Inhuman Mystery

March 17, 2018 By Doc Filed Under: News and Articles

 

Some very intriguing works in progress that has been posted on the twitter and instagram of artist extraordinaire, Ariel Olivetti.  There’s no way of telling what book this is for, whether it’s a flashback scene, part of some cosmic tale or even a new Inhumans series or miniseries.  In any case, the pictures look terrific and I’m very much looking forward to learning what this project is.

Who Is Marvel Boy?

April 6, 2017 By Doc Filed Under: News and Articles

With he first issue of Al Ewing and Jonboy Meters’, The Royals, the Inhumans are joined by a new and mysterious ally: Marvel Boy.  Also known as Noh-Varr, Marvel Boy has a long and complicated backstory.  He is additionally an exceptionally cool character and if there is to be a non-Inhuman member of the Royals squad then I can think of few better candidates.
So whats the back story on this guy?

Noh-Varr was a member of the 18th Kree Diplomatic Gestalt originating from an alternate reality (Earth 200080 to be exact).  He and the crew of their dimension-hopping spacecraft, The Marvel, were investigating a clash between Astro Gods that threatened the longstanding peace between The Kree and Skrull Empires of their dimension.

Caught in the crossfire between these waring Astro-Gods, the Marvel was thrown into a tear in the multiverse and the crew worked desperately to navigate their craft back to their home dimension.  Unfortunately, they overshot and ended up emerging from the multiverse into the 616 reality of the standard Marvel Universe.

The Marvel emerged near Earth and they attempted to land there so to make repairs and adjustments for another effort to reach their home dimension.  Upon entry into earth’s atmosphere, however, the ship was struck by a series of rockets launched by the forces of the eccentric billionaire known as Dr. Midas.

Midas was obsessed with the collection of alien and extra dimensional artifacts which he hoped would imbue him with superpowers.  He had monitored the Marvel’s entry into the atmosphere and ordered it shot down so that the wreckage could be salvaged and reverse-engineered to serve his purposes.
Noh-Varr had been the chief engineer aboard The Marvel.  His mother and father were the captain and first officer and his girlfriend, Meree, was the navigator.  Noh was the sole survivor of the crash and he was taken prisoner by Midas’ forces.  Midas had planned to dissect Noh so to see what aspects of his biological might be replicated and weaponized.

Most Kree differ from Humans in subtle ways.  On average, the Kree are stronger and more durable compared to humans, with an elongated lifespan.  Noh possesses these augmented qualities along with additional abilities unique to the Kree of his dimension.  In Noh’s home dimension, Kree science had managed to navigate around the evolutionary ceiling of their race by way of adding genetic material to their DNA borrowed from an insect-like species.  This addition imbues Noh was greatly enhanced speed and reflexes, heightened strength and the power to adhere to surfaces with his hands and feet.  Noh’s saliva also contains nanobots that has the effect of making those who come into contact with it highly susceptible to the power of suggestion.  Noh was able to utilize these abilities to facilitate his escape from Midas’ compound.

Among the wreckage of The Marvel, Noh managed to salvage Plex, an sentient, organic computer that retained a massive amount of data specifically oriented to combat situations and martial strategies.  Noh also salvaged several weapons, including a pair of wristbands that could reshape themselves into several highly powerful weapons.

Concluding that all of Earth was as evil and murderous as Midas, Noh decided to wage war on the earth and make it the capital of the New Kree Empire of this dimension.  Following a number of adventures and a great deal of property destruction, Dr. Midas was seemingly killed and Noh was ultimately apprehended by Shield.  Following his capture, Noh was incarcerated in the supermax penitentiary known as The Cube.

The Warden of The Cube proved to be a corrupt and sadistic individual who used his prisoners to forward his own agenda.  Shield director, Maria Hill, seemed to be aware of The Warden’s ulterior motives, but allowed him to remain at his post so long as those criminals held their remained imprisoned.  The Warden attempted to reverse engineer Plex, but failed to do so and it resulted in the living computer’s death.  The warden then used
an unspecified technology to exert control over Noh’s will, making him into an enforcer to do his bidding.

During the first Superhero Civil War, The Warden was tasked with capture the young reengaged superheroes known as The Runaways and The Young Avengers.  The Warden dispatched Noh to take out these heroes.  Noh made short work of these heroes, capturing several of them and leaving the rest battered.

During the battle, Noh was gravely injured when The Visions’ arm became stuck in Noh’s chest mid-intangible.  Once revived, The Vision was able to hone in on his detached arm to locate the whereabouts of their captured teammates.  Attacking The Cube, the Runaways and Young Avengers once again took on Noh.  This time, however, The Vision was abel to scramble the mind control circuits that kept Noh under the Warden’s power.

The heroes all escaped and Noh extracted his vengeance over the Warden, using that same mind control technology to effectively lobotomize him.

