The Demolisher is a fearsome creature driven only by the desire to fight and destroy. If there's no one to fight for pay, then he'll fight for pleasure. His victories are witnessed - and opponents drummed up - by his sidekick, the Dirge. The Demolisher lands on Third Earth to challenge Mumm-Ra, not knowing that such a challenge is made futile by Mumm-Ra's immortality. When he has defeated Mumm-Ra and is about to destroy him forever, Mumm-Ra flees into the Pyramid, summoning the Demolisher after him. There, he indicates Lion-O's image in the Cauldron, taunting the Demolisher and inciting him to challenge the Thundercat. Lion-O's initial reaction to the Demolisher's challenge is to avoid a fight, but he is eventually forced to defend himself. The fight reaches a stalemate, which Lion-O breaks by summoning the other Thundercats - not to destroy the Demolisher, but to prevent him from fighting until he effectively destroys himself. Respecting the Demolisher's prowess and courage, he tries to persuade him to fight for the Code of ThunDERa, but the Demolisher is driven only by violence and he teleports himself and the Dirge back to his spacecraft, leaving Third Earth forever.
