Nova Corps / Carol Danvers





This is pretty cut and dry as far as the Nova Corps goes, no surprises here. However, I believe that the woman standing behind Officer Rhomann Dey (played by John C. Reilly) is Carol Danvers, the former Ms. Marvel, aka the current Captain Marvel. My speculation is based on the Captain Stripes on her left label, as is matched by same stripes in the comic panel shown above. Additionally, as focus is made on making sure efforts align in both the comic and movie realms of the Marvel Universe, Carol Danvers is already slated to be teaming up for cosmic adventures with the Guardians in the comics.





Thanos' Ship





This frame comes from the end of the trailer and shows the Guardians in a space ship coming upon... well... this... space... skull... thing... Again, this is just my speculation, but the space-skull-thing from the trailer is very similar to the ship Thanos piloted in the 1998 Silver Surfer animated series (seen on the right).





With all of this said and done, I need to go take a cold shower... or I might end up in the hospital... I'll let you know in 3-4 hours.













While I haven't been closely following who has been cast in which roles for MARVEL's next sure-to-be box office smashI did see quite a bit in the newest trailer that I wasn't expecting. Below I speculate on a handful of frames from the footage.Trent Hunsaker is the owner/operator of Death Ray ComicsFollow him on Twitter: @apartofhim
