COMICS: 'Beast' Becomes The Newest Member Of THE UNCANNY INHUMANS
Marvel may have all-but blacklisted the X-Men, but they're still picking and choosing certain mutant characters to use for their batch of upcoming "All-New, All-Different" titles. Click on to see how Hank McCoy looks alongside the rest of the Uncanny Inhumans...
We already knew that Fantastic Four member Johnny Storm/the Human Torch had joined the Inhumans, and now it's been revealed that Black Bolt and co. have drafted a former X-Man too. Hank McCoy, AKA Beast, will suit up alongside Black Bolt and Medusa to search for their son, Ahura, in the very first arc from Charles Soule.
"Kind of like what we did with Guardians, and are doing with Doctor Strange," the writer tells Mashable. "Once we make this movie announcement, we wanted to come out of the gate swingin'." Sounds like certain aspects of this new take might inform the upcoming movie, which has already had foundations laid in Marvel's Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. TV series.
Here is the cover for issue #1, featuring artwork from Steve McNiven.
"Eight months will have passed between that monumental finale and the beginning of all Marvel’s reboots — about 60 titles in all will re-start with fresh No. 1s — and something “mysterious” will have transpired in that time between the mutants and the Inhumans. Whatever it is, it will have landed Hank McCoy on the side of the royal family."
