About the author

Brian Michael Bendis

4,411 books2,576 followers
A comic book writer and erstwhile artist. He has won critical acclaim (including five Eisner Awards) and is one of the most successful writers working in mainstream comics. For over eight years Bendis’s books have consistently sat in the top five best sellers on the nationwide comic and graphic novel sales charts.

Though he started as a writer and artist of independent noir fiction series, he shot to stardom as a writer of Marvel Comics' superhero books, particularly Ultimate Spider-Man.

Bendis first entered the comic world with the "Jinx" line of crime comics in 1995. This line has spawned the graphic novels Goldfish, Fire, Jinx, Torso (with Marc Andreyko), and Total Sell Out. Bendis is writing the film version of Jinx for Universal Pictures with Oscar-winner Charlize Theron attached to star and produce.

Bendis’s other projects include the Harvey, Eisner, and Eagle Award-nominated Powers (with Michael Avon Oeming) originally from Image Comics, now published by Marvel's new creator-owned imprint Icon Comics, and the Hollywood tell-all Fortune and Glory from Oni Press, both of which received an "A" from Entertainment Weekly.

Bendis is one of the premiere architects of Marvel's "Ultimate" line: comics specifically created for the new generation of comic readers. He has written every issue of Ultimate Spider-Man since its best-selling launch, and has also written for Ultimate Fantastic Four and Ultimate X-Men, as well as every issue of Ultimate Marvel Team-Up, Ultimate Origin and Ultimate Six.

Brian is currently helming a renaissance for Marvel’s AVENGERS franchise by writing both New Avengers and Mighty Avengers along with the successful ‘event’ projects House Of M, Secret War, and this summer’s Secret Invasion.

He has also previously done work on Daredevil, Alias, and The Pulse.

I really wish this title could have been left alone (read: not hijacked by events) long enough to get some momentum of its own going. As it is, I'm sort of disappointed, because I can see snippets of a great story under all of the Black Vortex stuff, but... Yeah, it's under the Black Vortex event.

description

Which wouldn't actually be a problem if I knew where the rest of the goddamn story for Black Vortex was. I mean, I liked it, but what the fuck ended up happening?

description

I'm so sick and tired of trying to chase these events down to find the conclusion. And, honestly, I'm even more sick of bitching about it.
{insert generic rant about Marvel/DC events here}

description

I love the bits with Kitty & Peter!
How cute are those two? So cute! I mean, whodathunkit? Not me, that's for sure. In fact, I remember calling it a fun relationship that wouldn't last.
Annnnnd now they're engaged...
Proving once again, that you should never listen to anything I say.

description

There's still enough humor and fun to sort of keep this title coasting along on auto pilot for a while longer. But it could be so much better than it currently is, if it was allowed to just be itself.

description

Dear Marvel,
Please, I'm begging you to put an end to these non-stop crossover events. I love comic books, and I love the characters.
But you're sucking the joy out of my life with this stupidity!

This collection is the perfect summation of what was good but ultimately frustrating about this run of the series.

There are fun moments with the characters like Rocket bickering with Captain Marvel, and there’s some potentially interesting storylines lurking in the background like Peter Quill being named the new king of Spartax against his wishes. However, once again with this title most of time is spent in service of crossing over to some other event.

This collection is especially irritating because it contains the GotG issues for The Black Vortex, but none of the other books involved. Since the story weaved through at least three other titles that means that this is like trying to read a novel with various chapters missing. I could get the Black Vortex trade from the library or read through the other comics using my Marvel Ultimate subscription, but I just don’t care.

So as usual I get enough moments with the Guardians themselves to make me crave more, but that’s never delivered because it was deemed more important to have them hook up with the X-Men for like the umpteenth time in recent memory. Now this version of the title is done, and who knows what’ll happen after Secret Wars. I just hope that maybe there will eventually come a time when I could read a version of Guardians of the Galaxy in which they actually have a purpose other than showing up in crossovers and giving a temporary home to other Marvel characters.

This Bendis' run on the Guardians started well then went downfall for good, the Black Vortex tie-in issues here collected are just a fuming pile of crap and the "President Quill" ending was a real unsatisfying one.



Luckly the annual drawn by Frank Cho was very good and that Jimmy Woo/George Takei on the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier's deck just made my day.

Yikes, this is some convoluted horseshit even by Marvel’s standards!

The book opens with a boring standalone story about the mystery of how and why a SHIELD helicarrier, with what appears to be the classic SHIELD lineup headed by Nick Fury, appears out of nowhere in deep space.

