Rocket later joins the new [[Guardians of the Galaxy (2008 team)|Guardians of the Galaxy]] at the behest of his friend Starlord. It is he who suggests that the team adopt that moniker after hearing it mentioned by [[Major Victory (Marvel Comics)|Major Victory]]. Later on, when the team almost disbands and Peter Quill disappears (sent into the Negative Zone by [[Ronan the Accuser|Ronan]]), Rocket keeps the team alive and takes over as leader until they rescue Peter. This rescue attempt also involves trying to save Earth from an alien invasion. He also brings in [[Groot]] as a member, as the two had become firm friends.<ref>''Guardians of the Galaxy'' # 1-10 (2008-2009)</ref>

Rocket Raccoon possesses the normal attributes of an Earth raccoon, including an acute sense of smell, sight, hearing and touch. He is an accomplished starship pilot, an excellent marksman with the two laser pistols he carries as well as having an affinity for heavy weapons. He's also an excellent military tactician and leader, attributes that help him take charge of the Guardians of the Galaxy when Starlord is unavailable.