Orphaned and marooned in a foreign dimension, Noh was left unsure what to do.  He ultimately decided to remain at the Cube, keeping his freedom a secret, and acting as the prison’s de facto jailer.

Shortly thereafter, Noh was visited by the first incarnation of The Illuminati.  These luminaries of the hero community saw great potential in Noh-Varr and attempted to guide him toward taking a heroic path.  Noh was initially reluctant to accept the advice offered to him by the Illuminati, yet the wisdom imparted on him would eventually take hold.

Noh-Varr was still maintaining the Cube at the time of the Skrull Secret Invasion event.  Numerous Skrull agents had infiltrated the Cube and Noh rallied the rest of the prisoners in a successful effort to repel the invaders.  During this time, Noh encountered a Super Skrull by the name of Kkn’nr, who had taken the guise of the Original Captain Marvel (Mar-Vell).  Kkn’nr had come to believe that he actually was the real Mar-Vell and he died valiantly fighting for Earth.  Noh was very much moved by the heroism and self sacrifice demonstrated; so much so that it inspired him to also take on the responsibility of protecting the people of Earth.

Noh-Varr’s decision to become a hero, coupled with his relative naiveté made him an ideal candidate to be recruited by Norman Osborn when he was forming his Dark Avengers during the Dark Reign era.  Osborn had slithered his way into the directorship of Shield following the Secret Invasion and formed his own group of Avengers to act as the steel fist of his new agenda.

Assuming the name of ‘Marvel Boy,’ Noh agreed to participate in Osborn’s Avengers team and he served with distinction in their earlier adventures.  Noah’s teammate, Moonstone (Karla Sofen) took a fancy in Noh and seduced him following a successful mission.  Afterward, Soften divulged to Noh that Osborn was a villain, that his ultra-vigilant stance on earthly defense was just a ruse to consolidate authoritarian power (sound familiar?).
Having discovered the truth behind Osborn’s intentions, Noh decided to leave the Dark Avengers.  He was assigned by Osborn to obtain the advanced weapons production plant known as ‘The World.’  Defying Osborn’s orders, Noh teamed up with Wolverine (Logan) and Fantomex and thwarted Osborn’s efforts to obtain ‘The World.’

Labeled an enemy agent, Osborn sent The Sentry to neutralize Noh.  Noh was able to evade The Sentry and he built a communications relay platform to contact The Kree Empire of this Dimension (hoping he could gain amnesty on the Kree world pf Hala).

Noh’s transmission was received by the Supreme intelligence of The Empire.  Rather than offering Noh a means of reaching Hala, however, The Supreme Intelligence decided that Noh was a suitable candidate to assume the role once held by Captain Mar-Vell as the Kree protector of Earth.  A pair of advanced Nega-Bands were teleported to Noh that imbued him with vast new powers.  Re-dubbing himself ‘The Protector’ Noh was ultimately able to fend off The Sentry and escape Osborn’s pursuit.

Later, following Osborn’s defeat and the Siege of Asgard, The Protector was recruited by The Avengers to assist in a mission to take on Kang The Conquerer.   Noh was granted full membership to The Avengers and aided them in battles against The Hood, Hydra and The Serpent.  During this time, Noh began a romantic relationship with a young art school student named Annie.

During the Avengers versus X-Men event, Noh took part in a mission to head out into space and intercept the Phoenix Force before it could reach earth.  This mission ultimately failed, but the team did manage to exert a sample of the Phoenix Force energy that could be used as part of a weapon to defeat it.  Unfortunately, their spaceship was damaged, forcing the team to make a crash landing on the Kree planet of Hala.

While making repairs on Hala, Noh was summoned to an audience with the Supreme Intelligence.  The Intelligence commanded Noh to steal the energy sampling of The Phoenix Force so that Kree science might devise a proper means of destroy the cosmic entity and ending the threat it posed.

Noh obeyed this order, engaging a sneak attack on his fellow Avengers so to thieve the sample.  When he presented the sample to the Supreme Intelligence it was revealed to him that The Kree had no intentions of protecting the earth.  They would allow The Phoenix Force to destroy earth, temporarily sating its hunger for destruction and giving the empire the time needed to develop the means to defend itself.

Dismayed, Noh once again stole the sample so to return it to the Avengers.  Yet he had lost their trust.  The Avengers took back the sample, but left Noh behind declaring that he was forever banned from Earth.  To make matters worse, The Supreme Intelligence caused Noh Nega-Bands to disengage, dissolving his Protector battle suit and leaving him initially defenseless against the legion of Kree soldiers seeking his demise.
The Phoenix Force was ultimately contained by Hope Summers and the threat abated; and Noh was not heard from for some time.

Somehow, Noh was able to escape Hala.  Not knowing where else to go, Noh returned to Earth and used pilfered Kree material to create a home for himself in a satellite station orbiting the planet.  Despite all that he had been through, Noh had developed a great fondness for earth, its culture and art and especially its music.  He would frequently descend to the planet to buy records, attend concerts and dance clubs.

