Drax is one of the most underrated members of the Guardians of the Galaxy, but he’s certainly not perfect in his personality. Violent, chaotic and with an odd sense of humor, Drax has put himself in a number of unfortunate situations.
He’s done many things that could be considered shameless for a variety of reasons. While the rest of the team isn’t exactly innocent, it is the turn of Drax the Destroyer on our quest to explore 10 of the most shameless things he has ever done.
THREATENING GAMORA
Drax’s family was brutally murdered by Thanos and his forces so he is fundamentally a warrior at heart. He is constantly in search of any possible way he could damage or weaken Thanos, even targeting his family if he has to.
When he comes across the daughter of Thanos, Gamora, he doesn’t hesitate to kill her. He’s about to do the deed when he is stopped and bargained with for a much bigger price. Drax would have killed Gamora right then without any shame whatsoever though.
RISKING SAFETY
Because Drax is so concerned with stopping Thanos and his forces he actually puts everyone he knows in danger. During a drunken moment of anger, he finds one of Ronan’s troopers and gets him to bring the alien to the planet.
Ronan comes down and Drax tries to kill him but is very quickly defeated. This only put the inhabitants of the area in danger and the other Guardians who had to try to defend themselves after Drax’s very stupid mistake.
BULLYING MANTIS
Mantis and Drax have a cute yet extremely odd relationship. Throughout their time together Drax has actually been known to bully Mantis. He has called her ugly and made her extremely self-conscious, but has also acted as a good friend.
The behavior is a bit confusing but he does treat everyone like this. If anything it shows that he likes Mantis more than most. Although he did put her in a nasty situation where Rocket could have very easily bitten her fingers off!
RAMPAGE
After the death of his family, Drax went on an unstoppable rampage, earning the title of the destroyer. In his wake, he left death and destruction without really understanding the consequence of his actions on the families of others.
He’s still redeeming himself now by saving the galaxy but served some time in prison for his crimes. However, he’s never actually realized how dangerous he had become and would likely do the same thing again if left to his own devices.
PRISON BREAK
Although he should have been serving more time for his actions, he instead jumped on board with the Guardians and went through with a prison break. During this mission, he actually attacked a number of the Nova Corps guards.
Not only did he, therefore, break a lot of intergalactic laws and cement himself further as a criminal, but he endangered a lot of good people with the use of the anti-gravity and his violence in pursuit of freedom.
SCARING GROOT
Groot seems to have a real fear of Drax although we’re not totally sure why. The destroyer must have done something to Groot to make him feel this way. However, as time goes on, Drax goes out of his way to mess with the little twig a bit more.
Eventually, the two learn to love each other and Groot even feels comfortable sleeping on Drax’s shoulder. However there was a lot of torment before they managed to get to this point. Drax is completely shameless about messing around with essentially a kid.
LITERAL THOUGHTS
Drax comes from a species of aliens that are extremely literal. Although the character is one of the funniest in the Marvel Cinematic Universe due to his lack of understanding and very literal take on things, he does sometimes get completely the wrong end of the stick.
However, this is something he is rightfully not shameful for. It’s just his personality and the way in which he understands things. He certainly shouldn’t be made to feel stupid just because his species work in a very different way.
MURDEROUS JOY
Speaking of finding things funny, Drax actually takes a lot of joy in murdering people. This is something he probably should feel a bit more shameful about. The other Guardians are just as guilty when it comes to taking lives though.
Drax often finds it hilarious to kill people, even if they are not a direct enemy to him. He laughed his way through the prison break and couldn’t help but enjoy fighting giant aliens. The only time he has really been serious is when fighting against Thanos.
BELITTLING QUILL
Star Lord is the Captain of the team but that doesn’t stop Drax from trying to make him feel as small as possible. Whether it’s being creepy over his and Gamora’s kiss, backing Thor as the leader, or telling Quill that he’s actually quite pathetic.
Worst of all is when Mantis revealed Peter’s attraction towards Gamora which Drax just wouldn’t let go of. He laughed for so long and his reaction was really over the top. It made Quill feel really uncomfortable although was pretty funny to everyone else.
ATTACKING ROCKET
Drax can’t really hold his alcohol that well. On a mission with the Guardians, he and Rocket decide to go off drinking and gambling. The conversation quickly turns personal and then goes from deep to heated in a short space of time.
The two have a lot to mourn but for some reason felt the need to compete over who had more grief. This leads to Drax actually attacking Rocket which shows the violent nature of the character. We’d like to think he wouldn’t physically attack the Raccoon now that they are closer.
