“The gods are coming! The Olympian gods are returning to our universe – and they’re taking their exile at Peter Quill’s hands very personally,” reads Marvel’s solicitation for the issue. “To stop them, the Guardians return to the place the team was born… but will be facing their past in the Annihilation War help them survive their future?”
Rafael Albuquerque’s cover to the issue features the modern-day versions of Nova, Star-Lord, and Gamora, along with their 14-years-prior versions from Annihilation – including the very, very different version of Peter Quill before he kinda-sorta-evolved coinciding with the 2014 film.

As for what happens there? We’ve asked writer Al Ewing, and we’ll get back to you when we know more.