After you’re done shrugging with the conclusion of that nonsense you’re hit with Chapters 2 and 7 of The Black Vortex event - who thought tossing in those two random issues was a good idea?! I haven’t read the main event but it looks like a cosmic rehash of the Phoenix Force nonsense from AvX a few years ago. Gamora gets powered up and then so do a bunch of other characters. The Cyclops series, Nova, and All-New X-Men get suckered into this event with the Guardians of the Galaxy - four titles ruined for the price of one!

Then it’s all over without any real lasting changes, just like every Marvel event, and Star-Lord’s elected president of Spartax!? And let’s top off this garbage with an arbitrary attack by the Chitauri for no reason!

Guardians of the Galaxy, Volume 5: Through the Looking Glass is absolute garbage from start to finish - this series is dead in the water.

With all the chaos caused by the Black Vortex, the Guardians of the Galaxy forgot they had a minor problem to deal with.
description
That problem being that Peter Quill was elected President of Spartax. Now Spartax has sent some soldiers to collect Quill and bring him home.

So I'm not going to really go into the Black Vortex chapters that seem massively disjointed in this volume. I liked Black Vortex, but putting just the Guardians of the Galaxy chapters in here is like getting flipped off by Marvel. Anyway...Guardians at least left a thread to be tied up in that Spartax was trying to elect Quill and he won. In classic Guardian fashion, they are attacked when things seem to be going well.
description

Just as an interesting thread to tie up was established prior to Black Vortex, Bendis left the Guardians in an interesting spot by the end. Overall this was just ok, nothing special. I did appreciate not having filler issues to simply complete the current run.

This one was so good!

It starts with Carol reminiscing about her days on New Avengers and how she is missing her friends and the crazy space adventures she has been on and it starts with skepticism but ends with a groot hug and it was so worth it and cute!

Plus the two issues tying into Black Vortex and its okay, focusing on Gamora and her new perspective after gaining cosmic powers!

And finally what does the group do now that Peter has been elected president of Spartax and his new lady love Kitty and maybe the threat of Planet Kindlun and the chitauri and what the Guardians do after and they disband maybe? And the future of the team and its so much tension and drama nd all, I love it!

This volume is great and just shows how Bendis can tap into the heart of the characters and give you great moments but also ones where you will worry and bring out the best of the characters and yes change status quo for good, also introducing new elements. And it ends with a bang and ties into secret wars!

Most of this volume has already been collected in the Black Vortex TPB and what's left is just a strange sort of epilogue that deals with Star-Lord's dilemma regarding the presidency of his father's home planet, Spartax (which sounds like a brand of toothpaste to me). This dilemma is only touched upon, though, and not resolved, so the whole thing is largely unsatisfying.

Skipped the Black Vortex stuff. If that hadn't interfered, this would have been a really good volume. One of the best volumes in Bendis's run, actually. Because the stuff with Peter completely and totally failing to deal with being elected president of Spartax leads to some pretty good stuff, and some pretty funny stuff. And his relationship with Kitty is more fun here than it has been since they started up. I don't like the abrupt interruption that Secret Wars has caused, but I guess we'll see how that washes out on the other side.

All of these issues are part of an event called Black Vortex. I didn't read the whole event, just the Guardians and All-New X-men issues. They're okay. They mostly focus on Quill and Gamora. Guardians will not be remembered as one of Bendis better works though.

It's too bad this series is so frequently hijacked by events. I usually love events, and I love tie ins, but essentially more than half of this series is tied to an event, leaving little time to build up its own arcs. When it did explore its own arcs, they were often only one or two issues long. This volume is a good example: at this point (pre-publication in hc) it looks like most of the collection will be the guardians issues from the Black Vortex event, which will make no sense out of context, and the two concluding issues which hastily and open-endedly "conclude" the story of Peter being elected President of Spartax. And if there wasn't the Secret Wars logo on the last panel, you'd never guess this is the last issue of the series. I certainly hope this storyline gets revisited in the post-Battleworld Marvel Universe, or it will feel extremely hollow and infuriating.

Another volume of GOTG that is bogged down and inconsistent. Bendis’ run started promising but the constant element of bringing in other characters, just for them to do nothing, really hurt the overall run. When Gamora leaves the team at the end you can’t feel anything as for 27 issues only maybe 10 have been centred around the GOTG.

Why do I have to read crossovers but only know 25% of what's going on? Why? Half of this volume contained The Black Vortex storyline, but I only know pieces of what happened thanks to the summaries. UGH. Other than that, the Guardians-only storylines were great, I'm in mourning now, though. I'll have to jump into Secret Wars at some point, but please... Promise you won't break my heart that much again. Also, I'd do anything for Peter Quill and Kitty Pryde, I adore them so much together and I need more.

