That way, all the figures can play nice on the shelf together in my own personal canon.

Pretty much the same that I do.

SHIELD is international/U.N.(they replace U.N.I.T. when that division was shut down so I can include Doctor Who stuff too!), GI Joe is American support, and the sub branches deviate from there like Earth Corps, M.A.S.K. Avengers, X-teams, etc. This way they can all hang on the helicarrier, or triskellion without any issues and also include world wide heroes.

Same to Cobra for me, I lean heavier though with my display that Doom 2099 came back in time, sent Doom to 2099 (to complete his loop and vacate the throne for him) and took over Hydra, A.I.M. and rallied the villains. Cobra (now Cobra Shocker after merging with a Japanese terrorist group) being another group they work with or occasionally have conflicts with.

This way I can troop build and intermingle them as I please, and also toss in the occasional random custom.

I'm also starting to intermingle in the DC movie figures and team building them to go with the movie Marvel/GI Joe.

Oddly kind of works too. Man of steel supes does kind of fill the movie Sentry role rather perfectly.
