Kang just can't Kang up without turning on himself, can he?

[iamrman]

Kang's gonna Kang.

[numeronone]

"We had Kang, Kang, Kang, til Tony yook the H-Bomb awaaayyyyy..."

[cainofdreaming]

I'll have some Kang, Kang, Kang, Kang, Kang, Kodos and Kang, thank you.

[numeronone]

Get up offa that Kang, and dance til you feel better!

[mister_terrific]

We can Kang if we want to
We can leave your time behind
Because your Kangs don't dance and if they don't dance
Then they're no Kangs of mine!

[mister_terrific]

My wife did one better:

You've got Kangs to the left
Kangs to the right
And you're the only girl in town!

Everybody's Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang the Conqueror
Spider-Man, Ant-Man and Aimee Mann tooooooo~
Everybody's Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang the Conqueror
That police man, the pizza man, your mail man and even me and yooooooooou~

He was your date to the prom
And your best friend Tom
And your penpal from Wisconsin
He's your favorite movie star
He's Jamie Farr?
And your high school best friend's mom!
Tom's mom?
YES!

It's Kangs all the way down.
But what if I told you... there were MORE Kangs?

Things really do start getting ludicrous at this point. Kangs and Immortus and Ravonna, oh my.

[agharta75]

And there are also Ravonnas all the way down.

Can't forget the Kang-wannabes.

There's something... I'm not quite sure what the word is, but there is something about this storyline going a long way to state that, for all his talk... Kang's kind of a screw-up.
Like that Kang saying most Kangs are so stupid their own plans end up killing them. Or the Kangs getting together to kill the other Kangs for being so stupid, then backstabbing each other.
Which was, of course, actually Immortus's plan all along.
(A rare Immortus plan that actually works as intended!)


Also, even by the usual logic of scenes where one character disguises themselves under someone else's outfit, what's going on with Kang there?
The Iron Man armor just shredding like cheap fabric apropos of nothing. What is even...
(Was there just some weird breakdown in communications? The artist not wanting to bother with 'Iron Man' taking off his helmet to reveal he was Kang?)

[cainofdreaming]

Hey, Immortus' plans always work!

After a couple of retcons, that is.

[bravest_spinja]

A lot about Kang makes sense when you realize he's just Booster Gold without the Himbo vibes.

[knight_moves]

Well, a smart Kang would be pretty much undefeatable. Time travel is right up there with superspeed as a gamebreaking power.

[zylly]

Kang’s an egghead from the future playing at being a general in the barbarous past… and losing. Repeatedly.

[lbd_nytetrayn]

There's just something so amusing about Kang constantly playing 4D chess with himself.

And yet, if it were me writing, id be tempted to whittle it down to the point that there's only one Kang spanning all realities...

...or, at least, I would until I saw the news about MCU Kang and how that threw a spanner into the works.

OTOH, for as long as they intend to masquerade it as a fake 616, anyway.,

[scorntx]

Whittling it down to one Kang is exactly what this story's trying to do.
And it worked... for a while.

[super_fly]

It takes a lot to make a stew
A pinch of salt and conquest too
A scoop of Kangs to add the spice
A dash of Immortus to make it nice
And you've got...
Too Many Kangs!
Too Many Kangs!
Too Many Kangs!