This edition just sucks. If you didn't read the Black Vortex crossover, the first two chapters are understandable. If you did read the Black Vortex, the first two chapters are worthless because just a reprint. So you are left with a full price comic and only 2 chapters with a storyline that could have been told on 2 pages (Peter returning to Spartax, not a big surprise), the other pages are just filled with a traditional battle. And the end of course refers to Secret Wars.
The post-Annihilation Guardians-team was a great and original addition to the Marvel universe, but this 'new' team never got up to that standard. Brian Michael Bendis never got grip on a original storyline, mixed up with some Avengers, (all New) X-men and the main storyline is Peter in love with Kitty Pride. Boring.

I already read issues #24 and #25 in The Black Vortex, so I’m only reviewing issues #26, #27 and Annual #1.

And they are pretty good. The annual is like a zany Star Trek episode. It’s very slice of space life with some of those space mystery vibes. #26-27 are interesting. It involves Quill’s return to Spartax as Emperor. Cosmic Gamora is pretty badass here as well.

This series is cool. Bendis is a good writer, and Valerio Schitti never seems to disappoint. He definitely makes a good cosmic artist.

Two stars are only for the president quill storyline everything else in this was extremely bad. I don’t even know if the story was good because the issues they put in for the big crossover event made zero sense and were incredibly confusing and boring to read without having context for what weird new event is going on.

Sure, a lot of this volume were random issues jumbled together but it kind of worked and still made an interesting story. I enjoyed this a lot :)

It's unclear exactly what material will be included in this collection but it looks like the Guardians issues from the Black Vortex event will be included. Now I really liked the Black Vortex but only having a few individual issues of the big event is a bit rubbish- I'd recommend reading the complete Black Vortex event.

Continuing from the big cliffhanger at the end of volume 4, we see Peter Quill having to deal with having been voted president of Spartax. There's a lot of comedy value to be had from being made president without even wanting to be but it's also a dilemma for Peter Quill. Should he lead the planet or continue life as a Guardian of the Galaxy- with his fiancee Kitty Pryde.

Before he really has a chance to decide the Chitauri turn-up, as the Guardians arrival on Spartax was broadcast across the galaxy. They are after Gamora, but what with her being all cosmically-powered now they are not going to get her easily.

I thought it was a decent little story which carried on the excellent series in a effective way. I am really looking forward to the Guardians next adventure in Secret Wars!

Honestly, this comic would get a higher score from me if all of "The Black Vortex" crossover event were included. But huge chunks of that story are missing, including the ending, because they take place in the pages of other titles like All New X-Men and Nova. I'll have to read the "Black Vortex" omnibus to get the whole thing. Aside from that, the artwork is great and Bendis's writing is solid, as usual. In fact, I've been very pleased by how consistently good this recent Guardians title has been.

Contains the Black Vortex issues, so you get isolated chapters with no resolution.

I would have given it a 2 but the Annual featuring SHIELD is great!

I thought this book was more emotional than I expected. Disclaimer: I read the first two issues of this comic as part of The Black Vortex event, so go check out my review my for that if you want info on those. I have to admit that it's super weird to see Kitty with the Guardians instead of the X-Men. I mean, she's always hated space, so this is incredibly mind-blowing. Though she is now engaged to Peter, it seems that their wedding is not a priority. It's not even in the top three. It seems so long ago when I read the last page of the issue where Peter saw a billboard showcasing his win for President of Spartax. I honestly think he could totally rise to the challenge and be way better than his dad ever was, but I also don't think he's ready to give up his pirating adventures. I mean, if he does accept his presidency, then not only is he committing to the girl he loves, he's also committing to running an empire. And not that I think Peter has commitment issues or anything...but I think Peter has commitment issues. I don't think he's ready to settle down yet. And there's been a lot of external changes, too. The Kree Empire has fallen, as has the Skrull. Not to mention the fact that Kitty Pryde is a cosmic being of unfathomable power now. I hope that Peter's decision doesn't break up the Guardians. Even if he does accept, I want them to still hang out. However, I'm just not sure how realistic that is. Watching the Guardians try to be part of Peter's council on Spartax was sufficient evidence of how ridiculous that is. With Gamora gone, everything feels wrong. I understand that she has to confront her father in order to live freely and befriend people without fear of them getting hurt, but I was hurt when she left. She acknowledged that she loved them too much and she even cried. If you know anything about comic book Gamora, you know that she does not cry. It was emotional and I honestly don't know if I'll ever be okay. The Annual #1 was crazy, but the end made me feel good. It was good to see Carol again, even if she witnessed a part of an endless cycle where S.H.I.E.L.D. Life Model Decoys fighting a war against religious zealots of the Skrull Empire. That entire experience was actually just super eerie. Looking at copies of people I have seen in the Marvel Universe felt ghostly. And for a second I forgot that the comic book Nick Fury is white, so that really threw me off. I knew something was up the second that helicarrier came out of nowhere. I feel bad that Carol missed home so much, but Groot giving her a hug in the middle of her video message was the most adorable and heartwarming thing in this galaxy. I recommend this book to those who like feeling emotional ups and downs.

