Very cool. Thanks for sharing!
No problem! This was my favourite time and niche in the mainstream comics, starting roughly with the 2004 Thanos series by Starlin which lead directly into Annihilation and later Nova and GotG and a bunch of big cosmic events tying everything together.
All of these stories took place far away from Earth, largely disconnected to the happenings in the more popular Marvel titles, and mostly ran on the idea of taking super obscure D-listers, both heores and villains, and having the freedom to rework them into great characters. Like, nobody cared about Groot.
The team was introduced into the MCU at a time this line of comics more or less ended after 10 glorious years. Suddenly they became hot stuff, so of course they started popping up all over Marvel, and of course the new writers didn't respect the continuity and the new cosmic stuff was largely trash. That's how it goes I guess.
