What Happened To Everyone Who Joined The Guardians Of The Galaxy?

18. Major Victory

Guardians of the Galaxy Thing
Marvel Comics

One of the original four Guardians of the Galaxy alongside Yondu and two other characters, Major Victory is definitely a lot more important a character than a lot of the others, but he's still pretty damn obscure in his own right.

Of course this wouldn't be the original Guardians if it wasn't needlessly complicated to the point of absurdity. Major Victory is actually a mutant, but not just any mutant, but a mutant from an alternate version of Earth (Earth-691 to be precise) and is the alternate version of this other X-Men character that you've definitely never heard of named Justice.

Anyway, our good buddy Vance was an astronaut sent off into space by NASA to colonize another planet named Centauri-IV. He was placed in suspended animation, and by the time his ship was found, it had been centuries since he last went under, his mission rendered redundant thanks to further human colonization of other planets, so what the hell, why not run with these weirdos calling themselves the Guardians of the Galaxy for a while?
