Drax’s Origin In New Clips From Marvel’s Guardians Of The Galaxy Animated Series

Marvel Entertainment has released two new clips, featuring Drax the Destroyer, from their upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy animated series.

When the show begins, Drax (voiced by David Sobolov) will already be seeking revenge against Ronan the Accuser, who is the person responsible for killing Drax’s wife and child. To get close to Ronan, Drax takes part in a gladiatorial tournament that will award the winner with the “honor” of being Ronan’s new enforcer. Drax abandons his mission the moment he sees the losing combatants are being shipped off to a life of slavery.

Check out the clips in the videos below.

Guardians of the Galaxy the animated series premieres Sept. 26 at 9:30 p.m. ET on Disney XD, with two back-to-back episodes. A sneak preview of the first episode will air Sept. 5 at 9 p.m. ET.
