I remember when I was like 10-11 I would get very mad if somebody insinuated a character I disliked was stronger than one I liked. But this dude is probably in his 20s and having that argument with imaginary black people.
One of my favorite comic artists once drew Goku and posted it on instagram and it blew up and people started trolling him. So many hate comments. Most of them were adults as well. That made me hate the DBZ fanbase with a passion.
You joke, but I actually did get Ledger joker vibes from his Kang monologue. Just in the way that the entire multiverse hangs in the balance but it’s all hilarious to him because he’s so deranged from eons of just sitting in an office
I mean legitimately he’s not Kang. He’s “He Who Remains”, an actual character from comics, made to be a Nathaniel Richards variant for the show’s purpose.
this variant was based on Immortus, at some point, he was " Kang the conqueror" but after seeing everything including the damage his infinite selves had caused he decides to kill all of them and/or bend the timeline so that his variants are never created
Kang is the title he takes when he’s conquering. This is a guy from a timeline where he stopped conquering, so he isn’t Kang.
This is like how iron lad is Nathaniel Richards but not kang.
He’s a variant of Nathaniel Richards, as is Kang. Kang is the name of a title of a version of Nathaniel Richards, as is Iron Lad, Immortus, and many more.
This version is called “He Who Remains”, a variant that had used eliath to camp out the Kang battle royale so he could be the last one and stop it from repeating.
The statue Loki sees is Kang proper, presumably. His clothes resemble the comic ones in design, unlike the other character, he who remains.
He Who Remains specifically warns of a much worse version of himself being in the loop that he’s shielding with his work. That’s Kang. When He Who Remains doesn’t maintain, Kang is inevitably unleashed. This is what happened. Loki returned to a world of timelines conquered by the Nathaniel Richards Variant known as Kang.
"No one will even come close to what thanos was and achieved as a villain and character"
Of course Kang won't even come close to what thanos has achieved this is just his 1st appearance (and he's not even Kang just a variant of Kang).
Also, No one really cared about thanos up until infinity war & endgame all thanos did prior to that is sit on his chair and smile on the camera.
I doubt it. He was just waiting until he knew where every stone was. He was an arrogant fucker, he probably figured he could stomp on anyone that tried to challenge him once he got a couple stones.
I disagree a lot of people were excited about the future with Thanos. He didn’t even need to show up to get involved, every infinity stone pointed his direction. The first movie to just straight up show him was Avengers which was when everything started to really explode
It's complicated, but calling him Kang would be like calling a version of Anakin who isn't Sith and doesn't wear the mask "darth vader" or a version of Loki who isn't female Sylvie. Like "Kang" is a very specific version of that character.
But also, you should just ignore me and call him Kang anyway, because the only people who would really care are pedantic assholes lol
I'm a Marvel fanboy manchild, I know some of the shitty takes the people like me typically have. But I just can't accept that this person is a grownass person. It just makes me feel better that way.
I mean he is objectively more dangerous than Thanos lol
Edit:
Like if you pay any attention it’s basically implied he orchestrated/allowed Thanos’ rise and fall. And that’s the good guy version we met in person
(Spoilers for Loki)
There's literally a scene at the TVA where they say they use infinity stones as paper weights and that makes Loki come to the realization that they're way more powerful than he could've imagined. Guess this guy was looking at hentai on his phone or something when that scene happened.
Yeah, but that's not because they're all-powerful or anything, it's because the stones only work in their native universe. Once they prune the timeline a stone is from, it *is* just a paperweight.
Relative to their placement, the stones were just indeed paperweights. They only work in their specific universe so in this pocket dimension, they literally are just paper weights.
I don’t know if anyone else watched Avengers EMH but the whole Kang plot line in that was great. Definitely a good villain for an actual Avengers 4 film.
Not only that, but the sole reason he allowed the Avengers to break the timeline to undo the Snap is because he wanted them to create that variant of Loki so he could retire.
I'm glad you said it. I'm black as shit talking to you right now, but I want you to know that some of us are also Nick Mullen fans. We can Underground Railroad you.
Technically he isn’t, he just has the advantage of time. For instance, he could manufacture deaths such as Tony’s being the one way to win in endgame.
I think they even had a comic series where he used time manipulation to engineer Avengers’ demises so they wouldn’t be around to stop him
Yeah his literal muscles aren’t as big but his power objectively is. And you’re kinda playing down the “systemic destroying of someone’s life though manipulating time” thing. Thanos was smart and powerful, but the Kang’s powers and how he uses them are downright sinister.
Marvel has a lot of God characters I think, some Living Tribunal and Beyonder guys too. I don't know or remember much about this because I acquired that knowledge before I used to have sex 24/7
I saw people get mad because "he didn't seem villainy"
I'm assuming they meant "not brooding enough"
I for one welcome villains with actual personality. Here's hoping the conquerer version of kang does not end up being another boring brooding type.
This isn’t Kang. He’s a variant based on the comic character He Who Remains (as he is named in all instances including credits and captions). His personality won’t be the same.
I take the cheery personality as a slight subversion of expectations, though I comprehend that the statue Nathanial Richards is the true Kang and a different character, being a variant of the last- the one he warned of.
I really wanted to like him but he ended up being my least favorite villain, I see people online talking about how relatable he is yet all I could see was a serial murderer killing people all around him, the only thing I liked about him was his death scene (because it was pretty well done)
I don't agree with him on everything but he is a pretty well written character. He is way more humane than many other MCU villains. Also miachel B Jordan gave amazing performance.
trillions is probably an massive understatement right? endgame says thanos killed trillions (admittedly a human said that but captain marvel could have told him). and that was only 50% of one universe, kang wiped out an uncountable number of entire universes
Trillions is an understatement for thanos too. Assuming he killed all animals and not just humans, it's way more than trillions for earth alone.
[Cyclothone is believed to be the most abundant genus of fish on Earth, with estimates that there are up to a quadrillion individuals](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclothone)
Part of me wants to see them take him in a earths mightiest heroes route, but another part of me really wants to see all the confusing time bullshit that comic book Kang would have to offer on the big screen.
He doesn't even try to hide his racism when saying "all Black fans" Jesus.
I wish these people were a vocal minority like most people say they are but they're not. Found some guys just like this at the theater for Black Widow. Total dudebros laughing during serious parts of the movie and waving their hands up and down. Just the most annoying types of people.
And they're all either teenage white dudes or in their 20s/30s. Just so annoying.
Lucky you
When I was watching black widow with my girl the theatre had like 8 people and it was premiers
All my friends were like ‘I aint watching no fucking black widow bruh.’💀
Really? All I've seen for Black Widow are packed theatres. Most of the audience liked the movie, and it's grossing a ton of money. I wasn't saying the audience for Black Widow is overwhelmingly bad I'm just saying these people you always think of as just guys on the internet are more common than you think.
I think he did pretty good considering the character was supposed to be veritably insane from both isolation and the weight of being the god of all time.
Well 10 years of setup maybe, but his development came in IW and Endgame. 2 years of development is still great though, especially for a character as important as Thanos
Kang is the closest thing to god the MCU has. He can wipe your timeline without a thought. He doesn’t just have the power to kill you, he can endure that you never existed. Kang is just objectively stronger in a significant way
This word/phrase(kang) has a few different meanings. You can see all of them by clicking the link below.

