Finally after a bit of a wait we finally get Star-Lord’s dad, well at least in the animated series. Staying true to the comics it has been revealed, thanks to Comicbookresources.com, that Quill’s father will be J’son also known as the king of Spartax. Earlier in the series we found out that Star-Lord was half Spartax leading many to draw the conclusion that his father would be the same as in the comics.

Trekkies will easily recognize the name as the man who played Commander William Riker on Star Trek: The Next Generation. J’son will show up during the first part of a story where Star-Lord will have gone missing during a mission on Spartax.

Frakes will make his Guardians of the Galaxy debut on March 13
