Guardians Vol. 2: New Fan Theory Suggests Shocking Connection Between Peter Quill And Mantis
Major spoilers for Guardians
of the Galaxy Vol. 2 follow.
The Guardians of the Galaxy are a lot of a
family, at this point. In any case, their subsequent experience, was fixated on
recounting the tale of Quill's biological family, which he has had no
relationship with since his mom died and he was taken from Earth by his
assenting father Yondu.
Notwithstanding, a new and fairly tenable fan
hypothesis which is getting some forward movement in specific corners of the
Web recommends we might have met another of Peter Quill's biological relatives:
his sister.
Here is what Reddit user JMH1982 has
to say...
In the movie we get a glimpse at Peter's still
living Grandfather and we are introduced to his real father. We even get a
better understanding of his adoptive father. BUT ... is it possible we meet his
sister as well?
In the film Mantis says that Self image found her in the hatchling stage on her planet and that is the manner by which she came to accompany him. In any case, taking into account his inspirations in the film, how he went over Peter's mom and every one of different ladies in the System, also his propensity to involve his posterity for his own means ... is it conceivable that Self image deceived Mantis this time (It's somewhat how he manages his kids) and that she was his little girl. Without the capacity to create the light that Peter would be able, he kept her alive for only one explanation - she could help him rest and re-energize.I think she is a child of Ego and therefore Peter Quill's blood sister. Something I don't think he's aware of. But will be a necessary component in the future.
The theory checks out, at a glance, as Ego appears to have been trotting around the universe with the sole intention of creating and then collecting his children in an effort to pull of his "expansion" project."Still, it's not that simple...
Why Not?
While Mantis was clearly scared of Ego the Living Planet, it was likely because she had knowledge of what he did to his other kids. With Peter Quill having arrived, anxious to get to know his own father, Mantis was the only person who knew what Quill was up to.
Inner self might have essentially saved Mantis
for the reason making him rest and, conceivably, utilizing her powers on any of
his children who get familiar with reality and need to escape his planet.
The facts provided by Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 are that Mantis was an orphan taken from
her planet by Ego, a man who went from planet to planet impregnating aliens to
try and create an offspring capable of carrying the Celestial gene. This is not
too far off from Peter's story, as without his father and the death of his
mother, he was an orphan on Earth.
Here's the thing: if Mantis is actually Peter
Quill's sister, how will the world find out other than director James Gunn tweeting to
confirm? This would mean their parents are gone and no one with knowledge of
Ego's parenting them both remains to tell them the truth.
The following spot we will see the
Guardians is in their first hybrid with
the Avengers in Avengers: Infinity War. Avengers: Infinity War happens four
years after Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.
2 Thanos and their hybrid with the Avengers have likely given considerably more
to discuss than Self image the Living Planet by this point.
As the theory gains steam, Gunn may take to
Twitter to deny it, so keep your eyes peeled.
