I'll start buying All New GotG for him too. Even if I like GotG (especially for Gamora). I really loved most of the run we had of them except the start of this one. I really hope the fact that Rich come in this will up the level of the books for me !
And yes I want the return of Phyla, even if I like Carol, I really loved Phyla and I hope see her again soon !
And I really hope there will have more bonding between Rich and Gamora in this arc with the cancel of Nova, they kinda cut something (I suppose) and I hope they'll explain a bit in this.
Yes I read Champions for most of the cast (except Cho) but yes especially Sam and Cyke.
