Nebula and Gamora Have Something Like a Sibling Rivalry:

Gillan has talked previously about her epic fight with Zoe Saldana's Gamora and the intense training she had to do to prepare for it. The actress has indicated that the two warrior women have a complex history and dynamic. Indeed, the prelude comic reveals more about their rich backstory - more on that in a moment.

It's interesting, because in our interview with Gillan, I mentioned that it felt like their relationship in the film may have an element of sibling rivalry.

"There's definitely some rivalry going on between those girls," Gillan said. "Absolutely! And they're both extremely fierce women and so when they bicker it's like...Imagine two sisters bickering and pulling each others hair, well they fight like assassins."

"I think that there's definitely a need to impress," Gillan replied when asked if it was as if each of them were trying to win the affection of a father figure (Thanos, for example). "But they both have different motivations for that, and I would say that Gamora's more on the good side and Nebula is very much on the dark side."

We hadn't read the comic prior to the interview, but now have and it confirms that Gamora and Nebula had a figurative sibling relationship. They trained to be galaxy-class killers together under the guidance of Ronan the Accuser and in the service of Thanos.

Traditionally, Gamora is Thanos' adopted daughter (though it's unclear if she has that distinction in this version of the tale or if she is simply another trainee). Nebula goes so far as to refer to Gamora as "sister" at a certain point in their training, so it's possible that this is one big, terrifying, cult-like family. What is clear, is that Thanos is their "master" and Nebula has been with him, servant to him, since childhood.

In one frame of the comic, it looks as if she, Korath the Pursuer (played by Djimon Hounsou in the film) and Gamora all stand together.
