Kang the Conqueror has terrified the Marvel Universe for decades.
Kang the Conqueror is always on the horizon as a threat in Marvel Comics, but the terrifying warlord of time actually has no powers.
Long before he became a central point in Marvel’s Loki and Ant-Man & the Wasp: Quantumania, Kang the Conqueror terrorized the Marvel Universe. The fearsome time traveler is one of the Avengers’ earliest foes and has long been considered a universal threat to all life.
Fans only briefly got to know the MCU version, but comics Kang is very well-known. He only lives to conquer, and he’s damn good at it. It doesn’t stop him from getting his butt handed to him by the Avengers throughout history, but he keeps coming back, and each time he very nearly wins.

With a seemingly endless array of weapons and the ability to travel through time, it’s a wonder Kang ever loses. However, even Kang has his breaking points.
If you’re new to the idea of Kang, he can be a little confusing. Here are all of Kang the Conqueror’s powers and weaknesses in Marvel Comics.
On his own, Kang isn’t much stronger or more durable than an average man and doesn’t actually have any natural powers. Much of Kang’s strength lies in his battle armor. The suit hails from the far future and imbues Kang with everything he needs in his travels as the conqueror.

Kang’s fantastical weaponry is also accessed via the armor, from guns to blades and everything in between. The armor will also keep him alive in a pinch, allowing him to survive in any environment and recover from serious wounds.
Perhaps the most notable aspect of the suit is its force field. The field has proven to be all but invincible, with Kang surviving some of the most devastating blasts that can be thrown at him.
