Biography
Draaga was an alien gladiator from Warworld who was defeated by Superman during the latter's self-imposed exile in space. After defeating Warworld's master, Mongul, Draaga- obsessed with revenge for his defeat- tried to track Superman down. He eventually fell in with Supergirl, Maxima, and Brainiac as they conquered Warworld and led an attack on Earth. However, Draaga eventually found himself siding with Earth heroes against Brainiac, a battle in which he sacrificed his life.
Draaga eventually abandons the position to look for Superman, even finding the remains of Superman's costume (torn apart during his stay) and wearing them, in a sort of homage to the warrior who defeated him. After taking a "space taxi" he arrives on Earth and challenges Superman to a fight to the death. Superman, at the time under the mental influence of the Eradicator (a Kryptonian artifact), fights Draaga in New York and on Earth's moon, and is on the verge of killing him when he is transported away from the fight by Professor Hamilton. Draaga is dragged away, unconscious, by the "space taxi" driver, who is worried about collecting his fare.
