Howard should cameo in Guardians of the Galaxy


Pretty much the title says it all... Howard should cameo in Guardian of the Galaxy. Just have him do some crazy antic in the background while the crew is walking through the prison or a busy spaceport street. Howard was keen on using violence in the comic so maybe he'd be harassing some other alien out there at blaster point etc. :)

You didn't like the movie? I thought it was a fun movie to watch. I haven't read the comics so I am not familiar with how he looks like in the comics. I may find some to download on my phone for "on the commode reading material"

I'm kinda blown away that you posted this and it happened.
Why James Gunn would ever frequent this board at all is beyond my mental grasp. And if he didn't get the inspiration from here then what was his motivation?

Well I did directly tweet Whedon that Howard should make it in the movie some place... lol but I'm fairly certain I don't have THAT much influence on their minds. Emergency Awesome's video discussing the Guardian of The Galaxy movie might give a tp or two on how the cameo came about https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aPlPQVl0OjU But if Howard was to make another cameo I think Doctor Strange might be it. Yet in a much smaller way (like mention or background object), mostly for a nod to Gene Colan for doing art for both series.

Probably because Rocket Raccoon and Howard are the two most well known anthropomorphic characters in the Marvel Universe?

Whatever... the Howard the Duck movie was great! But I will agree with you that the costume version is superior to the GoTG version. I recently rewatched the movie and the commentary features on the special edition DVD... much respect to Ed Gale!

SPOILER ALERT FOR Guardians of the Galaxy......
Looks like your dream has came true...Stan Lee is indeed in GotG and Howard the Duck appears with The Collector in a scene that plays after the credits......

This totally made my day! I think I was the only one still in the theatre by that point, but I bet people outside could hear me whooping it up!

Saying something should happen or guessing isn't the same as predicting or calling.
