Who else was introduced to Kang the Conqueror through the cartoon series "Avengers: Earths mightiest heroes"?

That show kicked so much ass. That said, I was confused why Kang's future was replaced with an apocalypse? I know the reason was Cap apparently screwing up during the Kree-Skrull War, and a solar storm decimated Earth. That said, wouldn't that imply Cap wasn't supposed to be found in the first place? Am I missing something?

@@johnnygyro2295he was replaced by a skrull at some point, so that might have something to do with it. Maybe Skrull Cap, trying to emulate the heroism of the real McCoy, chose to save T'Challa from falling into the sun, thus allowing the Kree to open their portal near the sun. Kang didn't know about the imposter, all he saw was Cap acting in character.

if Kevin Fiege and MCU studios. had made a special feature on Kang The Conqueror exploits in the comics Ant Man:Quantumania may have been better received with critics and audiences alike
Kang is so overpowered that he is on the scale of the Incarnation of the Love, Death, and Destiny. Kang has, will, and already conquered Time itself.

That was AWESOME! The breakdown, the crisp narration (and the backing track), and a storyline of pure epicness!
Man! Kang backstories freakin' awesome! I don't know if I could make this video by myself like you did. I'm getting a headache just thinking about how much research and editing that it you had to make this video. Thank you for all of your hard work.

Wow, I’m not too familiar with Kang and easily got confused but this is the most well explained Kang video I’ve ever seen. So much more interesting details and ties to certain characters I had no idea about. Put the current MCU into prospective.
amazing video! great job
Loved the video, great work!!
Fantastic video. Thanks.
Awesome video thanks so much !
thanks for the very informative video
An epic display of content sir! Great job, informative, and exciting. Thank you
Good content keep up the great work.
HOLY SHIT I never knew how awesome Kang was! NOW THAT is how you do a time travel story!
Thanks for the video. Really sums up Kang simply
That was an epic travel through comic history. Splendidly presented. And I felt pride that Kang ended up conquering his destiny. My only questions are: What about the young Kang that Kang manipulated into becoming him, & How on Earth could the movie Kang hope to compare to this history? The comics have 60 years of stories to look at, but we don't have time for that kind of variety and depth in movies. I guess we'll see.

The best channel on on KZread. Once again you have outdone yourself. From the fan in me thank you.
Thank you for this awesome body of work. I enjoy it all.
Incredible work on this character's history! This was more like a documentary! This was so awesome you made me feel Kang really existed! Truly marvelous Indeed!
Great work I appreciated it...👏🏾💯👾
This video was awesome, I watched it before watching Quantumania, and it helped me understand and appreciate the movie much more, thank you for all the work you did to put this together! 😀
AMAZING RECAP!!! ❤. GREAT JOB 👍👌
This was EPIC!!!!! Outstanding work #MerryMarvelite!!!!
Your Hercules video is still my favorite. But this one is a very close second. I cannot hardly wait to see wha tis next.
Helluva video at the perfect time to make it. I'll definitely be watching this one more than once.
Great Job!!!
surprisingly cohesive! good job
Amazing video. Can’t even imagine the amount of research that went into it. Well done!!
Great job! I learned a lot and I thought I knew it all!
Good work 🙏🏾
So a Kang is knocked into a timeless dimension and there realizes that there are variant timeliness repeatedly failing and causing destruction. This variant then successfully plots the downfall of the others and his future happens to be the sole ruler of the timeline (roughly speaking) So is the MCU taking this route? Is the exiled Kang who we think is dead really just somewhere else learning the truth and biding his time. Is his future He Who Remains? They both solely seem to be against the multiverse interacting while the other variants are fine with it.
Fabulous job on the Rama Tut portion (with all those tie in from FF, WCA, and Doctor Strange, etc)!
Well done sir, well done, just the basics of the character and his amazingly complex time line, makes this one of your better effort
It took me a few days but I finally got through the whole video (youtube makes me sleepy) ; great research and delivery - Loki season 1 now makes a lot more sense!
very well done sir!!!
What a great video. This guy is THE comic expert on KZread! I consider myself a comic expert and have read the vast majority of Marvel. But trying to make sense of Kang always makes my head hurt. Massive respect for doing this very difficult subject so well.

@@cody5404 Comics Explained makes a lot of mistakes. He especially misses a lot of context that makes it clear he only started reading Comics around the movie boom. He didn't even know who Gateway was on his Generation X video!- How does a Comics "expert" miss 4 years of essential X-men continuity? I've been reading all of Marvel since the beginning of the Marvel Age- so I can spot a fraud a mile off. Merry marvelite is the best on KZread right now.

