The DEATH of the Inhumans!

[@AGuyWithTheFace]

Lockjaw and Beta Ray Bill's relationship is actually not a retcon, in the Pet Avengers series they teamed up and fought Thanos with other animal friends. I swear on my life I'm telling the truth lol

[@ryanhensley4836]

And nobody would know since I'm pretty sure the writer didn't even read it

[@sandy34740]

I felt really bad for those actors in the inhumans show. They thought getting in on a marvel property would open a lot of doors for them, but they were just part of the cynical attempt to replace the mutants. That being said, War of Kings is a really great event.

[@captainvimes6079]

sandy34740 I thought the way they showed Karnak’s “not a power” was great, but yeah without the X-men a lot of marvel tv shows have their work cut out for them, simply by dint of how the X-men are everywhere in the comics. Makes me wonder when wolverine has any time to sleep

[@Vamroc]

Yeah, I know they expected the show to be the stepping stone to a possible movie down the line and within the first three episodes The Inhumans got disrespected more than a CW series with Maximus being just THE WORST

[@PabloMartinezDutra]

Black Bolt's actor will reprise his rol in Multiverse of Madness, as part of the Illuminati, so at least he'll have some kind of redemption haha

[@anthonyhudak9363]

I love the story about Cates' pitch for this book where he said he was in the room with various writers and editors and said he wanted this to be like and quote "John Wick in space". The room was silent for 10 seconds or so before one of them shouted out "NO! YOU CAN'T KILL LOCKJAW!"

[@Grievousish]

The one thing i've gathered from the Inhumans is that black bolt is kinda cool and lockjaw is fun. That's pretty much it.

[@fun2building]

Karnak is really cool too

[@phrozenliquidz]

Brother I feel the exact same way, and imperfectly fine with that being my understanding of the inhumans. Watch the comics explained X-men extinction event has some more black bolt stuff pretty cool.

[@Vamroc]

Bro, you need to watch the Marvel Fantastic Four show from the early nineties they do the Crystal & Johnny Storm arc from the comics and it's LEGIT funny

[@Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

*Karnak:* "That must've been so terrible coming home and finding all of your people dead and slaughtered by a race you have no control over." *Storm bursts through the door:* "Yeah, Karnak. It must've hurt to see most of your species die to something that was easily preventable. But the people responsible for the killing were too stubborn to stop to push their ideals. That's rough, buddy." *Muppet Alien from Dark Phoenix Saga bursts through the door:* "Yeah, X-Man. Coming home to find out everything you know and love died because of another race's negligence. Truly tragic." *Phoenix Force bursts through the door:* "SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" *Deadpool bursts through the door:* "And me, too." *Vox:* "HOW THE HELL ARE THESE PEOPLE GETTING IN HERE?!"

[@comicbookfan2297]

Just Some Guy with a Mustache Spider-Man webs into the room "Yeah everybody hush. I have the most tragic story. We all know it. I let my uncle die because I was too immature to stop someone from robbing my former boss. I also lost Gwen Stacey my first girlfriend. Me and my wife lost our child and our marriage due to a stupid devil dude. I lost my aunt countless times and oh yeah. I've been freaking cloned for I don't know how many times.

Despite you guys unwilling to do another Inhumans book for a while, would you seriously consider Black Bolt by Saladin Ahmed? That was one of my favorite comics back in 2017

that was a great book,hope we can see it on back issues someday

[@Bizarrejoe]

Beta Ray Bill can destroy planets easily. Seriously, do Stormbreaker The Saga of Beta Ray Bill. its amazing

I’m not crazy about Inhumans, but do enjoy a good number of their stories. Paul Jenkins & Jae Lee’s work was great. Can’t wait to read my copy of this!

[@WhiteRaven696]

As an Inhumans fan (don't ask me why, I actually don't know. It's mostly that I'm a fan of Medusa, Ms. Marvel, Quake and Moon Girl, and they're like the faces of the Inhumans right now), I actually found this book really mean-spirited and also not very coherent. There were tons of plotholes and loose ends that weren't actually resolved, the stakes were never high enough (how can you have an event where Inhumans are targeted and NOT have Kamala Khan viciously fighting for her life?), the pacing was extremely fast and instead of having all of New Arctilan's lunar colony involved and giving everyone glorious battle deaths... They gave them whimpering deaths with most deaths not even being on screen. I actually do like more individual mutants than I do Inhumans, but I consider myself more of an Inhumans fan than an X-Fan. And while I'm happy for them that they got the X-Men back and the MCU's getting them back, too, the Inhumans have fans now, despite Marvel's horrible attempts to market them and later bury them. We could've had both, we just never had writers who cared enough to try.

[@Volvagia1927]

Big part of the problem is this: All Mutants: Race Issues or Homosexuality Issues metaphor, depending on THE STORY. Willing Inhumans: Transgender Issues metaphor. Unwilling Inhumans: Asexuality Issues metaphor. Not only are those latter two more niche, it means a story has two choices if they've jammed Willing and Unwilling Inhumans together: 1. Engage with the social issues metaphors and struggle to balance two different metaphors that they might not even have any idea HOW TO engage with. 2. Reject the social issues metaphors entirely. Most current Inhumans writers, as far as I'm aware, took the latter option.

[@derefhrsjk]

@@Volvagia1927 or it could just be a cool scifi story which inhuman stories were before marvel lost the rites to the xmen

This is probably one of the most rational response I have seen in regards to the Inhumans. Thank you.

[@wdcain1]

I thought Lineage had potential as a neat take on the "evil vizier" since he's literally a New York mobster. Plus he has tons of knowledge since his power gave him access to all the genetic memories of his ancestors which included some big time Inhuman scientists, politicians, and generals. But then Charles Soule had him stage a revolt not 10 issues after his appearance so he got booted out of the city where he died in IvX. What a waste.

[@Radvengence]

Believe it or not, I personally know an Inhumans fan; although I think his preferred stuff is from before Marvel trying to make them into X-men surrogates. Also hilariously enough, Agents of Shield did the Inhumans far better than anything else was at the time.

[@blueseanewt2138]

You know I rewatched this in an Autoplay recently and it hit about the same as always, death of stories just don't interest me much but sal mentioned Inhuman by Charles Soule being the opposite so I tried it. I am like 14 issues deep and I love it, the panel work is amazing, I am starting to love the characters, especially Medusa, and the whole experience feels freash. Top tier recommendion from the Inhuman hater and chief.

[@eqs1782]
