monition ! This mail contains spoilers for Loki season 2

Summary

TheMCUhas been slowly building to an epic confrontation between the Avengers and the Council of Kangs , and theLokiseason 2 finale may have finally explained how the nefarious group come together . It initially seemed as though a single Kang variant - Kang the Conqueror - would be the central villain of the MCU ’s Multiverse Saga , but his apparent end at the end ofAnt - Man and the Wasp : Quantumaniaseems to imply that wo n’t be the suit . Instead , Quantumania ’s post - credits scenery introduces the Council of Kangs , a massive collection of Kang variant headed by Rama - Tut , Scarlet Centurion , and Immortus .

However , it ’s hitherto unnamed how these three Kangs came in contact with each other and why they ’re seemingly willing to work together despite the Kangs ' penchant for infighting and war . While the MCU will likely oblige that accurate answer close to the dresser for a while longer , theend of theLokiseason 2 finaleteases what may be the radical ’s catalyst for formation . The TVA ’s new mission is to stop dress innocent life and alternatively only target unsafe Kang chance variable , but this attempt at pity and curated intervention may unwittingly get the Avengers ' next crowing terror to form .

The TVA May Accidentally Enable The Council Of Kangs

Loki Season 2

The TVA does n’t unremarkably kill people but instead " prunes " them , an initially mystifying process explored inLokiseason 1 . Though victim may seem to disintegrate , they ’re transported to the very ending of time to a mish - mash of pruned people and thing call The Void . If the TVA is rationalise problematic Kangs , it seems potential - if not actively likely - that this will ensue in several powerful Kangs meeting in the Void and make the Council of Kangs . Moreover , there ’s actually precedence for pruning leading to powerful squad - ups , so the possibility is n’t as off-the-wall as it may first seem .

Why The Council Of Kangs Being In The Void Makes Sense

Loki season 1 already arrange a precedent for strain of a pruned character finding each other in The Void and team up up . Exactly that happened with Loki variants , several of which band together in a tentative alliance . As such , there ’s small reason to think the same could n’t happen with Kangs . All Kangs in The Void would n’t have been trim in the first place if they did n’t have finish of subjection , and so many like - minded individuals in the same space may put aside some of their differences to act towards a common destination .

The interrogative , then , is one of timing . The Council has already been shown in the MCU , but the TVA did n’t start look to actively trim Kangs until theLokiseason 2 finale . However , the nature of the TVA and its position outside of time intend this is n’t an issue . The timeline monitor by the TVA stretches from the beginning of time to the end of it , andLokiseason 2 established that causation paradoxes are possible . There ’s no reason the core of the TVA ’s action could n’t already be seen in the MCU , even though the organization has n’t been act the room it has forever .

Last , its unclear exactly where the arena - like structure seen domiciliate the Council of Kangs inQuantumaniais place , but somewhere like The Void make some degree of sense . Despite their immense baron , the mathematical group would presumably want a location nestle away from most major scourge in the Marvel Universe . While not altogether protected like He Who stay ' Citadel at the End of Time , the constant influx of pruned affair may make it difficult forLoki ’s TVA and other groups to keep tablet on what exactly is come about there .
