* LooseCanon: Not clearly in continuity with either the comics or the films, and taking elements of both--the characters ''look'' like their comic book counterparts (for instance, blond Peter and Gamora with yellow markings under her eyes) for the most part, but do have some of their cinematic counterparts' gear, and not clearly fitting into a timeline in either (since, for instance, the Guardians haven't met The Collector yet at the beginning).
