COMICS: Marvel Offers First Look At Matt Fraction's INHUMAN; Will Peter Parker Return?
After Infinity, Marvel and Matt Fraction will launch a new series called Inhuman as part of a line-wide event - similar to "Dark Reign" - called "Inhumanity" as the Terrigen Mists get released across the world. Does the Steve McNiven pencilled cover reveal the return of the AMAZING Spider-Man?!
Compared to Game of Thrones, Matt Fraction's Inhuman series will put the spotlight on the Inhumans in a story which will apparently see the Terrigen Mists released throughout the world. This will result in millions of Inhuman descendants around the world suddenly witnessing the activation of their dormant Inhuman cells, something which Marvel Editor-in-Chief Axel Alonso promises will have huge ramifications. "There is a secret superhero kingdom, and you might belong there. What do you do? And what does Iron Man do? We’re turning the entire Marvel universe into a potential battlefield. And regular people are in the middle." This certainly sounds like an odd premise for the increasingly convoluted Marvel Universe, but the most interesting thing about the cover above is the inclusion of the Amazing Spider-Man, a seemingly resurrected Nightcrawler and a new costume for Wolverine. What do you guys think?
