>well, whose children should we experiment on?
Ah, there's the Inhumans I know and love. It's been so long.

>it was a maximus story all along
That's pretty cool.

>>92461610
That was fucking great! Thanks

>>92461471
Jeez, they really aged in 16 years.

>>92462040
I like Jonboy's style but it doesn't fit the Inhumans.

>Maximus is conscious of the timeline of his entire life both past and future and able to commune between himself at different points in time

The man is actually playing 4d chess

>>92462002
They did that intentially...to make a "what a Twist!"

>>92461175
Nice, this is one of my fetishes
>>92461258
What a magnificent bastard

Now we're getting somewhere. This is so much better than the first 2 issues. Kinda reminds me of Agent of Asgard and the more out there issues of Ultimates.

>>92464524
Speaking of Ultimates, this week's issue was complete garbage.

>>92464615
good ol' events derailing everything

>>92464615
It was really underwhelming. From the solicits I was expecting half secret empire and half Galactus, but in the end we got like 2 pages of mildly interesting stuff.

>>92464615
We got to see Galactus in maximum over-chill mode, but otherwise, yeah. Glad the Secret Empire tie-in is only one issue.

>>92462419
Jonboy wasn't the artist.

where the h*ck is Ultimates and USAvengers

>>92465304
inhymans are a priority, because they must be shilled no matter what

literally, the worst franchise ever, but it's always the first to be storytimed. meanwhile, I don't remember the last time we had Black Panther, nor Dr Strange

>>92462077
he's totally Reed's real dad, isn't him?

>>92465850
But Reed's real dad is Kang's ancestor

>>92460959
This single page is more Inhumans than literally anything that's come out in the post-Infinity era

>>92461156
Same issues when posting earlier

>>92465304
In the Win-O thread.

>>92460622

have y'all seen this?
>https://www.bleedingcool.com/2017/05/12/jonboy-meyers-replaced-thony-silas-royals-4/

walking off three major assignments in a short time (Spawn, Teen Titans, Royals)... what an ass

>>92469315
What's the problem with Jonboy?

>>92461610
fuck yeah

>>92469315

the Spawn one makes sense.
but as for the rest...hes not that great of an artist to be pulling this shit.

>>92469906
he walked off Teen Titans because he didn't want to do Lazarus Contract

no flipping clue why he left Royals though

>>92469315
4 actually
He was the original artist for X-men gold but walked after doing the designs

Oh. You don't say.

>>92471203
Thanks anon

>>92471239
I still don't understand why Hickman tried to make this seem like a mystery. He had Maximus' clothes, he had mind control, and Maximus was the only member of the cabal whose destination was unknown. At least Ewing had the decency of not stretching the twist for more than a couple weeks, and even then it was slightly more difficult to call.

>>92470688
X-men Gold is crap. I don't blame him.

Except for Rachel's costume. He can go to hell for that

>>92471318
Hickman had some semblance of plan, but things started falling the fuck apart after Infinity and by the time Secret Wars rolled around, he was basically flying by the seat of his pants

>>92471250
No problem

>>92471397
>>92471318

To be fair, it wasn't much of a mystery, but it did get to a point that it seemed like some real confrontation where he would've revealed himself just wasn't going to fit into the story at all, so the reveal was done in such a small way.

>>92469957

do we actually know that hes walked off Royals, or is it just him not being able to keep schedule and Marvel replacing?

>>92471938
Nope it was just reported that he wasn't doing chapter 4. He was solicited for 5.

>>92471938
we don't know the circumstances other than #4 getting re-solicited without him

Jon is definitely a slow drawer but from the looks of things he just looses interest in the work and leaves by choice.

Crystal is not for bullying

>>92473777
The best part is how the quote stretches through the stages of his life. It's not merely a continuity reference, it takes something from old continuity and makes it significant for the story. It's like the verbal version of what Morrison did with characters like Dr Hurt.

>>92462542
Why doesnt BB kill Maximus?

>>92461471
Didn't BB once rip off Maximus' arms with his voice?

>>92474779
Black Bolt loves him and blames himself for Max going mad. Which we now know was just Max's almonds getting activated by his voice. BB is more protective of Max than he is of Ahura or Medusa.

>>92474966
disintegrated his hands, and now he has gloves that he never takes off. Probably mechanical hands but I bet Ewing won't skip the chance to make it something crazy.

>>92461610
holy shit I got shivers

>>92462542
Some of those are mind control and the other she didn't know BB was a Skrull.

The Johnny stuff I agree.

And even after that Black Bolt had the chance to move on but he didn't.

He choose the cuck life.

>>92472201
>re-solicited
More like changing one of the solicitation details only.

>>92471228
then walk off his own book like Joe Mad.

If Jon is really gone I hope someone other than Silas takes over. Something off about how he draws their current selves something with face throws me. Which is weird since old Maximus looks great in this chapter.

>>92476672
hopefully if Jon is permanently off, Silas uses his own style instead of aping Jon

>>92476346
What about working for other visual media than comics?

>>92461610
wtf I love Maximus now.

holy shit, to think out of the greatest shit show would come...this. Fucking perfect.

>>92461443
>He kept Black Bolt's clothes for the next 5000 years.

>>92476762
I am sure he does these on the side already.

>>92477001
they're good clothes

>Maximus's 5,000 year plan

>>92461443
I wonder if he got new powers in his old age. Dude is floating.

>>92460959
Nice use of continuity. Azur and Mander are Triton's parents, and after seeing what the Terrigen Mists did to their son, they refused to expose his brother Karnak. It makes sense that they wouldn't be too happy about experementing on one's children.

>>92473777
>Uncle Black Bolt
I thought they were cousins?

>>92477384
probably just finally got around to mastering chi or something
you'd think basically everyone with a life span in the hundreds would put that on their to-do list

>>92477553
They are, everybody else says cousin but Crystal called Max and BB uncle.

>>92461416
>>92461398
I wonder if Christopher Priest's upcoming Inhumans mini "Once and Future Kings" will contradict any of this.

>>92477724
Unless he changes what happened in origin in entirely it shouldn't. Max only talks to himself and the events proceeded as they always have. It's almost contradiction proof. Unless Chris makes a point to directly contradict a plot point in this chapter. His book happens right after BB gets out and during the Unspoken stuff which with exception of this scene >>92473777
happened a bit before the rest of the stuff referenced.

>>92462077
Well you need to leave one as a control
