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.

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...

Extraordinary X-Men #1 Review

Extraordinary X-Men #1 A brand new era of the merry mutants are about to begin in the pages of the first issue of brand new monthly ongoing Extraordinary X-Men . Since it is a new X-Title lots of expectations and speculations were made before it was even released and now it’s here for us to find out how it turns out to be. The comics opens with Ororo Munroe aka Storm sitting at Charles Xavier ’s desk. Although I suppose you could call it her desk in her office now. Because, Wolverine is gone, Beast is off with the Inhumans tying to help them out with their recent crisis, Cyclops is off the team as well. Actually, Cyclops has done some terrible things in his run as the leader of the X-Men and now Scott Summers ' name is something that no one is willing to even mention, which more or less leaves Storm as the de facto leader of the mutant community. It seems that the Anti-Mutant aggression is at an all-time high all over the world and they are not just your regular a...

Black Panther (2016) #2 Review

Black Panther (2016) #2 Can Black Panther stop this Wakandan Civil War or will his hatred, pride and doubt will sink him in whole. Lets’ get on this issue and find out. The comic opens up to us with the Shield of the Nation where T'Challa is getting information on who might be behind on trying to start this war. Some of the evidence points to Killmonger but we find out that he is dead now. It was his patience for part he was trying to create the perfect tool to control the hearts of men. With that, Killmonger ’s creation is twisting the minds of men all over Wakanda and even at the Great Mound , where the massacre happened ( Black Panther (2016) #1 ). T'Challa says that he has tracked the witch to the frontier but he will go alone. But his step-mother Ramonda tells him that he won’t be going alone because he is king and who will take over if he somehow dies, the soldiers will go instead. T'Challa explains this is not a fight that is easily resolved with weap...

Extraordinary X-Men #2 Review

Extraordinary X-Men #2 Mutants from past, present and future will need to unite to help overcome one of the darkest moments in their history. All these and more in the pages of Extraordinary X-Men issue number two. As the comic opens X-Men Magik and Colossus on their way to recruit their old friend Nightcrawler but they don’t find the blue elf, they do find his tail however and a puddle of his blood. But seems like Kurt Wagner can always loose on his tail and find another new one. Well, that may not be fun but at the very least that is a condolence. We can only assume that he was taken down by the new incarnation of the Marauders whom we saw chasing him previously for some unknown reason ( Extraordinary X-Men #1 ). In Neepawa , Manitoba , Canada , Iceman and Storm meet up with Logan for the very first time. Needless to say that all parties involved are pretty confused right about now. Well then Logan tells them that he’s from the future, a very different and alternat...

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...

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...

Black Panther (2016) #1 Review

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...

Superior Spider-Man #2 Review

Superior Spider-Man #2 Welcome to my review of Superior Spider-Man , issue number two from  Marvel Comics   and this is of course that cover where we see Spider-Man is making out with Mary Jane Watson and there is a rumor that he's going to rape her. You know, what's everybody's been saying. Well, let's get into this. It opens up and we got your Spider-Man . He's actually being congratulated by Jay Jonah Jameson and we see Parker 's spirit still wandering there. He's like, all these years I get nothing and suddenly you take over my body and he likes you. He admits he was wrong. I find that bit funny and as the comment goes on we see that Pete is trying to get into MJ 's pants, except every attempt he makes doesn't work. So, he constructs to those little nano-bot type of spiders just a note to help him out and commands hi Mechanoid to replicate 800 more. Over the course of come to see he keeps going China to date MJ and different...

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 ...