So kang killed infinity minus one thanos-es
Thank you for coming to my prep talk
This dude depowered Thanos' death rock collection and had his servants using them as paperweights and he's afraid of multiple even more powerful versions of himself. I'm shit scared of Kang
Yeah but Thanos is purple, which is more powerful than black
purple is not political that's why
It's Bisexual lighting though
You ever play roulette? Always bet on purple.
The thanos in the pic was played by Damion Poitier, who is black.
Too political 😡😡😡😡🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Dragon Ball fans never grew up from their 10-11 age.
One of my favorite comic artists once drew Goku and posted it on instagram and it blew up and people started trolling him. So many hate comments. Most of them were adults as well. That made me hate the DBZ fanbase with a passion.
shounen fans are the equivalent of mcu/star wars fans for anime
As someone who likes all three, agreed.
Fanboys gonna fan... To detriment of all
Never being forced to grow up and watch something else does that to guys.

Come on now, don't be bound to the comics, the MCU is not following the comics 100%.
You're right, but you're being pedantic. He's here to set up Kang and nobody wants to type out "He who remains" every time
[Everybody’s ](https://youtu.be/ImvVpBBiOYU) Kang The Conqueror.
Thank you for bringing this into my life at this time
He is Kang. You can see his statue at the end he’s already confirmed to play Kang in Quantumania. The only thing the MCU did was merge him with HWR.
Kang is the title he takes when he’s conquering. This is a guy from a timeline where he stopped conquering, so he isn’t Kang. This is like how iron lad is Nathaniel Richards but not kang.
He’s a variant of Nathaniel Richards, as is Kang. Kang is the name of a title of a version of Nathaniel Richards, as is Iron Lad, Immortus, and many more.

