| Origin |
| After assisting
Black Bolt
of the
Inhumans, Prince Jason of Spartoi was accused of betraying the
alliance between the Spartoi and Shi'ar empires. Going into exile deep
into space, Prince Jason was eventually recalled to by his father; but his
ship converter blew and apparently slipped backward in time to Colorado of
the early 1960's. Found in the mountains and nursed to health by
Meredith Quill, Prince Jason fell in love with the Earth woman and they
conceived a child. Eventually departing back to the Spartoi Empire,
Prince Jason mindlocked Quill to prevent her from remembering him and
suffering heartbreak. In the decade that passed,
Meredith Quill's son Peter dreamed of space and becoming and astronaut.
It wasn't until his mother's death at the hands of his father's rivals that
Peter Quill resolved that a destiny in space was his only means of
vengeance. Accepted by NASA into the astronaut program and though a
series of events which brought him into the presence of the celestial Master
of the Sun, Quill was transformed into the Star-Lord. |
