Ranking Every Marvel Animated TV Series From Worst To Best
11. Guardians Of The Galaxy
Disney
The new Guardians series may just be a total copy of James Gunn's 2014 interpretation of the comic book, but it's by no means a bad show.
What it lacks in originality it more than makes up for in character, and there's a lot to love about this merry band of intergalactic mercenaries. Of course you'd know that, given just how popular the films are, but still, the series isn't just getting by by riding on the coattails of the film. For one thing, it's animated wonderfully, and actually goes into massive detail regarding the various origins of the Guardians, something that the films themselves are yet to fully explore.
Seeing as how pretty much everyone loves the Guardians, the series boasts a universal appeal that pushes it past some of Marvel's older, and perhaps more qualitatively temperamental, animated shows. Here's hoping that there's more to come.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
