I'm a well read grad student who's bluntly honest about all things, although I try to be most honest about myself.

Guardians of the Galaxy (2015-) #16 - Brian Bendis, Valerio Schiti, Arthur Adams

Guardians of the Galaxy (2015-) #16 - Brian Bendis,Valerio Schiti,Arthur Adams 

Bendis does Dr. Seuss to cover Groot’s story of being stranded on Earth.   Groot and Dr. Seuss actually make sense, given how playful Groot can get.   They also both have these joyful sensibilities, full of love and warmth.   (Although Groot can get darker when innocents, or his friends, are put in danger.)   So, I was so excited when I started this issue.   Perfection, right?
 
Nope.   It all felt incredibly forced.   
 
So, so, so forced. 
 
Stop it, Bendis.   Stop doing Seuss.   You, my friend, are no Seuss.   Which is totally okay.   I love you for a lot of reasons, but your whimsical poetry is not one of them.   Just get Rocket in there, blam, he murdered someone, witty banter, action, I am Groot, witty banter, they’re all gonna die, more action, witty banter, sweet Kitty and Quill moment, Clobberin’ Time, witty banter, they save the world, and I’m good.   I mean, this isn’t like an outline, or even how it happens in all the issues.   I’m just listing a lot of the things you’re good at.*
 
I know witty banter is in there loads of times, but he’s really good at it.
