Marvel to replace Kang with Myrddin in 2025 in the Avengers and across the Marvel Universe it seems (Spoilers)
Article Summary
- Myrddin is set to replace Kang in the Marvel Universe storylines by 2025, promising an exciting twist.
- The Tribulation Events return in 2025, with Myrddin taking a central role alongside the Avengers.

- Upcoming Avengers issues tease cosmic capers and epic confrontations involving Myrddin and Kang.
Kang The Conqueror is one of Marvel's oldest villains. And about now, he would have been coming into the movies on his own. But as we all know, that's not going to happen anymore. But what about the Marvel Comics line of titles that would have had Kang up front and centre along with his appearances in the movies? Well, it seems that there may be a little switching going on.
Back in 2023, Jed MacKay introduced the idea of the Tribulation Events in the Avengers comics, trials that the Avengers would have to go through to save reality in its many forms, while Kang was searching for The Missing Moment, information that had been held from him about his timeline and something somehow essential to him.
Kang worked with the Avengers for their mutual benefit towards stopping the Tribulation events and revealing the great historical prize of the Missing Moment. But then Myrddin of the Twilight Court, also looking for the Missing Moment, and snatching Kang's memories away.
Then the Avengers got involved with the Fall Of X, then Blood Hunt and now One World Under Doom, and so have been a bit busy. But 2025 promises a return to the Tribulation events and Bleeding Cool understands along the way, that includes Myrddin taking over the role of Kang, sitting in his chair as it were.
He may have only made four appearances to date, in the Timeless of late 2022, and in three issues of Avengers in 2023, but in 2025 it looks like he will be coming back big, for New Year's Day. And putting Kang in his place. Both appear on the cover and solicit in March 2025, but Bleeding Cool understands that the fix will be in earlier than that…
