Description
This page from Annihilation: Conquest #6, released April 16, 2008, features Rocket Raccoon holding a clipping of Groot following Groot’s second self-sacrifice, to destroy the Babel Spire. In a moment that blends grief with hope, Rocket is already speaking of bringing Groot back using the surviving twig.

The page also sets the stage for Mantis’s precognitive foreshadowing of an imminent attack by Ultron, which unfolds just one page later. Her vision adds tension and urgency to the scene and reinforces her role as the team’s strategic compass.

This page includes both Star-Lord, Rocket Raccoon, Groot, Mantis, and Bug and contributes to the visual and narrative assembly of the modern Guardians of the Galaxy. Alongside Page 3 and Page 30, it helps document the formation of the team and showcases the artistic contributions of Tom Raney and Wellington Alves to this pivotal chapter in Marvel cosmic history.

11x17 Marvel comic art board.

Yeah, no more OAX these Conquest pages
Immolation will define the new way
Inferno is what leads us all astray
The chosen are renewed in Tom Raney
Broken, Mantis, the page befalls our fates
Revolted, woken, lead us from this place

Nowhere to hide, strengths realigned
The Babel Spire's alight
Given to flight, Star Lord's just in sight
The Babel Spire's alight

Another Raney treat! The inking by Hanna is really on point as well, especially on the Rocket Raccoon images. Has Mantis ever looked cuter than she does here? I think not!

Love all the artwork on this page.  But that second panel is truly exceptional.

I am really enjoying your art soundtrack. Like many of your pages, this one makes me want to read the story.  I love Rocket's face in the second panel. Great to see Bug too.