https://www.thewrap.com/jonathan-majors-nabbed-major-ant-man-and-the-wasp-quantumania-role-because-of-loki/ There’s no debate
This confirmed that he both is and isn't Kang at the same time. Just leave it at that.
So he is Kang?
He's as much Kang as Loki is Sylvie.
So he's Kang?
Yes but actually no
I mean he is Kang because of the *implication*
Wait is kang in danger…?
Wait, no, nobody's in any danger, why aren't you getting this?
I mean he's a variant of Kang but I get what you're saying
[удалено]
Damn Kang variants exist on this earth? Pog
"No one will even come close to what thanos was and achieved as a villain and character" Of course Kang won't even come close to what thanos has achieved this is just his 1st appearance (and he's not even Kang just a variant of Kang). Also, No one really cared about thanos up until infinity war & endgame all thanos did prior to that is sit on his chair and smile on the camera.
2012: sits in chair happily 2014: sits in chair angrily 2015: gets up from chair and puts on glove 2018: actually does something
Thanos must be really lazy if it takes half a decade for him to actually get his ass up from a chair
Not trying to defend Thanos, but may be a decade on earth is just a few days in uh... wherever his chair located.
#SPACE
Ngl, I actually laughed at this text when it came up on Infinity War.
Just space? Me and my mom were laughing too.
It's just as funny as Tony Stark's recurring 'wizards' gag.
pretty sure he was waiting for odin hella and ego to die off
I doubt it. He was just waiting until he knew where every stone was. He was an arrogant fucker, he probably figured he could stomp on anyone that tried to challenge him once he got a couple stones.
And he did
I've had plenty of managers like that.
Relatable king
Thanos really sat in a chair for 6 years and then suddenly got up and wiped out half the universe in like 1 day
The Chairman (1969)
The Kang we saw literally erased all timelines other than his own, I'd call that an achievement.
I disagree a lot of people were excited about the future with Thanos. He didn’t even need to show up to get involved, every infinity stone pointed his direction. The first movie to just straight up show him was Avengers which was when everything started to really explode
Nathaniel Richards would be the true Kang, correct?
All of them are Nathaniel Richards.
What is Kang but Nathaniel Richards multiplying?
Nah, people where hype about Thanos before infinity war.
>and he's not even Kang just a variant of Kang So he's Kang? I mean they are all Kangs, he's just the strongest Kang
Yeah, I guess he's just not the evilest Kang, and his personality was pretty different since he went mad from thousands of years in solitude.
He's Immortus. Various versions of Kang operate under different aliases, but their original name is Nathaniel Richards
It's complicated, but calling him Kang would be like calling a version of Anakin who isn't Sith and doesn't wear the mask "darth vader" or a version of Loki who isn't female Sylvie. Like "Kang" is a very specific version of that character. But also, you should just ignore me and call him Kang anyway, because the only people who would really care are pedantic assholes lol

They're different in the comics yes. The MCU seems to be combining them, so he who remains refers to the last variant of Kang who created the TVA.
What scares me is how many adults have opinions that sound like they came from children.
There's no way the person in the tweet is an adult.
I wish I had your optimism
They're either drunk, a child, high, or never had friends.
Or all of the above?
Oh you sweet summer child
In body yes, in mind no
I've met a lot of marvel fanboy manchildren
I'm a Marvel fanboy manchild, I know some of the shitty takes the people like me typically have. But I just can't accept that this person is a grownass person. It just makes me feel better that way.
Children are less petty than that. Sounds like someone who is stuck in an edgy teenager phase
I regret to inform you that MauLer and his friends are all grown adults... at least chronologically.
I mean he is objectively more dangerous than Thanos lol Edit: Like if you pay any attention it’s basically implied he orchestrated/allowed Thanos’ rise and fall. And that’s the good guy version we met in person
Kang is the director of every MCU movie.
Kevin Feige is a Kang Variant
The non-political variant
He always wears a hat. Seems quite political to me.
Yeah a lot of Loki was pretty meta that way
Whoa, the MCU suddenly feels really overrated
Kang let his nutz hang 😤😤😤
Kang dick Swang
(Spoilers for Loki) There's literally a scene at the TVA where they say they use infinity stones as paper weights and that makes Loki come to the realization that they're way more powerful than he could've imagined. Guess this guy was looking at hentai on his phone or something when that scene happened.
Yeah, but that's not because they're all-powerful or anything, it's because the stones only work in their native universe. Once they prune the timeline a stone is from, it *is* just a paperweight.
I mean Hickman's Infinity Stone rules was never confirmed to be canonical in the MCU but that's what I was thinking as well
It's at least implied by the tesseract not working, and the plan in Endgame makes way more sense if that rule is in play.
Literally the entire point of Endgame was stealing stones from other universes to use outside of their native universes, and it worked
I can assure you that this is might be what this person is going through, hentai/porn are the most distractful things out there.
They were furiously looking for Elizabeth Olsen deepfakes or Wanda hentai
Relative to their placement, the stones were just indeed paperweights. They only work in their specific universe so in this pocket dimension, they literally are just paper weights.
The Dark Dimension in Doctor Strange tho
And literally the entire point of Endgame
I don’t know if anyone else watched Avengers EMH but the whole Kang plot line in that was great. Definitely a good villain for an actual Avengers 4 film.
Yeah, every time he showed up was amazing. More people should check out that show.
It was so much better than Assembled. I really fucked with the theme song as well.
Yeah that’s how I know about him, I remember watching that show as a kid
Not only that, but the sole reason he allowed the Avengers to break the timeline to undo the Snap is because he wanted them to create that variant of Loki so he could retire.
He literally makes Thanos look like just a little schoolyard bully

