Kang is a popular figure in Marvel. Many know about Kang the Conqueror but they don’t know how that name came about. Today I will be talking about the Origin and life of Kang, Why and how he got the title “Kang the Conqueror”. I will also be doing a recap of Marvel’s who is…….? Kang Infinity Comic Issue #1
Kang was born as Nathaniel Richards in a time when humankind had conquered all its ills such as hunger and poverty. All these ills existed only in history books. With the rise of technology, they had everything they could ever want. Machines performed tasks humans couldn’t.
They also conquered ambition, aspiration, passion and desire. There were no heroes and villains as there was no need or use of either and they were stagnant, trapped by their own success. But there was a time when humankind strove for greatness. Apart from striving for greatness, there was a time humankind raged and fought one another making their lives have a purpose and kang resolved to reach that era with the technology they had. The technology was there waiting for someone to unlock its secrets.

Kang used this to fight and he conquered. In Ancient Egypt, people called him Rama-Tut, The Immortal Pharaoh. He conquered entire nations and it was there he first tasted the glory of conquest and also a bitter lesson which was What You Conquer, You Must Rule
Kang ruled even though he didn’t care. According to Kang, this was the trap in which his people had fallen and 5000(five thousand) years before their time, it ensnared him as well. Kang was supposedly defeated by Reed Richards and his fantastic four but that is what Reed Richards thinks. Kang believes Reed Richards set him free instead of defeating him.

He then landed in an era where people of that era had ceased counting dates long before. This era was ahead of the future he originally came from. It was an age of war, death and madness. Blood-crazed raiders would murder each other with technology they barely understood and Kang believed it was Perfect and it was this era that was worthy of Kang; an era with victories to strive for and great deeds to be done.
To Kang, this era was also strange as it was one “where a conqueror bowed the knee to Love”. Kang fell in love with a woman called Ravonna. Kang fought Ravonna and she believed “she is one he will never conquer”. Kang believes she is the one who conquered him but unfortunately, Ravonna was killed in front of Kang. She shielded him. That was when Kang remembered that bitter lesson and law that has governed him “What You Conquer, You Must Rule” realizing this was true even in this future(era).
Kang believed he had found a way out of stagnation’s trap. He dedicated himself to one simple rule which was “Never stop Conquering”. He believed the Universe was vast and adding the scope of time made it vaster. He had conquered the Ancient Past and what was even for him the far future. What was left was the space in between. He read pages upon pages about the Avengers in history books and watched them. He even took them on including Captain America, Iron Man, Thor and even Ant-Man. Kang fighting them expected more of a challenge from Earth’s mightiest hero’s even though he believed they showed some promise at the end when Thor used Mjolnir to absorb his radiation and throw it back at Kang thus escaping.

Defeat is a word Kang reserves for others and to Kang; to conquering a strong enemy, one must probe them, prod them creating an effect of feints within feints within feints. Making them fight each other and turning them against each other similar to a game where every player is his own pawn which makes all of Kang’s sacrifice along with every indignity is repaid over time when he conquers them one by one, time and time again.
Kang has even encountered incarnations of himself from divergent timelines who sought to defeat him but failed with some called Immortus, Iron Lad. Some formed a council of Kangs. In the end, if they are Avenger’s, X-Men, Incarnation of doom or even himself, they all fail because Kang has possesses one think in abundance more than them which is Time
Kang can travel through it, manipulate it and understand it better than beings across the entire universe. Kang believes Time’s greatest secret is that it is relentless, it never stops and never rests. With every tick of the clock, the entire universe marches in lockstep toward the future and that future has already been conquered long ago by Kang the conqueror.
Kang believes the universe is incalculably vast, perhaps infinite and one would have to be unimaginably ambitious or insane to believe they could conquer it all. His foes have called him both but Kang believes they don’t know about conquest because they are all confined. He’s ground gods, Kings and Empires into dust under the heels of his boot. He’s not doing so for riches, glory or power as he has achieved a hundred lifetimes worth of each already hence his foes tend to wonder who wields such power and authority in the Universe with some realizing its Kang The conqueror.
