#half-worlders

Aside from the lack of half-world appearances and the treatment of half-world characters, the other thing that annoys me, when it comes to rocket and other half-word related topics is the lack of info on their culture and social norms. Yes, his original solo-comic, it did said that the animals had formed a society of it own with customs and traditions made from many of generations of the animals before them, but that was it. The only things we could really get out of it was in the art and little hints in the text, but it was very bare.

After revisiting the original many timse, i started to become more interest of how they would live, how they raise young, what was early education like, what was the normal family unit is like? While, I feel that rocket’s past being mysterious and lonely isn’t a bad direction to go and has a lot of potential in storytelling, I feel like some writers are starting to use that as a excuse not to develop he and his home planet any depth or backstory. It became annoying and old, as his being is now just a Greek tragedy with no end or beginning as he is forever suffering or alone in some shape or form.

Getting back on topic, I seriously feel that marvel had did a great disservice as they had abandoned it completely, despite the great potential it has. So I decided to take matters in my own hands and will start to make headcanons (and art when i get more resources) of half-world and it’s way of life.
