Kang The Conqueror in 30 SECONDS!

Jonathan Majors appeared as Kang the Conqueror for Ant-Man & the Wasp: Quantumania, making his debut in Loki episode 6, and here's everything you need to know about the Marvel movie's new main villain Kang. The Multiverse and Variants introduced in Loki season 1 are central to the MCU's Phase 4, 5, and 6 narratives, collectively dubbed "The Multiverse Saga." Phase 6 finishes with the next two new Avengers movies, Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Avengers: Secret Wars, with Kang as the Big Bad. The MCU Kang the Conqueror is the post-"Infinity Saga" Thanos replacement.
Disney+'s Loki TV series stars Tom Hiddleston as the titular God of Mischief, or rather as a variant of Loki who was created as a result of the Avengers' time travel. Captured by the Time Variance Authority and put on trial for crimes against the "Sacred Timeline," Loki eventually learned the timeline was naturally chaotic; any moment has the potential to create a so-called "Nexus Event," a branched reality. The result was a Multiversal war, and the winners of that conflict imposed order upon the timeline, establishing the TVA to prune branches before another Multiverse could be created. Naturally, that particular strategy didn't last long when Loki arrived and caused mayhem.
Loki officially introduced viewers to Jonathan Majors as He Who Remains, who revealed the Multiversal conflict had been triggered by different variants of himself. His death meant the restoration of the Multiverse - and, inevitably, the emergence of more variants of He Who Remains, all of whom would vie for supremacy. For He Who Remains is actually a variant of a classic time-traveling villain from the comics, Kang the Conqueror, and now all creation is in jeopardy. The events of Loki led to speculation that Kang would be the next chief antagonist in the MCU, and sure enough, it was soon confirmed Kang would appear in Ant-Man & the Wasp: Quantumania. and Avengers 5 would be based on Kurt Busiek's 2000 comic The Kang Dynasty. Here's everything you need to know about the MCU Kang the Conqueror, from his comic-book origins to his Marvel movie future.
Time travel is a tricky business, and unfortunately, that means many time-traveling characters have complex backstories. In the comics, Kang the Conqueror started out as Nathaniel Richards, a descendant of Reed Richards and Sue Storm of the Fantastic Four. He was born in the 30th century, a time when the world was consumed with violence, and Kang brought about peace by conquering the planet. When he gained access to a time machine, Kang began to expand his conquest throughout history, frequently taking other identities such as Immortus, the Scarlet Centurion, or Pharaoh Rama-Tut. All of these are potential Kang variants for the MCU. The MCU Kang the Conqueror will likely have multiple variants, and there are plenty of them in the comics, even just in Earth-616.
Kang's time travel essentially turns him into a complex space-time event in his own right, and the timelines have changed around him many times. He cares little for the laws of time and has frequently interacted with his own personal history. On one occasion, this went badly wrong, because his teenage self was appalled at his future, and attempted to erase it by traveling back in time and founding the Young Avengers as Iron Lad. All the different identities of Kang, Immortus, Rama-Tut, and so on - have splintered off and become almost different beings in their own right. It's not unusual for a Kang story to see two versions of the time traveler going up against one another.
Kang the Conqueror originates from the 30th century, a time when humanity had learned to enhance its physical qualities such as strength and speed. As such, he is beyond peak human, easily operating at the kind of level seen by modern-day super-soldiers such as Captain America, as well as being an unparalleled genius and a tremendously skilled tactician. He was able to conquer the entire 30th century and extend his conquest through time into a dimension known as Limbo, which may be an analog for the Quantum Realm in the MCU. Unfortunately, Kang's greatest strength - his relentless determination and indomitable will - often serves as his greatest weakness. He cannot see a challenge without wanting to defeat it, and on one occasion (constantly traveling back to re-fight the same battle against Ultron), his persistence almost destroyed the entire Multiverse by fracturing time and space.
Kang wears powerful battle armor, and he has access to every weapon in history, including some of those created beyond the 30th century that he has glimpsed through time travel. He has incorporated summoning technology into his armor, allowing him to summon any weapon he deems necessary from the time-stream. In addition, Kang travels through history to recruit the greatest warriors, defeating them in combat and recruiting them into his army. Naturally, he prefers to lead from the front.

[@laurencefenderson6702]

Kang is also related to and connected to Dr. Doom.

[@onepieceisreal0]

I actually didn't know that

[@EternalExistence]

So the descendents of two rivals end up shagging each other ?

[@Gav0304]

So does that mean reed and doom are related too or no?

[@thetallman9531]

Marvel has never definitively said if he's related to Mr. Fantastic or Dr. Doom, but it's theorized that he may be which is why he won't try to kill either.

