The Kang Dynasty May Be Improving Infinity War"s Best Villain Trick
Avengers: The Kang Dynasty may be borrowing a key trick that made Avengers: Infinity War one of the greatest superhero movies of all time. Kang the Conqueror (Jonathan Majors) and his many multiversal variants are currently poised to become the next main antagonists of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which is currently in the midst of its Multiverse Saga storyline. Kang and the otherworldly assembly of variants known as the Council of Kangs will take on Earth's Mightiest Heroes in The Kang Dynasty, leading into the events of Avengers: Secret Wars, hopefully making their mark on the franchise in the process.
Before Kang, Thanos brutally challenged the Avengers during the events of Infinity War, gathering the six Infinity Stones in order to wipe out half of all life in the known universe. Despite his truly heinous actions, Thanos quickly became an iconic character and is often considered to be one of the greatest villains in the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe. As Kang attempts to step into the Mad Titan's place, the Multiverse Saga's chief antagonist will inevitably draw comparisons to his predecessor. However, The Kang Dynasty may prove that Marvel has learned all the right lessons from Thanos's crusade in Infinity War, foreshadowing great things for Kang's character.
