The Big Picture With 33 movies, nine TV shows, and two specials released so far, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has taken hundreds of characters from the comic book pages and into their ambitious interconnected storyline. Besides all the heroes and villains that populate the MCU, there’s also a fair share of obscure nods to comic books hidden in the background of every Marvel Studios production.
Comic book readers will identify Lylla as the anthropomorphic otter with whom Rocket has an intense love story in Marvel Comics. Created by Bill Mantlo and Sal Buscema for 1982’s Incredible Hulk #271, Lylla is one of the talking animals originating from Halfworld, the home planet of Rocket. While the MCU didn’t explore Rocket’s past until Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.
Rocket was born a simple raccoon, a common species from Earth. However, while he was still a baby, Rocket was torn inside out by the High Evolutionary and his team of scientists. The High Evolutionary goal is to create the perfect lifeform and the most balanced society in the universe's history, and he’s willing to do whatever it takes to fulfill his duty.
The first difference between Rocket’s backstory in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and his prison file in the first movie comes from his homeworld. While the Easter egg nods at Rocket’s comic book origin by mentioning Halfworld, in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, the High Evolutionary’s animal experimentation happened in Counter-Earth. After visiting Earth, the High Evolutionary became fascinated with human culture and art. So, he used it as inspiration to create a perfect society.
