Plot edit

The premise of Cyberspace 3000 is closely linked to another Marvel series, the Guardians of the Galaxy, with the Sol III ship fleeing an invasion by the alien Badoon. This connection is emphasized by references to related characters appearing in some characters dialogue - crewmembers swear "by Korvac's mother" and also "thank Korvac" for a lucky escape.
