I AM GROOT! Translated by Maximus the Mad.
Greetings True Believers! Here are four scans from Guardians of the Galaxy #17. Have you ever wondered what GROOT is always talking about? I certainly have and we finally have someone who can translate for us! Please let a certain crazyish Inhuman explain. Enjoy!

The Inhumans Terrigen Bomb has ripped the universe a new asshole and now tentacle creatures have crawled out of it and have attacked Attilan. Who will save (Or at least delay the gruesome death of) our heroes?

They win! And what is the universal gesture of victory and good times?

Slap hands! High-Five! Maximus and GROOT are totally going to be facebook friends after this is over.

	What is he talking about? He is Groot, of course. Otherwise we might forget. (Reply to this)

	well, Groot is known as The Monarch of Planet X.... heh, Maximus could very well be right (Reply to this) (Thread)

	There are few things in the universe that give me more pleasure than a comic with Rocket Raccoon in it, but a comic with Rocket, Maximus the Mad and Groot -- I'm in Nerdvana. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	That one line, "I have teams of trained experts working on it right now" somehow reminds of the Raiders of the Lost Ark ending: Re: the Ark "We have top men working on it." "Who?" "Top. Men." And then we see the handler dumping the Ark in a pile of boxes... (Reply to this)

So if Maximus is telling the truth, Groot has, in fact, been giving practical advice and suggestions all this time? Boy, that must be frustrating for him.

Groot (thinking): I have it! A simple matter of relativistic propitiation of the psychodermic automatons! Clearly, this can be accomplished by pushing that small red button over there - the one that is too small and set too deep for my finger to connect with. I shall alert my companions to this.

Groot (out loud): I AM GROOT.

Groot (thinking):...Dammit. Looks like I'll just have to smash the wall down again and hope that works.

	The danger in this, of course, is that he's Maximus. He can do all this and still figure slip in a way to conquer Attilan. (Reply to this)
