Mystery Solved: Marvel Reveals Location and Power of Second Bangle in “Ms. Marvel”
Introduction
After 18 months of anticipation, Marvel has finally unveiled the secrets surrounding the second bangle in the hit Disney Plus show "Ms. Marvel." The whereabouts and significance of this accessory have been a major mystery in the MCU's Phase Four, leaving fans speculating for answers. But fear not, because "The Marvels" has provided all the details we've been waiting for.
The Search for the Second Bangle
In "Ms. Marvel," we witnessed Kamala Khan's transformation into a superhero after inheriting her grandmother's bangle. This powerful artifact kickstarts Kamala's mutant abilities and sets her on a thrilling journey. Throughout the show's six episodes, we discovered that the Clandestines, a race of djinn-like beings, were after the bangle to open a door in reality and return home, potentially destroying the Earth in the process. However, the existence and location of a second bangle remained a mystery, until now.
The Kree Connection
Clues scattered throughout "Ms. Marvel" hinted at where the second bangle might be. A crucial flashback revealed that Kamala's bangle was found on the arm of a Kree in a Ten Rings temple. This led to theories that characters from other MCU projects, such as Shang-Chi, Eternals, or Moon Knight, might possess the second bangle. But it turns out the Kree connection was the key to unraveling this mystery.
An Evil Kree Radical
In "The Marvels," we learn that the villainous Kree radical, Dar-Benn, has obtained the second bangle. She tracked it down to a remote and desolate planet called MB-418. Kamala is surprised to discover that the bangle ended up in space, as she had never considered that possibility. It's a shame she and Carol Danvers, aka Captain Marvel, didn't become friends sooner, as Carol possesses valuable knowledge about the bangles.
The Power of the Quantum Bands
Contrary to what we believed, the bangles are actually called Quantum Bands, ancient Kree artifacts that use immense amounts of energy to open dimensional gateways known as Jump-Points. These Jump-Points are a network of wormholes that the Kree use for interstellar travel. Dar-Benn, seeking revenge after the fall of the Kree empire, uses the second bangle to drain the atmosphere from planets and funnel it through the Jump-Points to revitalize her homeworld, Hala.
Kamala Takes Control
After Dar-Benn's demise, Kamala is entrusted with both Quantum Bands. It remains unclear how she can withstand the power of both bangles when the Kree villain couldn't. It's speculated that Kamala's mutant genes or her longer bond with the first bangle may be the reasons behind her success. Nevertheless, she now possesses two of the most powerful objects in the MCU. This sets the stage for potential challenges as she tries to return to a normal life in a second season of "Ms. Marvel" or for exciting adventures alongside her Young Avengers teammates.
