** This series introduces Sarah Simms, one of Cyborg's {{Love Interest}}s from the ''New Teen Titans''.

* In the comics, Gizmo is an adult with dwarfism -- a fact only kept by his counterpart in ''VideoGame/SuicideSquadKillTheJusticeLeague'', as both ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans2003'' and ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo'' gave Gimzo an AgeLift into a BrattyHalfPint and ''Series/Titans2018'' depicted Gimzo as AbledInTheAdaptation (he's an adult, like in the comics, but is of average height instead or a little person).

** In ''Series/{{Arrow}}'', William Wintergreen was Australian and became an AdaptationalJerkass since he betrayed ComicBook/{{Deathstroke}} and ''Series/Titans2018'' depicted Wintergreen as younger than Slade and an African-American. While still depicting Wintergreen as a black man like in ''Titans'', the ''WesternAnimation/DeathstrokeKnightsAndDragons'' version of Wintergreen is truer in that he's an ally of Slade, around the same age as Slade, and -- given he's voiced by Creator/ColinSalmon using his normal voice -- presumably from the UK.
** The 2003 cartoon had its version of the ComicBook/DoomPatrol [[AdaptedOut omit]] the Chief with Mento [[CompositeCharacter replacing him as the team's leader]]. When the Doom Patrol was added to the continuity of ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo'' in that show's sixth season, while Elasti-Girl became [[RaceLift black]] and Negative Man became the [[AgeLift much younger]] Negative [[GenderFlip Girl]], the Chief is reinstated as leader of the Doom Patrol (and ironically replaces the now omitted Mento as Beast Boy's adoptive father).
** ''Teen Titans Go!'' has Beast Boy speak while in his animal forms like in the comics, when the 2003 cartoon consistently only had Beast Boy talk while in human form.

** Darkseid in the DCAU resembles his formidable comic book counterpart more than his [[WesternAnimation/SuperFriends first, weaker depiction]]. His baffling fascination with Wonder Woman, tendency to play second fiddle to Superman, the lacklustre Omega Beams, and his preference for scheming over fighting are gone. Instead, Darkseid possesses raw intellect and strength, allowing him to go toe-to-toe with the Man of Steel. He is portrayed as a looming threat, forcing Earth's heroes and villains to unite against him in the finale of ''Unlimited''. And the Omega Beams are a one-way ticket to doom, as Dan Turpin tragically discovered.
