Kangs

Today sees a brand new Avengers #1, with a brand new team created with Avengers from the past, with a Captain Marvel leading again.Today sees a brand new Avengers #1, with a brand new Avengers team, all created with Avengers from the past. No new names, well with a Captain Marvel leading again, no one wants another Doctor Druid situation. But this comic book asks why Avengers might even want to be an Avenger anymore. They've been through a lot. Tony Stark and Thor are givens. Their motivation is never changing. But what…

Meanwhile, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania made a lot of mistakes, but its number one biggest goof has now been identified — and it could cause an enormous headache for Marvel Studios as the Multiverse Saga expands. Amid Jonathan Majors’ career collapse, Marvel fans think…

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania writer Jeff Loveness will also write Avengers: The Kang Dynasty, the first Avengers movie of the Multiverse Saga. And Loveness has shared various seemingly innocent spoilers about Avengers 5 so far. The upcoming movie will feature the same villain as Quantumania, Kang (Jonathan Majors). Well, Kang Dynasty will probably deliver a collection of Kangs fighting the Avengers, but they’re variations of the same character. In a new interview, Loveness dropped another big Kang spoiler…

Image via Marvel Studios We’ve already seen the mega MCU villain Kang defeated twice, but that’s the thing with a multi-variant all-conquering foe from the far future — the big battle is still to come. The second massive story thread of the MCU, the Multiverse Saga, is weaving a different route to the Infinity Saga that spanned the franchise’s first three phases. We have more warning on the epic Avengers two-parter that will close the saga in 2025. The first of those films already has a name, Avengers: The Kang…

Image via Marvel Studios The first Ant-Man movie established that spending protracted periods of time in the Quantum Realm can upend your brain chemistry, and we can only assume that’s what’s happened to the cast and crew of Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, as a couple of them are making some rather bold claims about the threequel that’s receiving a widespread thumping. In the same vein, Marvel can only plead insanity for cutting what would’ve been an epic fight scene involving Kang the Conqueror… Ant-Man 3…

via Marvel Studios There’s so much about Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania‘s third act that fans practically detest, from the treatment of Corey Stoll’s M.O.D.O.K. to the tacky restaurant coda scene. The conclusion’s biggest crime for many, though, is how Kang the Conqueror is ultimately defeated, with few being fond of the way Jonathan Majors’ temporal tyrant is taken out by a swarm of ants. To misquote Killmonger, is this your big bad? Having Kang, touted as the greatest threat the entire multiverse has ever…

As a virtually immortal time-traveling warlord, the Marvel supervillain Kang the Conqueror often finds it convenient (or otherwise necessary) to adopt alternate identities for his evil schemes. These characters, retconned at various points in the ever-expanding mythology of Marvel Comics as alternate identities of Kang's, are Rama-Tut, Immortus, and the Scarlet Centurion. Any true Marvel Comics devotee watching the Council of Kangs reveal in "Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania" can guess that these three…

Image via Marvel Studios The hits just keep on coming for Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, with the 31st installment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe following up its unwanted critical reactions to start setting new lows for the franchise – and the superhero genre in general – at the box office. Obviously, this isn’t what director Peyton Reed, writer Jeff Loveness, chief creative officer Kevin Feige, or any fans imagined or wanted when the hype train was powering straight ahead at full speed, with the…

Screenshot: Marvel StudiosThe era of Kang is upon us, just as He Who Remains (Jonathan Majors as Kang) promised at the end of Loki season one if Sylvie (Sophia Di Martino) and Loki (Tom Hiddleston) didn’t agree to keep his sacred timeline intact.And sure enough, it all changed the moment Sylvie made her choice for chaotic revenge over Loki’s love, resulting in a reset that would unleash more Kangs into the multiverse. So of course it built up to Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantamania; there, we met Kang the Conqueror, who…

Kang the Conqueror is one of the most fearsome villains in all of Marvel Comics. He's able to single-handedly threaten the Avengers, and though the heroes usually come out on top, they've never stopped Kang permanently. When he isn't trying to go toe to toe with Marvel's greatest heroes, Kang is almost effortlessly taking over other timelines and realities. As Immortus, Kang is more or less immortal and in control of the flow of time itself. That said, there's always room in Marvel for a joke or two. Kang…
