- ―Ronan speaking his motto.

Guardians of the Galaxy
A Kree radical, Ronan continued to fight an ancient war between his people and the Xandarians. Ronan struck a bargain with the Machiavellian Thanos — retrieve the Orb, and in exchange Xandar would finally be eradicated. Ronan led his army to hunt down the Guardians of the Galaxy when they came between him and his genocidal goal.
Ronan, determined not to miss the opportunity to take revenge on the xandarians, sent Gamora to retrieve the Orb without knowing that she planned to betray him and Thanos. Later, Ronan was called by the Other because Thanos wanted to talk to him. During the meeting the Other passed belittling Ronan, eventually yelling at him for raising his voice in Thanos's presence. Ronan, tired of the Other's insults, kills him with his Universal Weapon, prompting Thanos to turn around and speak to him directly, saying their deal was still in place but he will kill him if he did not bring him the Orb.
Ronan finally tracked Gamora thanks to a message from Drax. Ronan pursued Gamora but was stopped by Drax who only sought revenge against him for murdering his family. Ronan easily defeated Drax, and Nebula called to inform him that she had recovered the Orb. Having recovered the Orb, Thanos contacted him that he hand over the Orb, but Ronan decided to stay with the Infinity Stone and informed him that after destroying Xandar he will be the next.
Ronan arrived to Xandar in his Dark Aster. When he was about to destroy Xandar the Nova Corps stopped him obstructing his vision, while the Ravagers and Rocket protected the civilians and the others decided to confront Ronan, but they were no problem for Ronan who easily won. When Ronan was prepared to kill, Rocket collided his ship with the Dark Aster causing it's destruction. When it seemed that they had defeated the Accuser, Ronan appeared from the rubble, and started to make fun of them by calling them "Guardians of the Galaxy" but only stopped when Star-Lord distracted him with a dance duel, during which Drax destroyed the Universal Weapon.
Quill immediately grabbed the Orb that almost killed him for his power, but his teammates held his hands to help to defeat Ronan, The Accuser didn't understand how simple mortals could withstand the power of a Infinity Stone, and was then killed when the Guardians used the Orb to disintegrate him.
