WARNING : Spoilers for The Avengers # 24I debate myself a fan of theAvengers , but they just made an mortifying mistake that ’s caused me to doubt whether they ’re as great as I thought they were . While Marvel ’s heroes unremarkably have a clear idea of the threat they ’re up against , they ’ve now made the misunderstanding of trusting a hefty baddie , which has resulted in innocent deaths they could have well prevent .
In a preview forThe Avengers#24 by Jed MacKay and Farid Karami , the Avengers are forced to watch in horror asKang the Conquerorunleashes a fleet of ship upon the Grandmaster ’s Speculatorium . Captain Marvel asks if he ’d really get thousands exit to " prove a point " , and Kang simply replies,“Without a second thought . Without even a first . "
Kang ’s actions are deplorable , but what stand out to me about this moment is how the heroes seem genuinely stun by his zeal to kill . The Avengers should know what they ’re administer with by now , yet their mislaid trustingness in Kang has put lives on the line .
I Can’t Believe The Avengers Are Shocked by Kang the Conqueror’s Actions
Did The Avengers Seriously Think Kang Wouldn’t Kill Innocent People?
Kang has really been forge with the Avengersthroughout MacKay ’s run , forming a tentative confederation with them to inform them of events to number in their future tense that only he could foresee . That is , untilThe Avengers#10 , in which Kang was assault byfellow clip traveler Myraddinand decided that their allegiance had failed . He has now become an opponent to the Avengers once more , and they had hoped to outwit him by stealing one of his possessions from the Grandmaster . Clearly , Kang has been one footstep in advance of the heroes all along , and I ’m disappointed by how surprised they are about it .
Captain Marvel and her Avengers teammates have made a vast error in underestimating Kang the Conqueror , and that mistake will be countless lives .
While the Avengers did reluctantly admit Kang ’s help originally , I ca n’t wrap my head around why they ’re so shocked by his aggregated murder . They never should have trust him to begin with , despite his predictions help them , because of his extended history as a pestilent baddie who ’s never hesitated to take lives before . They should have control this betrayal add up from mile away , frankly . Captain Marvel and her Avengers teammateshave made a huge mistake in underestimating Kang the Conqueror , and that mistake will cost countless lives , when they should have known better than to doubt how far he ’s uncoerced to go .

The Avengers Just Showed How Incompetent They Can Be
The Avengers ' shock about Kang the Conqueror ’s willingness to let innocents perish advise that they do n’t sympathize what they ’re up against . In Kurt Busiek and Alan Davis’The Kang Dynasty , the nominal villain conquered the entire major planet , which result in an immeasurable number of deaths . Kang even created travail camps and punished anyone who fly them with vicious deaths , prove just how grievous he can be when given king . Having live at first hand the barbarity that Kang could commit , the Avengers should have predicted that crossing him could lead to him creating more casualties .
The end of a founding Avenger has been ride in Marvel ’s Ultimate Universe , but we ’re among the fans desperately hoping it is n’t on-key .
Unfortunately , the reality is that the Avengers must have thought they really had the upper hand over Kang . If they ’d reached whatever orphic possession he was after first and procured it successfully , then they might have been able to get around the fatal consequences of his arrival by hold leverage . no matter , I think it ’s foolish for the Avengers to not plan for an outcome like this if Kang is involved . The sub ' failure to calculate for Kang having no attentiveness for other lives - something that could have been anticipated - conduce me to query whether they should be recognise as " hero sandwich " at all .
The Avengers Should Be Smarter Than This, And I’m Disappointed
Earth’s Mightiest Heroes Aren’t As Perceptive As They Should Be
The Avengers have long been recognized as one of Marvel ’s top super - squad , hence their soubriquet as " Earth ’s Mightiest Heroes " . With that being said , their oversight of Kang is no small trip , and it picture how inept they can be in spite of their report . The Avengers have a duty to protect masses , and that charge has fallen categoric thanks to their own incompetency . The team house some ofMarvel ’s smartest mindsand strong champion , yet they have all let Kang get away with execution once again . As much as I love theAvengers , it ’s time to let in that they ’re mark , not heroes .
