* SameCharactorButDifferent: Played with. The Guardians are very different in both personality and appearance than how they've previously been seen in the Ultimate Spider-Man and the first season of Avengers Assemble but more recent of Avengers Assemble have featured the updated Guardians.
** But played straight in the cases of the Collector and Grandmaster who have extremely different personalities and appearances than they do here than the Ultimate Spider-Man which is especially jarring when both shows go back to back and feature both versions of the characters.
