![]() In a comics storyline, Kang the Conquerer travels to the early 20th century, takes on the name Victor Timely, and founds the city of Timely, Wisconsin. Inventor and industrialist Victory Timely is one of Kang’s many aliases. That’s most likely the version Loki has found. We know a version of Kang resides in Wisconsin in 1901 in the comics and goes by the name Victor Timely. Presumably, Loki and Mobius are now on the hunt for Kang in order to reverse the effects of what Sylvie did or at least stop him from conquering the entire multiverse. Sylvie kills him anyway, and Loki finds himself in a version of reality where Kang the Conquerer has taken over the TVA. He Who Remains warns that if Loki and Slyvie kill him they will simply unleash many other scarier variants of him, like Kang the Conquerer. Yes, destroying branching timelines kills trillions of people, but it’s worth it to keep those in the one true timeline alive. He Who Remains managed to defeat the other variants and created the one true timeline to maintain order and prevent future battles among the timelines. But some particularly nasty versions of him wanted to conquer all the timelines. He Who Remains explains that the various versions of himself learned to traverse the multiverse, met, and at first shared knowledge in peace. How does the Quantumania end-credits scene set up Season 2 of Loki? Loki reassures Mobius that this is the right guy. Mobius tells Loki that Kang doesn’t look as menacing as Loki made him out to be. Mobius is an employee of something called the Time Variance Authority (TVA), but more on that later. In the audience, we see two characters from the show Loki: Loki himself and a man names Mobius (Owen Wilson). The scene at the very end of the credits shows Kang or a Kang variant (again, played by Majors) giving a presentation in an early 1900s show about the fabric of space-time. What happens in the second Quantumania end-credits scene? He rules as a pharaoh and renames himself Rama-Tut. For complicated reasons, Nathaniel decides to travel back to Ancient Egypt and take over the kingdom using advanced technology. But eventually he embraces his future as a supervillain. He briefly tries to resist that path and becomes a superhero named Iron Lad. In one timeline, a young man named Nathaniel Richards discovers that he’s destined to become Kang the Conquerer. ![]() Presumably the pharaoh version of Kang is Rama-Tut from the Marvel Comics. What happens in the first Quantumania end-credits scene? Life returns to normal, though Ant-Man secretly wrestles with whether he has doomed their timeline by not setting Kang free. Ant-Man and The Wasp (Evangeline Lilly) manage to send Kang even deeper into the Quantum Realm and escape to the surface world themselves. He vaguely alludes to the other Kang variants doing something bad. In the final fight, Kang says that he knows how the multiverse ends and if he does not reach the surface world, something terrible will happen. Kang spends the entire movie trying to get out, and Ant-Man (Paul Rudd) and his family try to keep Kang trapped. We learn in Quantumania that Kang’s other variants feared him and banished him to the Quantum Realm (essentially the realm where subatomic beings live).

Kang is a powerful character from the comics who hails from the 30th century and can hop in and out of different timelines. We meet another multiversal traveler in Quantumania: Kang the Conquerer (Majors).
