GUARDIANS OF INFINITY #1

Strangest Ancient Language Discovered in a Marvel Comic

Drax and Rocket come across a hidden message.

The language looks like one used a long time ago in a galaxy far far away. It seems to have been flipped. The message isn't much. It's a matter of giving credit where credit is due. I'll let you figure out what the message is dealing with.

If you're on a team of heroes and one of the members is super-smart, what better way to travel than a RV that's impossibly larger on the inside and has a slushie machine?

Best Secret About Harley

There's one thing from this week's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice trailer that got people excited--Wonder Woman. It turns out Harley Quinn's a big Wonder Woman fan as well.

Strangest Team-Up

It's pretty weird how Harley goes about making this happen and why she felt the need to knock out Wonder Woman and take her outfit off so she could wear it. You don't often see team-ups resulting in an exchange of costumes.