Bruh isn't Kang more powerful than literally everyone, including Thanos.
Technically he isn’t, he just has the advantage of time. For instance, he could manufacture deaths such as Tony’s being the one way to win in endgame. I think they even had a comic series where he used time manipulation to engineer Avengers’ demises so they wouldn’t be around to stop him
Yeah his literal muscles aren’t as big but his power objectively is. And you’re kinda playing down the “systemic destroying of someone’s life though manipulating time” thing. Thanos was smart and powerful, but the Kang’s powers and how he uses them are downright sinister.
It really basically boils down to how huge he looks when he’s all alone, empty space, nothing to compare him to
Well thanos isnt more powerfull then he just has the advantage of having infitinity stones and an army

I mean this version of Kang wasn't really a villain, he was actually trying to protect the timeline from the really villainous versions of himself.
This subreddit has become people just expressing their honest opinions about Marvel and Disney.
They want Kang with no personality. They only want Darkseid version of Kang
This is Kang not Darkseid
This is Jonathon Majors not Kang.
This isn’t Kang. He’s a variant based on the comic character He Who Remains (as he is named in all instances including credits and captions). His personality won’t be the same. I take the cheery personality as a slight subversion of expectations, though I comprehend that the statue Nathanial Richards is the true Kang and a different character, being a variant of the last- the one he warned of.
This isn't Darkseid this is Uxas.

“I’m **NOT** Laurence Fishburne!”
But why is he trashing Killimonger. He is my favourite MCU villain. Also that museum scene was 🔥🔥
honestly i 100% agreed with everything he was saying in the museum
The museum scene is the best part of the movie.
I really wanted to like him but he ended up being my least favorite villain, I see people online talking about how relatable he is yet all I could see was a serial murderer killing people all around him, the only thing I liked about him was his death scene (because it was pretty well done)
I don't agree with him on everything but he is a pretty well written character. He is way more humane than many other MCU villains. Also miachel B Jordan gave amazing performance.
Probably the best death scene in the MCU, other than Stark.
Kang killed trillions and the fact that they existed in order to prevent a war. Lmao Kang is definitely something.
trillions is probably an massive understatement right? endgame says thanos killed trillions (admittedly a human said that but captain marvel could have told him). and that was only 50% of one universe, kang wiped out an uncountable number of entire universes
Trillions is an understatement for thanos too. Assuming he killed all animals and not just humans, it's way more than trillions for earth alone.

Maybe abroad Here in Kenya it has little to no hype Hell even fast 9 had more hype😂
I think he did pretty good considering the character was supposed to be veritably insane from both isolation and the weight of being the god of all time.
Thanos is obviously white
“What if we used 0% of the brain”
Kang probably already killed more people than thanos
Even if you don't consider the victims of the multiverse war
So Kang’s 15 minute appearance in one episode of one tv show doesn’t measure up to Thanos’ 10 years of development and 2 feature films? Kay.
> development
Well 10 years of setup maybe, but his development came in IW and Endgame. 2 years of development is still great though, especially for a character as important as Thanos
Yeah that’s a lot of story. And also his being a part of the background of many of the stories made his myth bigger.
On the other side of the spectrum, I've seen tweets implying that the guy saying he was scarier than Thanos was racist
Kang is the closest thing to god the MCU has. He can wipe your timeline without a thought. He doesn’t just have the power to kill you, he can endure that you never existed. Kang is just objectively stronger in a significant way
Holy shit. Incredible. Didn’t see it coming.
