Where did Rocket Raccoon come from? Most people know him from a pretty big and fun movie, and some people know him from an epic run of the Guardians of the Galaxy comic, spun out of the cosmic event Annihilation events.

But back in the 80s, he was just a guest star in The Incredible Hulk and then headlined his own four issue mini-series, so we jumped into the time machine to take a look at his beginnings!
