SPOILER ALERT: We’re talking Endgame here, people!
I think we can all agree, collectively, that Gamora deserves better. The daughter of Thanos is a badass warrior and compelling female lead (in fact, the only female in the Guardians of the Galaxy, until Mantis shows up). Yet she is often underutilized and was tragically fridged by her father in Avengers: Infinity War to obtain the Soul Stone. Luckily, there are some new Gamora memes that put her in the spotlight.
But as we’ve seen in Endgame, alt-timeline Gamora is out there somewhere, and the Asgardians of the Galaxy will likely spend Vol. 3 chasing her down and recruiting her back into the team. It will be interesting to see how New Gamora is different (if at all) from her predecessor, and how her relationship with Peter Quill and the gang will unfold.
In the meantime, Zoe Saldana shared a video of herself putting on lipstick in full Gamora make-up. The video quickly inspired a rash of memes. Here’s the original:
And here are some of our favorite Gamora lipstick memes, aka sassy green things getting ready for their close-up:
