Before the meeting with the Collector, Drax with Rocket and Groot got along pleasantly until he and Rocket got drunk and started arguing. While the others discovered that inside the Orb was a Infinity Stone, Drax informed to Ronan where they were. Drax says why who wanted to kill him but Ronan said not to remember them. After the talk followed by a brief fight, Ronan wins easily and decides to throw Drax in a tank filled with a yellow liquid. However, he is later rescued by Groot.
During the battle to save Xandar, Drax and his teammates were introduced to Ronan's ship to attack in the way defeated Korath and many soldiers Sakaarans. When they were about to be killed by Ronan, Rocket came and crashed the Milano. About to explode the Dark Aster, in a heroic act Groot sacrificed to save Rocket and their new friends.

After the battle, he says that Ronan was a puppet of Thanos and Thanos would to be the next. Once in the Milano, Groot is seen dancing with the music "I Want You Back" by "The Jackson 5", freezing whenever Drax looked his way.
Five years after Thanos's victory, the remaining Avengers traveled back in time to retrieve the Infinity Stones and revive everyone that was decimated by Thanos's finger snap. After they successfully collected all the Infinity Stones, the Hulk snapped his fingers through the use of a new Infinity Gauntlet, thus bringing everyone back to life, Drax included.
When Thanos from another timeline appeared in the present, threatening to destroy the universe by recollecting the Stones, Drax and the rest of his fellow Guardians and Spider-Man arrived to Earth through a portal created by Doctor Strange to help the Avengers fight Thanos and his army. During the battle, Drax saved Korg from Cull Obsidian by repeatedly stabbing him the back which gave Korg a chance to strike back. The battle soon ended when Iron Man sacrificed himself when he snapped his own fingers with the Infinity Stones to decimate Thanos and his army.
In the aftermath, Drax and his fellow Guardians (minus Gamora) attended Tony Stark's funeral where Drax showed his respect to Stark for his noble sacrifice to kill Thanos and save the universe, even avenging his family's death despite vowing to be the one to kill Thanos in order to avenge his family.
After the funeral, the Guardians decided to depart from Earth, taking on a new member, Thor. Once they were all onboard, there was a light interaction between Peter Quill and Thor in regards to who was in charge. Soon, the rest of the Guardians joined in, with Drax suggesting that they should fight to decide who should be the leader of group, which the two shut down, but still left who was the leader unanswered.
Drax the Destroyer is a leading member of the Guardians of the Galaxy alongside Star-Lord, Gamora, Rocket Raccoon, Groot, and Nova. The Guardians battle the Chitauri an alien race led by Korvac. When Rocket Raccoon's ship is pulled into the Chitauri ship, Rocket fakes surrender so that they can free the captive Guardians of the Galaxy members. Afterwards, Spider-Man discovers that the Chitauri are planning to destroy the Earth. The Guardians plan to run the Chitauri ship into the sun while fighting the Chitauri forces. When their tactic does not work, the Guardians end up making their way towards the Dark Matter Cannon. While Nova and Spider-Man head to the Dark Matter Cannon, the Guardians fight the Chitauri and Korvac. After Korvac is defeated by Groot, Nova destroys the Dark Matter Cannon, and the Chitauri ship is destroyed.
Drax appears alongside the rest of the Guardians in the Disney Infinity: 2.0 Edition Guardians of the Galaxy Play-set by protecting Knowhere from Ronan the Accuser and his Sakaaran forces.
Jason Momoa auditioned and was offered the role of Drax the Destroyer, but turned it down, because he didn't want to be pigeonholed as a brute by the audience (having played several action roles) and to free himself up to direct Road to Paloma (2014).
Isaiah Mustafa, Brian Patrick Wade and Djimon Hounsou were considered for the role of Drax the Destroyer. But Djimon Hounsou was cast as Korath the Pursuer.
Drax has become accepted by the autistic community due to many of his mannerisms being similar of that to those on the autistic spectrum. The most notable being his inability to understand metaphors.
