What Happened To Everyone Who Joined The Guardians Of The Galaxy?
30. Yondu Udonta
It only makes sense to start off with the core members that everyone has actually heard of before getting into the obscure stuff.
The original Guardians of the Galaxy looked nothing like how they do in the movies, with almost none of the members you're familiar with being on the team. All except, of course, for Yondu Udonta. Unlike the other members, he actually wasn't born in the Milky Way galaxy, instead originally hailing from Centauri 4.
Other notable changes from his MCU counterpart include having a whole quiver of Yaka Arrows instead of just one, having to fire them from a bow and THEN control them with his whistling, and actually joining with other Marvel hero teams later on, such as the Defenders and the Avengers.
Yondu is still around the Marvel universe, of course, but his days of headlining the Guardians are long behind him now that James Gunn has established a more iconic roster for the team (and killed him off in the movies, so you know, awkward).
