The Guardians of the Galaxy animated series featured some of the most interesting characters from the Marvel Universe. The series adapted many of the characters from the comics perfectly and managed to tell an entertaining story for three seasons. There were some changes to minor characters throughout the show, and others were given an entirely new power set or storyline, including a forgotten member of the Black Order, Supergiant.

Supergiant was introduced in 2013 in the first issue of Johnathan Hickman's Infinity. She is a telepathic parasite and a child of Thanos. The rest of the Black Order appeared in both the Guardians of the Galaxy cartoon and the last two Avengers movies. However, Supergiant was excluded. The cartoon also changed her powerset to reflect the Hulks by allowing her to grow in size and strength. Surprisingly, the show also revealed that she had dated a member of the Guardians.

The Guardians cartoon is no stranger to dropping interesting facts about characters, but in Season 1, Episode 6, Star-Lord drops a doozy when he confesses that he had once dated Supergiant. This fact was both surprising in the show and for fans of the character because it never even happened in the comics. Of course, this revelation affected the relationship his relationship with Gamora.

Fans of Peter Quill and Gamora are probably very aware of their relationship in film and comics. The two have had an on-again, off-again relationship for many years. But underneath all the drama, they really do love each other. The cartoon opts to focus more on the overall story and teases their relationship throughout the course of the series.

The characters on the animated series aren't nearly as layered as they are in the films or comics. A lot of their true feelings are masked with sarcasm, like Gamora's attitude when she finds out Peter dated Supergiant. The moments where characters do become more serious tend to pay off, though. This is why the "will they, won't they" relationship between Peter and Gamora is so special. Much like the comics, the revolving door of characters can occasionally sideline development. But the moments where the characters are explored make it worthwhile.

Guardians of the Galaxy covered a lot of ground in three seasons. However, by the conclusion, a lot felt like it was set-up for the future in terms of character. There were many big events and characters, but since those developmental moments were sidelined, characters like Peter and Gamora never got the full relationship they deserved.

The revelation that Supergiant dated Quill was a fun piece of information that could have been fleshed out more had there been more time. While it is nice to explore the universe, the most heartfelt moments are relegated to blink-and-you'll-miss-it scenes that feel half complete. That being said, Guardians of the Galaxy was a great show to introduce fans to more characters, and the inclusion of Supergiant was a fun and welcome addition.
