Drax the Destroyer

Drax the Destroyer (Arthur Douglas) is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by Jim Starlin, the character first appeared in The Invincible Iron Man #55 (February 1973).

The character's origin story relates that Arthur Douglas was a human whose family was attacked and killed by the supervillain Thanos. Needing a champion to combat Thanos, the being known as Kronos took Arthur's spirit and placed it in a powerful new body, and Drax the Destroyer was born. Drax's powers included enhanced strength and resilience, flight, and the ability to project energy blasts from his hands. The character often battled Thanos, and on occasion the superheroes Captain Marvel and Adam Warlock. He was also a member of the group known as the Infinity Watch.

In 2004, the character lost his flight and energy blasts, and a portion of his strength and resilience. This version of the character played a role in the crossover comic book storylines "Annihilation" and "Annihilation: Conquest", and became a member of the relaunched Guardians of the Galaxy.

Drax has been featured in a variety of associated Marvel merchandise, including animated television series, action figures, and video games. Dave Bautista portrayed the character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe films Guardians of the Galaxy (2014), Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017), Avengers: Infinity War (2018), Avengers: Endgame (2019), Thor: Love and Thunder (2022), Guardians of the Galaxy: Holiday Special (2022 television film) and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2023). Drax also appears in the Disney+ animated series What If...? (2021).

 * A version of Drax appears in Ultimate Marvel: Earth-2. This version is reimagined as a formerly regular bulldog who was selected as the pilot of an experimental NASA space capsule during the space race and was set to be one of the two first dogs (along with his adopted brother Lockjaw) in space, until a crack in the ship's hull created an explosion which hurled Drax and Lockjaw towards a radioactive energy imbalance. As a result, he became able to transform into a feral alien beast with the abilities of increased strength, teleportation and to shoot nuclear energy from his mouth. Two years later, he and Lockjaw were soon found and retrieved by Nathan Quill during his first adventure in space as Star-Lord and, Drax became his loyal companion after they developed a telepathic link as Lockjaw stayed with Kit Renner. Despite his somewhat hostile, aggressive nature, he is also very friendly to Nathan's friends, including Gamora and Peter Parker / Spider-Man.
