American Comics: I'm Really a Mage

Reborn into a new life, Wang Mang secretly swears: This time, I'm definitely going to become a mage!

And so, the Marvel Universe welcomes a Wang Mang the Great Mage whose style is a complete departure from the norm...

The Ancient One: Young man, what is the true essence of being a mage?

Wang Mang: Learn a portal spell, conjure a weapon with magic, then whack the hell out of them!

Years later, on the battlefield of Wakanda, Thanos, the Child of Destiny, raises his gauntlet and shouts, "I am destiny!"

A meteor falls from the sky, hurtling toward the Avengers army.

At the critical moment, it swerves in midair and heads back the way it came.

Amid the crowd, Wang Mang grins, holding a spiked club in one hand and a Gatling gun in the other. "Surprised, you purple raisin? I'm actually a mage!"
