Here's your first look at the earlier-announced upcoming live-action adaptation of Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy with the release of the film's concept art.

Earlier last night, we covered the first portion of Marvel's Iron Man 3 panel taking place today at Hall H at the San Diego Comic-Con International and reported on the upcoming live-action adaptation of Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy. While we still find the decision to adapt the relative small-time team of superheroes a most peculiar choice, we have to admit that it is indeed a most intriguing one made with the particularly bright spot being the choice of choosing the current iteration of the team. After all, the current team of Guardians of the Galaxy, featuring Starlord, Drax the Destroyer, Gamora, Groot and Rocket Raccoon, is a better sell when you compared it to its 90s iteration. And this is immediately apparent when we have our first look at the film with the freshly released concept art from the film.

With no further ado, hit the jump to check out the concept art.
