King Killmonger

King Killmonger is a villainous variant of Erik Killmonger who rules as a king in the Multiverse, operating among a deadly ensemble of alternate-reality threats including Dark Phoenix and Black Skull in Jason Aaron's Avengers Forever saga.

Bursting onto the scene in 2022's Avengers Forever #2, King Killmonger is a Modern Age Marvel creation from the visionary team of Jason Aaron and Jim Towe — a character whose very name crackles with menace and ambition. In a relatively brief catalog footprint of ten appearances across Avengers, Avengers Forever, and Avengers Assemble Alpha, he moves in genuinely dangerous company, sharing pages with the likes of Dark Phoenix, Victor Von Doom, Black Skull, and Logan. That's a murderers' row of Marvel heavyweights, and the fact that King Killmonger holds his own among them tells you everything about the kind of threat he represents — a figure worth tracking down for any fan who loves their comics dark, bold, and uncompromising.
