I refuse to believe

I refuse to believe Kang has fought and massacred various versions of the Avengers, destroyed entire timelines, but he gets 'defeated' by a bunch of ants in his homefield. The ending did not land for me at all

Well Meta humans didn't really become known till Lex Luther went looking for them.Like the mutants how many are around we don't know about.Kang may know all the Avengers that are around just Like Professor X knows all the mutants.

In "Loki" he says that the reason he always wins is because he's seen the future and he knows what is going to happen before it happens. When he sees the ants, it looked to me like he was surprised - like that was something new that he hadn't seen coming. I don't know if that's what the screenwriters meant, but that's how I interpreted it.

He's been banished to the Quantum Realm, which exists outside of the timeline, so he has no idea what's coming next down there. That's why he wants to get out.

That wasn't THIS Kang in "Loki." That was He Who Remains, a Kang variant who'd managed to wipe out all the other variants.

Sylvie killed him, which "unleashed" all the variant timelines with their variant Kangs, including the one in this film.

Or maybe this Kang survived the variant war and the Snap while banished to the quantum realm.

Either way, he's not the same guy. That's why I was so surprised to see Majors at the end of "Loki," because he'd only JUST been announced as Kang in "Quantumania" which hadn't even started shooting yet.
