When talking about the Groot tattoo, we need to talk about who Groot is and where he came from. Being a member of the Guardians of the Galaxy, it is well known that Groot has some decent skills as he was recruited to help protect the galaxy.
Groot is a fan favorite in the 2014 and 2017 Guardians of the Galaxy movies. The only words Groot say is, “I am Groot” which for some reason can be understood by all of his compadres. In the first movie he is full sized Groot and in the second movie, you have baby Groot. Both of which are popular choice for tattoos. The Groot tattoo is usually worn by fans of the movie, but it also has meaning to those that wear it.
In this post we will talk about the Guardians of the Galaxy, from which Groot was a part of, and we will talk about the infamous Groot. By the end of this post we hope you will have a good idea about who Groot is and his crew of intergalactic saviors. By understanding this, you will have a better idea of why the Groot tattoo is so popular amongst fans.
Who is Groot and the Guardians of the Galaxy
Guardians of the Galaxy are a team of superheroes that appear in Marvel Comics. Their first appearance came in 1969. Even though this comic had strong sales, it would be five years until a follow up was released.
It was until the 1990’s that the Guardians of the Galaxy got their own self-titled issue and it ran for 62 issues and ran until 1995. That brings us to the Guardians of the Galaxy that we know today. The second volume of Guardians of the Galaxy was issued in May of 2008 and was written by Andy Lanning and Dan Abnett.
The new Guardians of the Galaxy were formed by Peter Quill, better known as Starlord. He is a human/alien cyborg hybrid and is an intergalactic war veteran. Starlord decides to form a group of heroes that will be proactive in protecting the galaxy. One of the members of the team that he created is named Groot.
