The Phalanx are an alien race, who were thought to be an offshoot of the Technarchy, bent on conquering worlds. It is a techno-organic race which had been captured by the Kree Empire, along with other hive species, to weaponize them and use them against rival empires. They were deemed a failure by the Black Judges due to their advanced adaptivity. The Phalanx has assimilated the technology of 100,000 worlds and slaughtered 200,000 races. The Phalanx have existed for 100,000 life cycles and have the collective knowledge of previous generations. When the Phalanx conquer a world, they infect the population and feed off the world until all sources of nutrition and power are gone. Their ultimate goal is to consume the whole universe.
