his character/backstory#as this brave kind often times easily distracted yet still bright and emotionally intelligent being#who’s gained so much wisdom through wandering the universe and is able to see the good of everything#and was able to build a beutiful meaningful life for himself despite being rejected by his own kind#and dismissed by the rest of the universe as a mindless destructive monster#and having to grapple with the loneliness of nobody understanding him apart from a few friends he managed to form a close bond with#in spite of thier obvious differences#that was great!#….and then every gotg writer since just. didn’t do anything with at. at all.#and I have no fucking clue why#maybe it’s hard to write dialogue with us whole I Am Groot shtick or somthing? idk???#I just think Groot/og Groot deserves better ok
