I LOVE Black Bolt. King BAMF.
I used to and then he came back to life and started this whole 5 brides thing with "universal inhumans" and I just hate it.
Ooooooooooh. Yeah, I haven't read any of that.
Is this RoK?
(Cosmic Marvel noob here)
Nope, Future Foundation, if I'm not mistaken. I've read RoK and WoK and Emperor Vulcan and that never happened in any of those.
I thought DnA did a great job with Black Bolt and the Inhumans. I loved them leading the Kree, and the development of Crystal and Ronan's relationship. From their marriage being a necessity to them actually falling for each other has been quite lovely. Black Bolt "dying" was sad, but of course we knew you can't kill that guy..! If minor characters don't stay dead, there's no way you kill the King of the Inhumans, and such a big fan favorite...
I don't like the FF stuff as much because Black Bolt just comes back out of nowhere, and they abandon the Kree, and fly right back to the Moon... it was a little sudden and felt like Hickman just wanted to ignore DnA's stories and alter things to fit his plans. He's usually a pretty tight writer, but this bothered me. The multiple brides is just dumb to me personally. Totally doesn't seem like a Black Bolt kind of thing. He's a one-woman man. How can he have such a strong bond with Medusa to the point that she knows what his kingly orders are if he is dividing his loving up with all these other women.. and then for them all to have the tuning forks on their heads seems silly.. it's not a crown, just a Jack Kirby design choice. Medusa doesn't have one, but Lockjaw does... So does that make Lockjaw Black Bolt's wife...?
In the end, I trust Hickman will write a good story, but I don't like how he's pushed around my Inhumans thus far.