@@tbunating1451 in his own words- Rob has been reading comics for about 25 years (the movie years). He also seems to be entirely digital. Ask him to do a room tour of his comic collection if you doubt that? Don't get me wrong- he has clearly done an incredible amount of research in those 25 years. But for somebody like me, who's obsessive collection goes back to the 60s, he simply has way too many mistakes, gaps of knowledge and crucially a complete lack of context for many of the things he discusses. Rob is more than good enough for new comic fans learning the basics- but this channel is better for obsessive types like me who already own and probably know everything IMO.
I love all these videos
Great research
Wow incredible video. I have not seen such a well put together timeline for such a bonkers and confusing character. Amazing job, great video. Hope to see an update with Iron Lad and the recent mini included some day Also, can't tell you how much I appreciate you including all the issues and citation from your vid (in every vid). Every comic KZreadr ignores this and it's so frustrating
Stellar job
This is the most convoluted shit I’ve ever seen I love it so much
Great video. Avengers Forever did such a great job cleaning up all of Kang’s backstory, but in retrospect, I think they got rid of some things that other creators made interesting such as the TVA in the Loki tv series.
Love the content and I gotta support a fellow Canadian! 🇨🇦
i love it but the whole doom part ect and time and me smoking soo much i need to read these myself such great work dude :D thanks
Fantastic video sir! This is the best breakdown and explanation of Kang's story from the comics I've heard! And there are some great content creators doing similar and cool stuff too in regards to this. If this video doesn't get you ready for Phase 5, Quantumania, Loki season 2, Avengers: Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars in season and out of season, nothing will. You can't definitely see why Marvel Studios have made the creative choices for Kang so far in Loki season 1, Ant-Man: Quantumania, Loki season 2 and so forth. I'll be sharing this video with interesting parties for sure!
Wow, that was both interesting and incredibly confusing. It really brings home how flippy floppy comics can be. It must have been an incredible undertaking.
Cool vid
Yes! Whenever Merry Marvelite covers characters I always learn something new because of how thorough their research is!
This was sweet
Wow, huge video
This was great
Great job explaining this story! I’m sure it wasn’t easy.
The amount of moments qhen i had to exclaim "jesus tapdancing christ" has reached record levels
This is fascinating stuff and hard to fathom or keep up with but fascinating nonetheless.
What an awesome treat, today!😍
I’ll be honest I was very confused with Kang’s origins and struggled to get an understanding of who he is. I’ve seen a few “origin” videos and still couldn’t get it. This video gave me the need to know, so I can finally have a deeper discussion with my group and know what I’m talking about lol Great vid!
I have gone cross-eyes due to the very nature of the endeavor you undertook with this one, but I’ve also subscribed out of respect for it. ~_~
Love the video. As a request, I’d love to see a video on the Squadron Supreme (since they came up), maybe even the Squadron Sinister.
Really enjoyed this! I knew some things about Kang but now I feel like Kang Prime after he absorbed the memories of all the.others. Lol. This also made the MCU stuff easier to take in.
Nicely done. This is why I love this channel and especially Kang is my favorite Avengers villain. That Marvel Masterworks of Avengers 1-10 was important for me when I was 11yo Any of your favorite "council of __" is because of this villain/tragic hero
Truly you've done us all a great service and I can only hope that future iterations of yourself don't develop a dislike towards "you prime's" ever-growing youtube popularity. If so, it was nice knowing you (but I won't remember having typed this, so...).
Best Kang video!
this was 1 of the best bios U ever did
Comic book, a place where humans can fly, travel in time, but in the 31st century medical bills are still expensive as sin.
Very impressive.
One of your masterworks
very cool
Nice
Great video. I need to watch it 67 more times so I can actually understand Kang’s life.
Welp, that was crazy. I can oly imagine how confusing trying to figure out how all these divergant Kangs fit together. Amazingly done :)
Great video. 👍 I wonder where the Heroes Reborn Kang, the Kang in the Prophet/ Cable mini series or the Kang from Star Trek the next generation/ X-Men comic fit in to his timeline. Great work.

Thanks for the deep dive into Kang. His back story is so long and convoluted. The only info I had on him was from the Avengers Forever story line. But what has Kang been up to since then?
Kang's story is like an LSD trip.
Yo bro still waiting on that Gladiator video lol cant wait. Hes coming to the game I play Marvel contest of champions he was voted in just wanna see what he looks like from your prospective
Marvel needs to pay you for this particular video.
funny how MerryMarvelite can barely contain his laugh at the ridiculous universal infinity vortex Thor pulled off out of nowhere 20:12
Kang's story is amazing
Listen to Loki theme while watching this it's pretty awesome
I liked kang for a awhile but then it seemed like he turned into a giant game of being the ultimate one upper with super powers. Almost how there are some DC storyline where it turns into batman knowing the problem from the beginning and having the most ridiculous resolution to win the day.
My head canon is both Dr.Doom and Nathaniel Richards are both Khang’s ancestors since it’s entirely possible that one of both his parents are descendants the two or that the two bloodlines merged at some point in the past🤔 19:04

Can you do history of the characters mentioned in this video? So how long till you do history of the Young Avengers since Marvel is slowly introducing them in the MCU?
great video. it sucks that the mcu already spit all over kangs character. i'd suggest nobody acknowledge that garbage and preserve him as he was meant to be
So much respect for this character. Honestly don’t have faith the MCU will bring this story and characterization home. Crosses fingers
Johnathan Majors is absolutely going to kill it being KANG😈I can't wait for the movie💫and thanks for another cool video.
Man, I kinda wanna have variants of myself so we could just fight or debate or cook. You know, whatever. Seems like a hell of a nightmare that I wanna experience at least once.
man comics are insane
'THIS VIDEO IS EXCELSIOR' ..
Can you do history of the Beyonder, Crossfire, Living Laser, Iron Monger, Titanium Man, Crimson Dynamo, Whiplash, Ultimo, Darkhawk, Union Jack, Annihilus, the Badoon and the Broods?
I have a theory that Kang is actually the father of Reed Richards and creates an ultimate variant of himself named Hyperstorm in the future.
