- In Avengers Assemble, the Horn of Proteus made multiple appearances in the animated television series. In Season 5, a variant of it was shown known as the Horn of Neptune that was also able to summon numerous powerful creatures from the ocean depths through a unique sound generated from the pattern of the shell that could generate considerable amounts of power. Tiger Shark possessed the relic and used it in his strike against the surface world where he summoned a many tentacled sea beast to attack New York. He then destroyed the relic to prevent the Avengers from calling off the sea creature but the heroes were able to replicate the sound effect to send the beast back to the ocean.
