No, I think it two different view points.
When the Guardians first encountered AO, they were dropping like flies just from the burst of his powers.
The one with you posting the scans of, that was just a lantern to sent a message, not to kill them. He went to send them "demands"
When he fought the controller, he was fighting to kill them because they disturbed his feast time. They also weren't prepared.
