Star-Lord | Comics

Spartoi Emperor J'son was forced to crash land on Earth and therefore he met Meredith Quill, with whom he would conceive a child who would grow up to be Peter Quill; AKA Star-Lord. In spite of being the future ruler of Spartax, Peter was completely unaware of his destiny until one day a Badoon ship landed on their doorstep, killing his mother and bowing up their house.

From then, he grew a deep hatred for the Badoons and was determined to leave Earth. He took a job at NASA, stole a Kree ship and left Earth only to be captured by Yondu and his Ravagers. He would eventually know about his father and meet him but they soon parted away. He'd meet a former herald of Galactus, Fallen One, would team up with Gladiator of Shi'ar Empire and Thanos against The Maker.

During "Annihilation War", he assembled Drax, Gamora, Nova, Praxagora, Ronan and Talos to form United Front against Annihilus. When Ultron led the Phalanx Invasion on Kree, Peter teamed up with Bug, Captain Universe, Deathcry, Groot, Mantis and Rocket Raccoon to repeal the attack. After the battle, he re-formed Guardians of the Galaxy in Knowhere with his allies as well as Adam Warlock and Phyla-Vell.

He and his friends intervene to stop the War of Kings, met Kang the Conqueror, fought Magus and the Universal Church of Truth with a Cosmic Cube. Peter and the Guardians, along with Nova and Thanos went to the Cancerverse to fight Mar-Vel. Peter fell for X-Men' Kitty Pryde, recruited Angela and Venom as the Guardians before finally becoming Emperor Quill.

Since the beginning of the creation of the character by the creative team of Steve Englehart (Conan the Barbarian, Tarzan) and Steve Gan (Defenders, Hero for Hire) in 1976, debuting on the pages of in Marvel Preview #4, Star-Lord has remained one of the witty and humorous protagonists of Marvel Comics. Though he used to go solo in the early era, he became quite a bi-shot over the years after playing a pivotal role in "Annihilation" and "Annihilation – Conquest".

Star-Lord was also very instrumental in the second formation of Guardians of the Galaxy as well as events like Thanos Imperative, Black Vortex and Secret Wars. The popularity of the character escalated immensely as actor Chris Pratt played the role of Star-Lord in 2014's live-action movie Guardians of the Galaxy and its sequel Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.
