I like each one. Karnak and medusa look great and it looks like Medusa will have a splash of Wolvie in her to come. Inhumans may have a great year afterall!

They please me, though Gorgon seems to be getting progressively less bestial with each appearance.
It's as though they're trying to stealth retcon Silent war:frown:

Dude, Silent War was retconned the second a new Inhumans books came out after. NONE of the effects of SW were followed through.

Less? i thought he was more! Love the new costumes- I'd like to see the Inhumans on earth, minus Medusa and Black Bolt, spread out among the various super teams.
Man, Medusa looks like a ticked-off tranny. Crystal just wishes she was in a different comic book.

Hmmm. I hope that isn't gladiator's new look, but it does catch the eye. Who is that balding sh'iar woman?

I like the Inhumans but I like the Imperial Guards a little more because they are based on the Legion of Super-heroes whom I love so I’m disappointed that they are always manhandle by every-damn-body.
If they represents the best of each world in the Shi’ar Empire, than I can’t see how the Empire lasted this long because they NEVER win a fight. It’s like 20 to 4. Are the IG just standing there until one of the Ihumans finish with so they can get beat up next?
Gladiator needs to replaced every last one of them.

That’s just his mourning outfit. The love of his life just was killed.

The Secret Invasion book or did I miss one?
I was hoping against hope that Maximus had installed Black bolt as a figurehead to quiet dissent while he ran things.
Guess I can't do that anymore.
Not a fan of new Karnak`s look, i prefer Lee`s version(if i`m not mistaken he designed him with tats on the head, no?). Glad to see Crystal getting new costume but why she is wearing mask? Gorgon looks better. Medusa imo looks great, honoring BB by wearing similar mask. And can Triton just be a fcking merman instead of wtf this is.
Gladiator is obviously mourning but i`d like new costume too.

Um - sorry, but I've looked at this twice and I don't see Gladiator anywhere in those three pages. Where is he? Are you mistaking Triton for Gladiator?

SI:Inhumans
And some Inhumans like Max, last time he took over people were all happy because they didnt like some of the stuff BB did. Besides, he mind controlled everyone but BB and Luna so there is no need to theatrics.

i was the replying to the 2nd CBR post (http://forums.comicbookresources.com/showpost.php?p=9501215&postcount=6), the one above that reply.
the mods apparently felt that since both posts were about space they could be in one thread.

Yes,Luna.And I begin to wonder,if Crystal gets fed up with her family and decides to return to Earth with her daughter.If i recall,we got some hints of a reunion in Mighty Avengers,and Pietro and Crystal are good candidates.
Also,off topic here,we never got a mention about Crystal's father,did we?

Go Medusa!! She's so awesome.
Yay for a Luna appearance.
I wonder what the Starjammers will do in this?

Oh, OK. Thanks for the link.
I like Gladiator's black costume - hope he goes back to his classic look soon, however.

I'm not sure when and where it happened but somewhere along the line I've become a huge fan of the Inhumans. Like, I really like them!
I guess I inadvertently started following them with Son of M...
I don't really care for the space stuff but the Inhumans ensured I was there for War of Kings, (aswell as having followed Vulcans story since Deadly Genesis) and I'll sure as heck be getting their Realm of Kings mini!
I do like the new costumes, except for Crystals, don't like her in a mask and with that much black. Still, it may grow on me.
Karnak and Triton are awesome! Really looking forward to this. Havn't decided wether I'll get the Imperial Guard mini, although I do have a soft spot for them thanks to the 90's X-Men cartoon Phoenix saga...

Wasn't she taken out of action during the KINGBREAKER miniseries and thus completely miss out on WAR OF KINGS?

Indeed. I presume he'll be moving off the cosmic books (sad) but hopefully onto another title soon.