“Sometimes the worst mirror is memory.”

3 out of 5 stars

Best for: Readers who enjoy cosmic side quests, parallel identity spirals, and Star-Lord being deeply annoyed at people calling him “King.”
Skip if: You’re here for plot momentum. This one meanders like a mixtape set to ‘shuffle and spiral.’

Through the Looking Glass is less a narrative arc and more a thematic detour—part character therapy, part alternate-universe fanfic. It picks up the emotional leftovers of Original Sin and tries to repackage them into something Peter Quill can walk away from. He doesn’t.

This volume reads like a hangover: after the drama with his father, the guilt over what was lost, and the weight of who he’s supposed to be, Peter slips into self-doubt like a cracked leather jacket. Everyone wants something from him. No one seems to want him.

So Bendis does what Bendis always does when a character starts unraveling: he bends time.

What follows is part hallucination, part simulation, and part cosmic mindtrap. It’s got echoes of Mirror Mirror Star Trek, with a bit of Doctor Strange aesthetic spillover. But instead of insight, it mostly delivers confusion and a few great panels of Rocket yelling at distorted clones.

There’s a decent emotional beat buried in the noise: Peter confronting versions of himself he never got to be. The soldier. The prince. The man who stayed. It’s a subtle thing, in a book that rarely chooses subtle. But it works—until it doesn’t.

“You keep calling me ‘Star-Lord.’ Like that means something.”

There’s power in that line. But the issue is, this volume doesn’t always earn it. The stakes are low. The pacing floats. And while the team has moments, they mostly feel like NPCs in Peter’s side mission. Which is… fair, given the structure. Just not very satisfying.

The art is solid—clean, expressive, with some experimental layouts during the dreamlike sequences. But the plot lacks urgency. By the time things click back to normal, you may find yourself wondering if any of it mattered.

It’s not filler, exactly. But it’s not foundation, either.
It’s the echo in the space between volumes.
A reminder that being lost isn’t always dramatic.
Sometimes it’s just… floating.

TL;DR:
A metaphysical detour into Star-Lord’s inner breakdown, disguised as a cosmic trip through distorted realities. Looks good. Feels sad. Doesn’t quite land.

Read if you like:
✦ Character studies dressed in cosmic armor
✦ Broken mirrors, literally and metaphorically
✦ Time loops that whisper instead of explode
✦ Star-Lord asking, “Who the hell am I?” and not liking the answer

This is my 1st Guardians of the Galaxy novel, and it may seem strange for me to have started in the middle of the Black Vortex story arc, but I really don't care, this novel is amazing, funny, and it gives me all I love: Sci-fi, a sexy hero, badass women, anthropomorphism...Not to mention, Venom and the X-Men are in this novel, what is not to love?

First off, Star-Lord is sexy as hell. Move over Captain America, there is a new hero in the galaxy! Okay, maybe new is not the right word, as Peter Quill aka Star-Lord first appeared in 1976, but I am unimaginably late to the game. Secondly, Gamora is probably the most badass female in the Marvel universe. Think She-Hulk with superior fighting skills and in space! I mean Gamora is about to go head-to-head against Thanos, destroyer of half the Universe! How badass is that!?

This is also my first novel I've read with Captain Marvel (I told you I am late to the game) and I can pleasantly say I am a fan of her character. She is quirky, smart, relatable, and has just enough strong independent woman in her to make me fall in love. The novel also has Magik, quite possibly my favorite X-Men. She's a Russian sorceress mutant. How cool is that? Young Jean Grey is also a star of the novel, and she goes all Phoenix without the evil, which is always fun. Kitty Pryde is also in the novel, but I am not sure what she provides tactically to the team besides being some sort of attached to the hip fan girl to Star-Lord. That's a bit of a let down...However, I can forgive the writers because Gamora, Captain Marvel, Magik, and Jean Grey more than make up for it in female badassery.

Overall, Through the Looking Glass is a solid piece of fiction, and I look forward to reading more! I am a big fan of the Guardians of the Galaxy films and this novel gives me more to those characters, which I love. Although seemingly odd on the surface, the story works, and for that I commend Marvel!

