Now with this cover to Inhumanity #1 featuring Karnak kicking into action courtesy Marvel. Could this be a teaser that he’s the only survivor of the Royal Family?
Paranoia infects the Marvel Universe as seen by a new round of teasers for a big event coming in September. After the “Is He?” teaser my speculation hinted at the death or return of a major character or a something connected to the upcomingInhumanity event.
With this latest round of teasers we now know it’s the Inhumans! In the aftermath of Infinity and Black Bolt’s conflict with Thanos – it’s possible the Terrigen Mist (which give young Inhumans their powers) will spread to the Earth’s surface…and the human population.

This inspiration for Flashback Friday is by this week’s DC Comics Villains Month kickoff and Forever Evil #1!
Now we know the Crime Syndicate is the real power behind The New 52 Secret Society of Super Villains. These dark alternate versions of Justice League icons have come from another world to conquer Earth.

“I’m naked,” says the star. “But when I do get to wear clothes, I love the ’70s outfits.”
After two arcs of outer space adventures writer Kieron Gillen is bringing Iron Man back home. After exploring The Secret Origin of Tony Stark Gillen teases what’s next on Marvel.com.
“#16 and #17, this is what Tony brings back from space. Tony has changed and stuff has changed on Earth. That’s what is really interesting to me. It’s the classic journey. You send someone away and they learn and bring stuff back. There’s sort of an odyssey vibe in it, where he discovers some things about himself. Of course, time continues back on Earth and in the Marvel Universe, Continue reading IRON MAN Back to Earth Preview
