While Kang is often less focused on cosmic scale pursuits than Thanos was, his time-travel abilities would provide an entirely different sort of challenge for the Avengers in future MCU phases. Kang also often conspires with other time-displaced versions of himself, the Council of Kangs, who could further complicate the Avengers’ efforts to combat the villain. With an extensive knowledge of the past, genius level intellect, and extremely advanced future technology allowing powerful weapons, effortless time travel, and a vast array of enhanced powers, Kang the Conqueror has been a powerful and interesting challenger to the Avengers and other teams (like the Fantastic Four). Even better, since Disney’s absorption of Fox the MCU may finally be able to use the popular character (alongside his nemeses, the Fantastic Four).Ī genius 31 st century descendant of Reed Richards, Nathanial Richards discovers time travel technology and hops around time in the pursuit of establishing his own tyranical rule-first to ancient Egypt where he adopts the identity of the Pharoah Rama-Tut, then to the far future where he adopts the identity Kang the Conqueror. With these traits and his appointment of powerful beings as his heralds (famously, the Silver Surfer) Galactus would prove a great challenge to future Avengers. ![]() Moreover, Galactus has amazing abilities due to his union with the sentience of his past universe and his consequent mastery over the Power Cosmic, vast and powerful cosmic energy. What sets Galactus apart is that his destructive potential is not caused by malice, a desire to conquer or destroy, or anything of the sort-its merely the consequence of his need to survive. which he fuels by consuming entire planets. Surviving the processes of the old universe’s Big Crunch and the new universe’s Big Bang, Galan became infused with cosmic energies and emerged as Galactus, cursed with a continuous need for sustenance. Galactus (originally Galan before his transformation) is the single survivor of the universe preceding the Big Bang of the main universe of the MCU. One figure has been heretofore outside of the MCU but has a long history of cosmic-level danger in the comics-Galactus. ![]() For lead villains following Thanos in the MCU, Earth-level threats really no longer cut it. ![]() Thanos brought a cosmic-scale menace to the MCU, his actions having consequences across the entire universe.
