History
One of the criminal groups that served Fu Manchu.[1][4] Thugees and other groups were gathered in the Order of the Golden Dawn.[4]
Notes
- In Marvel comics, there is a distinction between Thugees and Phansigars, however, in real life, Phansigar is another name for Thugees, the group is known to be devoted to the goddess Kali, being therefore part of the Cult of Kali.[5] However, in Marvel Atlas Vol 1, it is said that Thugees are part of the Cult of Kali and the Si-Fan and that in turn,[2] and that the Cult of Kali itself is part of the Si-Fan.[6]
- Thor & Hercules: Encyclopaedia Mythologica #1 describes Phansigars as another name for Thugees and members of the Cult of Kali.[3]
- In Sax Rohmer's novels, Thugees and Phansigars are synonymous and they serve Fu Manchu.