This isn't the worst writing Bendis has done for the Guardians of the Galaxy series... but it's a terrible collection. Half of it are some issues from the Black Vortex crossover, which make no sense out of context. And then there are a few extra fallout issues at the end that sort of 'tie up' the arc (before Secret Wars happen and the series has to relaunch/renumber). Valerio Schiti has some great art, I always love his character designs and how expressive the characters are. There's a lot of Peter Quill and Kitty Pryde relationship being the focus of the series, which I don't like... but Bendis certainly handles it better than Sam Humphries did with his Legendary Star-Lord series. It even ends on a nice note that makes the couple almost... work? Sort of?

Black Vortex was bad, this book's association with Black Vortex makes it bad, and that's how it has to go. But the series is starting to address Peter Quill's immaturity, not in a "oh right I was important in DnA cosmic" carryover way but in a "has to make hard decisions even if he doesn't want to" way. Which is more on-brand for the character than he has been for most of the run. Yes, he's been opposing his father, but he's never had a plan in place. He wants J'Son to stop being a jerk, but then... what happens? What is left in the void? How do you fill the power vaccuum? His actions are starting to catch up with him and it looks like, with Kitty Pryde at his side, he might actually have the courage to face them.

Brian Bendis and Valerio Schiti take the Guardians of the Galaxy on a wild trip through space in the fifth volume of the Marvel series. The collection opens with the 2015 annual, as the team runs afoul of the classic Nick Fury and a SHIELD helicarrier. Locked in battle with Skrulls, the Guardians must uncover the truth behind the space war and determine if they should even take a side in the conflict. The volume continues with segments of the Black Vortex storyline, featuring cameos from the X-Men. Avid readers will pick up on the time-lost mutant heroes, the powerful cosmic mirror, and Star-Lord's dad; new readers will quickly become lost in an interstellar plot that is not contained with the cover of this book. The volume concludes with the team on Spartax, where Star-Lord has been elected president. The Guardians try to adjust to a leisurely lifestyle, but must go to war when a planet of enemies shows up looking for Gamora. Brian Bendis continues to write excellent scenes of talking heads, but struggles setting up a coherent plotline. Valerio Schiti is the saving grace of the collection, using excellent linework, intriguing alien races, and energetic layouts to make the assemblage a visual treat. Guardians of the Galaxy: Through the Looking Glass is a fractured image highlighting both the best and worst of the cosmic team.

Meh
OVERALL RATING: 1.5 stars
Art: 2.25 stars
Prose: 2.25 stars
Plot: 1 stars
Pacing: 2 stars
Character Development: 0.5 stars
World Building: 1 stars

The Good -There is some neat art on some pages but there is some pretty lackluster stuff too. There was one quite funny joke with Quill and Kitty Pride (the rest of the jokes were lame though).
The Bad -90+ % of this offering. Hala getting blown to smithereens was a strange hail mary. These modern authors are messing up so much of the cosmic lore which I don't like.
The Ugly - That Annual that kicks off the story is comparable to Star Trek Voyager's worst science fiction filler episode. Awful stuff that includes too much talking heads and a pointless plot. The tie ins well and truly jumped the shark long ago in this series. It is too much, ruining character development etc. There is just barely a story in this Bendis series/run - Quill's daddy issues repeated over and over through different events. Who thought bringing in a bunch of X-Men juniors was a good idea?

Końcówka Strażników Galaktyki w wykonaniu Bendisa i w porównaniu do spartolonych X-menów, tu jest o niebo lepiej. Dwa zeszyty z tego tomu wchodzą w skład eventu o nazwie Czarny Wir. Skąd Gamorra ma taką moc i wygląd. No to tego się z tego tomu nie dowiecie, jak masy innych rzeczy. Takie zagranie wydawnictwa. Nie każdemu musi pasować. Na szczęście to tylko dwa zeszyty. Potem jest lepiej.

Wariacja na temat zagubionych w czasie, gdzie główną rolę gra Nick Fury, ale ten stary, o jasnej karnacji kontra Skrulle? Jest. Peter Quill jako prezydent Spartaxu? Jest. Pal licho, że wybór nastąpił wbrew jego woli i teraz go czeka kilka trudnych decyzji. Szczęście, że może liczyć na dziewczynę i zespół, bo za rogiem szykuje się kolejna inwazja...

Okładka szumnie zapowiada coś co jak na razie stało się nawet nie połowicznie. Rozbicie Strażników? Na to odpowiedź zyskacie w kolejnym tomie. Ten był znośny, a miejscami nawet fajny. Zwłaszcza, że prace Cho czy Schiti są naprawdę dobre. Tylko pytanie, co dalej z zespołem?
