 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: AfD heading for a NC (two D, two M, and two K); however, the willingness of Keeps ro merge, means a merge could also be considered; try a relist.

 * Delete. Not notable, and more of a plot device than a character. No reliable secondary sources means nothing to merge. Considered a redirect to Kang the Conqueror, but not mentioned there. --Killer Moff- ill advisedly sticking his nose in since 2011 (talk) 14:19, 5 November 2019 (UTC)

 * Disambiguate. I would tend to think that someone who types "Growing man" into the search bar in Wikipedia is looking for Development of the human body, Developmental psychology or Maturity (psychological).  They're also quite likely to be a child, who might be confused to find an article about a comic book character.  The current content, if kept, should be moved to Growing Man (comics) (and if merged it should still be moved there in order to retain attribution).  I don't really care whether the article about the comic book character is kept, merged or deleted.—S Marshall T/C 10:32, 7 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - The "character" is extremely minor, and there seem to be no reliable, secondary sources discussing it. At the very least, I was unable to find any, and none of the "Keep" or "Merge" votes above provided any.  Thus, merging non-notable, only primary sourced information to other articles does not solve anything, it just conflates the target article/list with even more non-notable cruft.  There are also the concerns that S Marshall brought up regarding the article's name space, so regardless of the results of this AFD, that is definitely an issue that should be addressed.
