Flarkin' Awesome!
What does this mean? "Flark" is another one of those fake curse words. Does not take much imagination to realize what it is intended to replace and it is, functionally, used in the same way. Especially in the Guardians volume 2 era, Rocket Raccoon was fond of using the word often, in many forms, in many ways. So, when I decided I was going to write a Rocket-centric recurring segment for the Guardians fansite Guard the Galaxy (the best Guardians fan site), I knew that word had to be part of it. And Awesome, well, Rocket simply is. Fact.
(Although you might find some people, maybe anti-Marvelites, that would dismiss Rocket as an unawesome cute cartoony "rodent")
Don't worry, Rocky, the Raccoonatics are fightin' for ya.
Before you get into reading the segments, my first writing project for Guard the Galaxy was a self-introduction...
Flarkin' Awesome! 001 - A Talkin' Raccoon?! (This is about how RR's voice has been portrayed)

009 - That Was... Flarkin' Awesome! (Recap of my past issues and providing numerous updates since those issues were written)
