>>153771628different Smasher than usual
>>153771691but frank should still have his Ghost Rider Powers
>>153771921Shame this series is only a mini, deserved to go longer than five issues
>>153771628>>153772323WHAT HAPPENED TO HICKMAN'S SMASHER?
>>153772579Happily married to Cannonball, both have fucked off and are raising their kids.
>>153772323>>153772705They don't usually send two Neutrons eitherI thought the difference between Superguardian and Subguardian was that there is one Superguardian of each class and there are multiple subs waiting in the wings to replace them if/when they die

>>153772323Well they need a Heel smasher to do semi villanous stuff like this
>>153772436Idk why Marvel thought bringing the inhumans back for Imperial would be a good ideaI blame them for this new wave of cosmic books being so shortlived
>>153775730Hickman wanted to reset Cosmic Marvel to the Realm of Kings status quo, I guess
>>153775730If anything Imperial getting cut was due to event fatigue and the comic budget funneled to the X-men and back to back events. Plus Nova, Black Panther, SHe-hulk, and Guardians are all coming off of shit selling runs that couldn't even reach 12 issues. The only thing that had hype coming out of the even was the Inhumans return and Star lord's semi heel turn and neither were followed up on.
Surprisingly decent, too bad that it was cut so short.>>153775730It's no longer vogue to blame the Inhumans for everything wrong with Marvel, the event wasn't doing gangbusters even before it was revealed that the Inhumans came back, it's cosmic Marvel, it was never a huge draw.
>>153771873>can his armor fuck people's mind or is that a new thing? What is with Abnet and his mindfuck fetish? Ian Flynn is the same way.
She Hulk and Black Panther were just bad fits. Stop trying to frame every genre imprint around the same batch of earthbound MCU synergy characters!Imperial didn't have the juice but Annihilation was never the biggest seller. Modern Marvel, desperate for a hit, tried to ramrod their event slop format on a burnt out audience tired of being jerked around. This and Nova were fun books. I have no hope for Steve Foxe but Exiles would have been a better fit a launch fit too. Modern Marvel should have been sensible and launched the post Imperial books as intentional minis and the best one had a chance for ongoing. Also realizing that "Nova: Centurion" was a bad title, they should have been cheeky and called it "Nova For Hire" or "Nova: Space Hero for Hire" so audiences knew what the premise was
>>153783949its a sad sign of the times that Marvel thought a more profitable use of Hickman's expensive contract was to put him on "Vampire X-Men" instead of "Inhumans relaunch"
>>153783949I think if they got the original planned 10 issues they might have gained some steam over time. According to Icv2 Nova seem to be going up and She-hulk was stable. They seemingly have no room for lower selling titles especially if that shit slot said about books getting cancelled based off debut pre-orders is true. Midnight being spidey and the fucking X-men with Hickman is proof enough that they gun shy on anything below A-list.
>>153784027There was a social media post confirming that Marvel was proactively sidelining Inhumans to the point that they're being left out of the newest games unless the developers were actively fighting for their inclusion, they never had a chance for a relaunch even if Imperial bucked the trend and did good numbers for a cosmic title.
>>153784950That's probably why the event that was about the return of the inhumans didn't have an inhuman tie in or spin off. They aren't even getting the chance to fail. I guarantee it's only because of Hickman's weight they even got that much. The guy seems to have some sort of preference for even without ever actually writing an inhumans title.
>>153785139Bump
Tiresome.
>>153782025Pretty sure the armour not doing mind control goes back to War of Kings