[@spiderman4538]

Is Kang the conqueror the actual first Kang or is he just a variant of his prime one? He Who Remains is the strongest version of Kang because he defeated his other variants, created TVA and balanced the multiverse. There is a rumor that Beyonder is coming in secret wars and he is a Kang variant. But that would be very weak. Beyonder is beyond cosmic level. He is very powerful. He is powerful than Celestials and all Kang variants and the conqueror version too. But as powerful he is, Beyonder is also not so intelligent. He sometimes becomes too out of control and picks random decisions and ruins his own plans. Gladly, the supreme god version of himself is no longer seen. The Pre Retcon is a complete god. No one, not even One Above All can defeat that powerhouse!!!"

[@Vladit0r]

Saying prime is relative because prime for us is what we have been seeing up till endgame and some things after. But that's because he who remains made the time he was from prime. So for all Kang the conquerors they are prime, but for he who remains they are what he calls variants

[@spotifyvibes319]

Dr. Doom Descendant

[@normanmccultureboy6492]

Also his love Queen Ravana is actually his weakness

[@RawbeardX]

things you need to know: Rick Sanches without alcoholism.

[@UnifiedMinds11]

Correction... might be related

[@giantorres92]

He got his a$$ handed to him by a bunch of ants tho

[@tentimetex]

Also: the Disney movie Kang is a pale, watered down version of the comic book character.

[@likeandsub8841]

Kang’s such a beast, honesty. I remember reading the Young Avengers omnibus comic, and OMG, if they show that type of power that he had in the comic, he’d be unstoppable.

[@rascalov9276]

they wont though, it'll be something bad like hulk showing up all of a sudden and comedically beating kang up or something, its gonna suck

[@andrehooker3229]

Sooo when will we get The Beyonder

[@thanosthearabtitan8722]

2030

@@thanosthearabtitan8722 😂😂😂 and watch how we be in so much awe 💀💀 also you name is epic

[@DJMoth03]

Cant wait to watch it on Feb

[@arthurlatour9485]

It’s not stated that he is a descendant of reed, or doom, that’s completely unconfirmed

[@ivancerecer5758]

I thought him being related to Mr. Fantastic is a common misunderstanding And that he is related to Dr. Doom instead

[@alfredc.knight2737]

Reed's father time traveled to a future, and down the line comes KANG. On another note as to how the movies are dictating the direction of the current comic story lines....Reed Richards discovers he has a black sister......hmmm?

[@Buharialtinee]

Thanks for sharing

[@TheScarletSlayer]

Remember that time Kang lost a war to Ultron because they just could not break through his armor and ultron eventually just threw in the towel out of pity

[@Nazoto]

He's gonna make things really confusing

[@blueferal8626]

My boys a clown He got clapped by ANTS 🐜🤡

[@Vladit0r]

Yeah but Kang still couldn't best Ultron This isn't me just liking Ultron this is in the comics look it up

[@HaloPrime212]

Well obviously not Ultron got one movie and kangs about to get an entire Phase

[@Vladit0r]

@@HaloPrime212 yeah the movies nerfed Ultron like a lot, like a lot a lot .

[@darkthorn45]

Wonder if kang will get his solo movie.

[@buggy4212]

ok sorry "iron lad"??

[@artobaron399]

they are cancelling him for dr victor von doom

[@Gldpnthr]

He was just fired

[@bw6138]

So, the Kang we got in Antman was not Nathaniel.

[@randomscontent.]

Wrong it's Reed rickards son

[@RPesh02]

Bruh the relation is literally never once confirmed only hinted that he's a decent of Reed and Doom. Literally never ever, proved it. Come on.

[@abby.x15]

He's a descendant of reed Richards

[@jenjoestar.]

Very excited

[@Trashcankicker.]

You forgot to mentioned that kang isn’t black ….

[@Qill_Rider]

Yup

[@Aesopartemis]

Actor's Acting doesn't look vicious or scary

[@jacobe3051]

He’s not related to reed

[@olapinme408]

They should of picked a different kang ,he don’t look scary or someone to be worry about he comes off more like a clown someone that’s not much of a threat ,and atleast they should of made him blue not black.

[@salamanca_edits]

So he's just a booster gold copy?

[@TorturedMongoose2003]

Kang was bested by moon knight...

[@FANTASTICFOURVSDrDoom]

I'll give you a B

[@Qill_Rider]

Nahh MCU Kang has no connection with Reed Richards because Reed is not black and there's no black Kang existed in the comics history. But woke MCU decided to go with that representation and race swapping bs.
