Royals #7 Review

inhumans royals comic
Royals #7
The Royal family of Inhumans finds themselves in more trouble than ever before in Royals monthly ongoing series, issue number 7. So, let's get right in. Once again as we get into the comic we are taken to five thousand years from now where we see the last Inhuman is observing an epic battle but before we can continue on with that, we actually transition over to modern day where we see another battle happening in an arena here.

Things are going a bit different. There's a lot of emotion to be tossed around specifically between one member of the Badoon named Dara Ko Eke and Captain Swain. Now, if you don't know them, they're actually a very popular race in Marvel and Swain and this is kind of in relation to some relationships and things that are going on now. While that's going on things aren't exactly progressing as well for Gorgan as he was captured by those lizard people.

Things are turning out pretty bad for him. For one, these dudes have a terrible plan to go kill the rest of The Inhumans and Medusa. However, they're not exactly going to kill them in the way you might think essentially. They're capturing them and then putting them in these crystal-like chambers you can say and taking their powers away for their own.

The Great Desert
Over with the rest of the family things aren't going any better really on essentially they want to see that obelisk that's outside that Medusa wanted to see and yeah they're standing right before it. Medusa is asking questions and they need to know more details about it even the thought of genocide gets brought up and how this is more or less that.

An Interesting Wrinkle
It's also really cool to kind of see them talk about it and talk about exactly what all these more scientific things are but there's another plan. Maximus is gonna get somewhat unhinged. Now these people here, they don't necessarily agree with everything that Medusa has done. typically the things in regards to Black Bolt but that doesn't matter right now.

Working for the Good
Maximus the Mad is quick to use his powers in collaboration with someone else and actually take Marvel-Boy and caused him massive damage. What do I mean is, he tosses him into that obelisk slash Skyscraper thing and Boris just gets electrocuted. We don't know if he's dead or alive as Maximus doesn't concern but Medusa does.

Like Gorgon's Stomp
Unfortunately, before we can find out the conclusion to that, we see that The Inhumans are of course still in the arena. There's a massive fight going on and then it's revealed that Crystal is caught. Why exactly? Well, she's caught because they take your powers and they give them to others to keep fighting in this arena and right now. Gorgon finds himself without his huff's. They've taken his powers. So, yeah. This was a pretty good comic. Honestly I think the series is progressively staying decent.

They Need Us Alive
It's dipped in quality just a little bit but that's nothing bad and that's typical with a lot of series. Overall I like it. I think the art by Kevin Libranda (Royals – Beyond Inhuman, Uncanny Avengers – Red Skull) is still great and Al Ewing (Captain America and the Mighty Avengers – Last Day, Captain America and the Mighty Avengers – Open For Business) provided a decent story here. I suggest people do read if you're interested in the Inhumans. Seven point five out of ten would be my rating to this issue.

Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man #2 Review

Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man #2 Peter Parker has come face-to-face with his sister but is there more to this story than meets the eye. Let's find out in issue number two. So, as the second issue opens up we catch up with Peter Parker who is of course in Chicago and here we see Peter is face to face with Ironheart who was joking about the fact that he is here to arrest her but he says, that she is the wrong person. He wasn't actually here to arrest Ironheart . It's more so that he's after the actual Infamous Iron Man , who is of course Doctor Doom but for now he'll just settle for getting her autograph. So, Ironheart isn't going to have none of his crap and she quickly just you know, bolts right into him. Takes him up into the sky, they both come crashing down and then there's a tiny little fight and then after that's all said and done we see, Peter Parker finally gets to talk to Tony Stark , or at least the AI consciousness th...

Black Panther (2016) #1 Here we are guys with the issue number one of Black Panther ongoing which is also a part of “ A Nation Under Our Feet ” storyline. We are still looking into Wakanda and see what’s changed in Secret Wars . The comic opens up as T'Challa recalls his past failures against his ancestors, being cast out from his own country and then to have his own people having questioned him about what he’s really trying to do as a King of that nation. Then we see the Great Mound where T'Challa tries to praise the Vibranium miners for their hard work but someone’s manipulating them. Filling them with hate and trying to start a Civil War . T'Challa may question himself but he still knows that he is the Black Panther and with that he can track anyone through the wind and rain. Because he hasn’t tracked just the body, he tracks the very soul of a person. But then the deceiver’s scent has gone stale sort and he stops his pursuit with a soldier telling him tha...

Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man #1 Review

Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man #1 The Spectacular Spider-Man is back in New York . That's right we're here with Peter Parker ; The Spectacular Spider-Man issue number one. So, as the comic opens up we are going to be caught up on the basics of who Peter Parker is and how he got his powers. Of course they're going to kind of establish the death of his parents when he was very young. At the moment where these spider bites him and so far catching us up to what he's been doing today and as we flip the page we actually see that this is Peter Parker once again recounting his origin to someone very familiar and he says the more or less the situation he's been in lately, his responsibility has shot up. He's got to do way more than he's ever had to do before. And all of this is happening while him and Johnny Storm are grabbing lunch together in the city. Unfortunately, it is time for Johnny to go. As he swings off he's talking about how t...

Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man #3 Review

Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man #3 The third issue of Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man is here and thus the comedy continued to flow or is this going to take a serious turn so far quite a few things have happened. In this comic, quite obviously we've seen Peter Parker 's sister show back up. We've seen a few other things such as Johnny Storm take a moral or you know, supporting role in this and he's really kind of getting fleshed out along with the rest of the characters. We saw Peter Parker takes on Iron Heart and this time in this issue we're going to see him go face to face with the one and only the Kingpin of crime; Wilson Fisk . Karnak of The Inhumans makes a brief appearance in the course of the story. Now of course this will not be the first time these characters are ever going to meet and it's definitely not going to be the last time and there's a lot of humor, that's tossed into this comics. You can definitel...

Thanos (2016) #1 Review

Thanos (2016) #1 If you have been following comics for any amount of time recently, I don’t think that it’s a surprise at all that we’ve seen an influx of movie characters starts to take the spotlights. A couple of years ago we had Thanos Rising , which is one series that really understands The Mad Titan . This week, Marvel launched the first issue of a brand-new series featuring Thanos , which is going to put the entire spotlight on the tyrant himself and take us in a brand-new direction. So, let’s just jump right in to the story. As the book gets going, the writer here Jeff Lemire ( Essex County , Extraordinary X-Men – X-Haven ), who should be a familiar name to a lot of you takes a little bit of time to catch up with what’s been happening. The last couple of time we seen Thanos , things weren’t exactly going as good as they should have been. During Civil War II , he was defeated and he was taken down again by Doctor Doom before that in Secret Wars . So, Thanos is ki...

Venom (2016) #1 Review

Venom (2016) #1 Recently a brand-new ongoing Venom series has launched and we are here today to discuss issue #1 of the series. This book is long awaited as this book once again changing the host of the alien Symbiote and what you’re going to notice here is that he is not a Guardian of the Galaxy any more or the so-called Space Knight or anything like that. They are trying to go back to basics and make the Venom Symbiote part of someone who is a scumbag because the Symbiote bonds with its host and it amplifies if they are evil. So at first glance, this new person who is destined to be the next host of the Symbiote, isn’t very likable at all and they are definitely trying to go for that feeling here. The hero is Lee Price , who is a disabled military veteran, which kind of reflects on the Flash Thompson story with Venom but not really considering throughout this entire comic while reading it. But this guy doesn’t feel like Flash Thompson . Instead he’s got a very muc...

The Clone Conspiracy #2 Review

The Clone Conspiracy #2 So, just when you think Peter Parker cannot handle any twist that you thrown at him at the end of The Clone Conspiracy #1 , found out that his first love Gwen Stacy is very well alive and she knew that he was the Amazing Spider-Man on ‘ The Night She Died ’ and as this comics starts, it’s going to be quite shocking for him but not in just the way you might imagine because the creator of the “ Clone Saga ”, the Jackal has been on a cloning spree and he’s cloned quite a lot of familiar faces. Not only are them the villains but it’s almost anybody that have died while Spider-Man was around. So, you can see how this could go bad. The book starts with the Scarlet Spider running or should I say, webbing his way out of a crazy mob of San Franciscans  that is infected by the Carrion Virus that made them all act like a pack of ravaging Zombies and it was on an alternate universe. Kaine was desperately asking for a Portal jump as he was out of webs an...

Extraordinary X-Men #3 Review

Extraordinary X-Men #3 The bonds of time in space and even other dimensions aren’t going to be enough to keep the mutants from re-uniting, all these and more in pages of Extraordinary X-Men number #3. Let’s hop in and see what happens next, shall we? The comic opens up in the mysterious X-Haven , only it’s not so mysterious anymore. Turns out, Storm and the rest of the teachers to avoid human violence against mutants decided to move the entire school inside Limbo and while the real estate might be to die for the neighbors and their little ornery mainly because their Demons are now attacking the school. Storm and Iceman do everything they can to turn the tide of the battle but this is a very losing proposition right now. Everyone else in X-Haven is either untrained or too sick to fight the Demon horde. From there we transit over to Logan who is having a meet-up with Jean Grey of Earth-TRN240 for the first time. Shockingly these two actually have a lot in common seeing ...
