The Abilisk is a monster that appeared in Marvel Studios' Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.
Background
Attacking Sovereign
The Abilisk appeared on the planet Sovereign, drawn by their Anulax Batteries and began feeding on them. The Sovereign, believing that it was beneath them to fight the Abilisk themselves, they hired the Guardians of the Galaxy to kill it.
Battle on Sovereign
The Guardians set up a trap for the Abilisk. When the Abilisk returned to feed on the batteries, the Guardians attacked it, with a large battle taking place. It saw one of the Guardians running toward it and simply swallowed him. With two other Guardians drawing its attention, the Abilisk looked up, snapping at them. To its surprise however, Gamora drew her sword and drove it into its injury, cutting the creature open. The Abilisk collapsed, with it dying soon after from "blood" loss.
Other Appearances

- Energy Blasts: The Abilisk was able to shoot energy out of its mouth during the Battle on Sovereign.
