Kang

Getty So far, the only cast member confirmed for Avengers: The Kang Dynasty is Majors, who will be playing the titular character. However, because the film is touted as an Avengers team-up, there will likely be appearances from Paul Rudd (Ant-Man), Benedict Cumberbatch (Doctor Strange), Anthony Mackie (Captain America), Jeremy Renner (Hawkeye) and Mark Ruffalo (Hulk), among others. "We're dealing with myths: what is a 'Kang'? What is a movie? You know, what is an MCU movie? What does that mean? What's that look like?" Majors explained. "Those are the questions we are asking, but all of that works when it's grounded and really, really really, tucked into the given circumstances of what's going on between these people and what we can illuminate for ourselves as a species."

No… but yes. Despite having no natural super-powers, Kang has an indomitable will and super-genius level intelligence. He learned how to use the Benefactor’s time device and became an expert in his future’s advanced technology, creating battle armor that endowed him with what seemed like superhuman abilities. His armor enabled him to project radioactivity WHEN IS KANG? Often ahead of his time, Kang (and anywhere across the Multiverse.

World domination, of course. But when it comes to Kang Prime, love is a deep motivator too. After abandoning the Scarlet Centurion identity, Nathaniel tried to return to his native time but ended up in Earth-6311’s 40th century when the world was decimated by war. While there, he assumed the moniker Kang the Conqueror, and became a warlord replete with an army.

On Wednesday, August 18, Kang will headline his own comic series in [ RELATED: ] To truly understand Kang, the first thing to know is that there are countless variations of him across the Multiverse. Actually, an infinite number. But in the end, everything comes back to Nathaniel Richards. As his last name implies, Kang is related to the RAMA-TUT FIRST APPEARANCE: This is the version of Kang that we’re most familiar with, a few years after he abandoned his Rama-Tut identity. After conquering the future and earning his title, Kang traveled to the present and challenged Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. He almost beat them his first time out too, although he has never been able to fully defeat the [ RELATED: ] IMMORTUS FIRST APPEARANCE: And here’s where Kang goes infinite. AVENGERS (1963) #267 introduced the Council of Kangs, which was essentially a gathering of Kangs from thousands of different timelines. But with full Council of Cross-Time Kangs. It’s important to note that not all of these Kangs were variants of the original. Some were creatures and aliens who usurped the role of Nathanial Richards’ Kang in their own timelines. The prime Kang despised the Cross-Time Council, and he later sicced interdimensional space-cloud More recently, When you’re a time traveler, you can afford to be patient and plan for the long term. That’s why a divergent Kang adopted the persona of Victor Timely. Almost a century before the rise of the Avengers, this variant of Kang was leaving his mark on...

In space, no one can hear you scream — but that doesn't stop an evil-doer from trying. This week, Polygon celebrates The trouble is that Kang, with his one-dimensional villainy and retro-Silver Age sneering, has become synonymous with impenetrable storylines that are about 10 steps too complicated for their own good: navel-gazing, self-referential comics that obsess over their own continuity for continuity’s sake. You would think, if you were a multidimensional warlord from the far-flung year of 3000 A.D., that life would at least be interesting. But boredom, ironically, is a sensation that Kang himself would be the first to sympathize with. This, readers, is an unconscionable crime greater than any Kang himself could have devised. There is, or ought to be, nothing boring about a garishly costumed, flamboyantly over-the-top, multidimensional time-traveler who periodically dresses up like an Egyptian pharaoh for kicks. All of which is to say, Kang is great when Kang is recognized for what he is: the silliest damned villain in the Marvel multiverse. Who is Kang? Image: Marvel Studios Born Nathaniel Richards in a distant 31st century where war, conflict, and struggle are unknown, the man who would become the Conqueror found it all utterly, interminably dull. Resolving to emulate the deeds of great warlords from Alexander and Genghis Khan onward, he thus jetted backward through time for the cheap thrill of conquering everything and everybody in his path. (If you’re wondering, ...

The finale episode of Loki didn’t just When we last saw Loki and Sylvie in episode 5, they were trying to get past Alioth, a scary storm monster that gobbles up time and reality itself, to find the mind that created the Time Variance Authority, ripped variants from their timeline to work in it, and made them all think that they were doing it for the all-knowing Time-Keepers. This episode, they found who they were looking for — exactly the character the show had been tiptoeing around all season. [ Ed. note: This piece contains spoilers for Loki’s season finale, “For All Time. Always.”] Image: Marvel Studios Loki and Sylvie met As Loki’s He Who Remains explains, he was once a human scientist living on Earth in the 31st century, when he discovered the existence of the multiverse and reached out to contact his infinite multiversal selves — many of whom were, of course, also scientists who had just discovered the existence of the multiverse. But not all Variants of this scientist were particularly nice people, and some of them sought to conquer the alternate worlds they encountered, thus begetting the Multiversal War. That conflict ended when the original scientist tamed Alioth (that scary reality-eating monster), put down his multiversal duplicates, and created the Time Variance Authority to keep his own alternate selves in check. He Who Remains warns Loki and Sylvie that if they kill him, he will become more powerful than they can possibly imagine they will unleash an infinit...

This story does not contain spoilers for “ ,” but does discuss events from previous Marvel Cinematic Universe installments such as “ .” The Marvel Cinematic Universe’s next big bad is about to make his big screen debut in “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania.” Directed by Peyton Reed, “Quantumania,” out Friday, will formally introduce Jonathan Majors as Kang the Conqueror, the supervillain expected to play a big role in the next series of Marvel Studios’ film and TV projects as they march toward “Avengers: The Kang Dynasty,” announced for 2025. The first to face this new big bad of the MCU’s Phases 5 and 6 will be the multigenerational Lang-Van Dyne-Pym clan, who can also collectively be called Ant-Mans and the Wasps. The current Ant-Man, Scott Lang (Paul Rudd), is basking in the aftermath of saving the world with the Avengers, while his partner, Hope van Dyne, a.k.a. the Wasp (Evangeline Lilly), and daughter Cassie (Kathryn Newton) are busy trying to make the world a better place. But they, along with Hope’s parents Hank Pym (Michael Douglas) and Janet van Dyne (Michelle Pfeiffer), eventually find themselves back in the quantum realm and pitted against Kang. After two diverting ‘Ant-Man’ movies, the Paul Rudd-starring action-comedy franchise descends into gloppy-looking CGI overkill. Fans will recall that this is not Majors’ first appearance in the MCU. He made his debut as a character called “He Who Remains” during the first season of “Loki.” The name Kang is never mention...
