Major Guardians of the Galaxy spoilers await.
Find out which Marvel characters show up in the post-credits scene and why they matter.
This may still be considered spoiler-y, though.
Its amazing how the expectations on these post-credits sequences has grown through the years.
But sometimes, a post-credits sequence is just for fun.

(spoiler time!)
The very first big-screen Marvel superhero has finally returned.
No, not that one.
No…not that one, either.
Yes, Howard the Duck.
You were expecting, maybe, Adam Warlock?
To give you an idea of what Howard was about in the comics.
The very first page of the very first issue of Howards very own ongoing series spotlighted him contemplating suicide.
The universe isnt a melodrama, but a vast panorama of banal humanity.
Heavy stuff, and not really designed to get readers to buy the rest of Marvels line.
ummmm…Howard also ran for President in 1976.
Because of course he did.
Unless…James Gunn has a plan to fix that.
We doubt it, though.
Keep in mind, one thing we havent seen hinted yet is the Collectors gift for prophecy.
Hes an Elder of the Universe and is virtually immortal.
In the comics, this is the guy who foretold the coming of Thanos.
Although, we wouldnt complain.
Theres one last little easter egg we caught, although it has nothing to do with the post-credits scene.
Yes…I think we did.
Specifically, Eson the Searcher.
Does that mean we might get anEternalsmovie someday?
Did I miss anything?
