Disney XD has ordered a sophomore season of its popular animated series "Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy." It was announced today by Dan Buckley (Marvel's President, TV, Publishing and Brand Management) and Joe Quesada (Marvel's Chief Creative Officer), at New York Comic-Con. The second season will continue the thrilling space adventure that follows the ragtag group of misfits that fans have come to love as they fight to protect the galaxy. "Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy" season two is currently in production and slated to premiere in 2017.

"We're pleased to give fans a new season of 'Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy,' taking them deeper into the Guardians' universe," said Marc Buhaj, Senior Vice President, Programming and General Manager, Disney XD. "The team at Marvel Animation continues to deliver great stories that capture the tone and spirit of the feature film and provide entirely new chapters to the Guardians of the Galaxy story."
