25 amazing fan art images from the Marvel Cinematic Universe

6. Killmonger by Awlanger

Something that Marvel does really well is it gives us villains we love to hate (and well, in the case of Michael B. Jordan’s Killmonger, kinda love). Plus Killmonger, a bit like Thanos, is a villain whose end game was one we could understand if it weren’t for them wanting to kill our heroes in the process.

Erik wanted to protect the family he didn’t have. He wanted to take what he thought his father wanted him to have. And that meant challenging T’Challa for the crown. While he might have made some good points, he still, you know, murdered people.

Which is part of the problem with his character. We want to like him and we want to see the good in him but he also definitely killed a lot of people and we can’t just excuse that.

All that being said, he still is one of the most interesting characters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and this artist captures the essence of Killmonger and the beauty that truly is Michael B. Jordan.

There is no denying that part of the appeal of Killmonger is how beautiful Michael is so to see something like this, that captures the nature we’ve come to fear from Erik mixed with Michael’s looks? That’s pretty incredible. It also helps that this artwork is flawless.
