[[WMG: The High Evolutionary will be brought back to introduce Mr. Sinister]]
With the High Evolutionary being several hundred years old and having been to Earth in the past, there is a chance he ran across Nathaniel Essex, who is better known as Mr. Sinister. Both have interests in evolution and genetic alterations. However, (much like in the comics) they are not on friendly terms. While the High Evolutionary strives for creatures with the "perfect" evolution, Mr. Sinister desires to genetically alter Humans and Mutants. The High Evolutionary will be brought back to reveal Mr. Sinister's origin, but will now serve as the [[SympatheticVillainDespicableVillain lesser of the two evils]] compared to Mr. Sinister, just to perfectly show how more evil Mr. Sinister is.

** Theory for a timeline in which Lylla survives but is a bit closer to the Sacred Timeline than Blackjack's: [[ForWantOfANail the nail]] is that Rocket sees the High Evolutionary's ambush coming, but only just soon enough to shove Lylla aside and [[TakingTheBullet take the blaster bolt]] that was meant for her. The High Evolutionary is furious at the loss of [=89P13=] but decides to dissect and examine [=89Q12=]'s brain as a backup plan. Lylla ultimately escapes, but Teefs and Floor are killed amidst the skirmish as normal.

Just as Tony Stark/Iron Man (who was the de facto leader of the Avengers) died on screen during ''Film/AvengersEndgame'', Star Lord is slated to die leading a hero team against a future foe.

** Another Blackjack O'Hare theory is that the experiment that became Floor in the "Sacred Timeline" received the more advanced upgrades of Batch 89, and some differing sequence of events led to that timeline's Rocket (if he chose that name) betraying the rest of the batch, [[BreakTheCutie embittering]] the [[UsedToBeASweetKid once sweet]] rabbit.

* Alternatively, most of the time when we focus on Groot and his closest allies, we will hear him speak normally. And then on occasion, we'll shift to the perspective of a confused outsider who is just hearing "I am Groot".

[[WMG: Will we be able to understand Groot from now on?]]
According to {{WordOfGod}}, Groot's last line is an indication that we the audience can now understand him. Will they have Groot's lines translate for us in future works, or will they keep his "I am Groot" for {{RuleOfFunny}}?

*** We can arguably see this with Ayesha of The Sovereign. She deliberately created Adam Warlock who is a FlyingBrick and more or less a SuperSoldier. This would take at least some level of creativity and inventiveness, but it's ignored.

[[WMG: Mantis will next appear in James Gunn's DCU]]
In the comics, Mantis was created by writer Steve Englehart, originally appearing in The Avengers in the early 1970s. When he left Marvel Comics and moved over to DC, where he wrote classic Batman stories such as "The Laughing Fish" and "Strange Apparitions." However, in the pages of Justice League of America, Englehart also introduced the character Willow... who was obviously Mantis by another name.

* No question at all. The DC multiverse *has* all of the DC comics within it already. Harley Quinn collects her own series. A major villain (who has even caused a crisis event), Superboy Prime, literally became a villain in the first place because, as a life-long fan of the comics, he didn't like any of the newer interpretations of the characters that he met once he found himself inside of DC comics. The same is true of any Marvel comics, which are legal documents in court for She-Hulk in the comics.

* Maybe it isn't a disguise. In the comics, it is made clear that the "One-Above-All" is a collective self-insert of the writers, artists, editors, and other people involved in comic production. In the case of the films, Lyla can have ''become'' a part of ''One-Above-All'' and served as a self-insert for the Director, James Gunn. She tells Rocket that her and Teefs and Floor have moved on to another place, but that he needs to be around for the rest of his life before he could join them, as a metaphor about James Gunn going to be the head of DC's films as he leaves the Guardians trilogy finishing on a high note that reveals it all to have been an entire trilogy about Rocket as he finds his new found family.

Much similar to ''Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania'', none of the Guardians actually die in the film. However, this may of been a deliberate choice to keep them alive until the fifth and six Avengers film. This would be similar to how Gamora was almost killed off in ''Vol.2'', but her death was delayed to ''Avengers: Infinity War'' for story purposes.

[[WMG: The High Evolutionary will return in either ''Avengers: The Kang Dynasty'' or ''Avengers: Secret Wars'']]
They wouldn't confirm THE's survival if they didn't have some plans for him in the future. Given that there are currently no plans for future ''Guardians of the Galaxy'' films, it's only logical to save a villain of his scope and popularity for the next ''Avengers'' films. If so, he'll be recruited by either Kang or the Council of Kangs and serve as a DragonWithAnAgenda looking to [[TheStarscream hijack their plans]] for the multiverse.

The real reason he was able to advance so much was [[ThePowerOfLove because of his connection to the other test subjects]], which allowed him to develop on his own instead of in accordance to The High Evolutionary's ideas. The reason that The High Evolutionary could never replicate this is because EvilCannotComprehendGood.

** It's probably worth noting that his test subjects are placed in conditions that couldn't be more antithetical to creativity if he tried: empty cages and a testing regime overseen by a ControlFreak followed by a meticulously planned society he destroys if it diverges from his design, and when his creations make a videogame he dismisses it as derivative of others immediately. It's possible his subjects are perfectly capable of creativity and it's just stifled, ignored, or exterminated; the reason he acknowledges it in Rocket is because Rocket bested ''[[ItsAllAboutMe him]]''.

** One good way to do this would be to have Blackjack O'Hare appear, and then later be revealed to be a Floor variant with numerous upgrades, possibly one whose Rocket died.
