"Aftertaste."


Black Bolt is ruling from the Marvel Select Mephisto's throne today: it's slightly too ornate, and evil, for him; but I figure the Kree aren't used to having a ruler that would fit in a chair anyway. This plotline is only marginally based on what may or may not be the Inhumans' current continuity in the comics; with some exceptions: Lockjaw is currently dead (BOO!) along with Maximus; I don't know if any bodies were seen, but Maximus probably used Lockjaw to get out of whatever. Pool has mentioned the Supreme Intelligence a couple of times, but I'm not sure it's still out there; and Ronan is currently supposed to be dead as well. Marvel may have finally given up on trying to flog the Inhumans into popularity...

We'll get more into why the Inhumans don't like Kurt next time, but that too is based on actual comics! That I wish I could fit in the scanner, since I have a reprint.

The Inhumans have beef with Kurt? Why? He's such a lovable and affable guy....Damn.
Yeah I think with the arrival of that horrible "Death of the Inhumans" min-series, it's safe to say the whole trying to replace the X-Men with the Inhumans project is dead and done. And good too. By resorting to that stupidly insane idea, and the lame ass tv show, they've effectively ruined any goodwill fans had towards the Inhumans. They'll need to desperately be built back up, probably having to recruit a Waid, Hickman, Ewing, or whatever the current hot Marvel creator darling is of the day, to rehabilitate the Inhumans at this point.

Oh heck, the Inhumans are a bunch of stuck-up snobs at the best of times. Not that þhe Shi'ar and Gladiator are any better!

Cool throne though.