During one of these excursions, Noh encountered Kate Bishop, the young Avenger known as Hawkeye.  The two hit it off quite well and Kate ended up returning with Noh to his starlight home to spend the night.  What began as a one night fling ultimately blossomed into a romance.

Through his relationship with Kate, Noh became involved in the latest iteration of the Young Avengers.  Reassuming the named of Marvel Boy, Noh aided the Young Avengers in their dimension-trotting battle against the demonic force known only as ‘Mother.’
The Mother entity was finally defeated and destroyed and The Young Avengers drifted apart.  Noh and Kate also broke off their relationship though committed to remaining friends.

In the upcoming Inhumans Prime, it appears as though Noh has witnessed the aftermath of the Inhuman/Mutant War.  Being a Kree from an alternate timeline, Noh seems to be quite knowledgeable about the Inhumans as well as, possibly, the secrets of Terrigen.  It looks as though Noh will offer his services as a guide to the Royals in their quest into the cosmos to learn the mysteries of Terrigen.

Noh’s further adventures will be entailed in continuing installments of The Royals.  Marvel Boy/Noh-Varr was created by Grant Morrison and JG Jones.

‘Game of Thrones’ Actor Iwan Rheon to Play Key Character in “Marvel’s Inhumans”

February 21, 2017 By Seren Filed Under: Inhumans - ABC, Maximus the Mad, News and Articles, Royal Family, The Inhumans TV Show

Today Marvel Entertainment announced actor Iwan Rheon (Ramsey Bolton in “Game of Thrones”) is set to play the “key role” of Maximus the Mad in “Marvel’s Inhumans”.  For those not familiar with the Inhuman Royal Family (though I am pretty sure most of you are at this point), Maximus is Black Bolt’s brother.  Black Bolt’s rather unbalanced (to put it nicely) brother. His greatest hits include stealing the throne from Black Bolt on several occasions, sewing chaos throughout Inhuman society and being absolutely delightful while doing it.

Marvel couldn’t have cast a better actor for the role. We’re pretty sure that Iwan Rheon is going to turn Maximus into one of Marvel’s most beloved villains. For those wanting to become more familiar with Maximus read Charles Soule’s Uncanny Inhumans to see Maximus at his best. You will understand why we are excited for this announcement!

In other news (to be taken with a HUGE grain of salt), some tweets from Eliana Jones over on Twitter could possibly  confirm her role as Crystal in “Marvel’s Inhumans”.  It’s also a bit telling that she is following the Marvel’s Inhumans Twitter account. Hopefully we will get official confirmation of who the remaining cast members will be later this week.

More Inhumans Coming to Marvel Future Fight?

February 13, 2017 By Seren Filed Under: Karnak, Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur, News and Articles, Royal Family, Uncanny Inhumans

A couple of videos have popped up over on YouTube showing upcoming characters and their game play for Netmarbles Marvel Future Fight.  So far it looks as if Maximus, Crystal, Gorgon, Karnak, Inferno, and Moon Girl (& Devil Dinosaur!) are being added to the game. It also looks like there are new costumes for Ms. Marvel, Black Bolt, and Elsa Bloodstone being added as well.  No official announcement yet on when it goes live in the US (that I have been able to find), but hopefully we will have more information soon.

Seeing my favorite Inhumans added to the game has definitely given me incentive to go back.

The first video shows primarily Crystal, Moon Girl, and Maximus in action. The second adds Inferno, Karnak and Gorgon to the mix.

Hey! let’s get to know The Kree!

January 21, 2017 By Doc Filed Under: News and Articles

 1aa

The Kree are an ancient and highly advanced alien race from the Marvel Universe.  Millennia ago, The Kree came to Earth and performed experiments on prehistoric man, thus creating The Inhumans.  With Ewing and Meyers’ upcoming series, The Royals, it seems quite likely The Inhuman are once more going to come into conflict with The Kree.

With that in mind, let’s take a look at the Kree Empire as well as some of the more notable individual Kree the Inhumans may end up encountering.

image

The Kree Empire was founded millions of years ago when the shape-shifting Skrulls came upon the planet of Hala and introduced the relatively less advanced native people to their technology.  Led by Emperor Morag, the native Kree murdered their Skrull benefactors and stole the technology.  The Kree eventually mastered and advanced this technology becoming a formidable space-faring force set upon conquering the known universe.   The Skrulls ultimately returned to avenge the deaths of their emissaries and thus began the Kree-Skrull War, a conflict that has waged on for centuries.

image

The constant war between the Kree and Skrull Empires led both sides to develop newer and more advanced weapons.  The Skrull devised the reality warping Cosmic Cube whereas the Kree pooled their greatest intellects together to create a flawless tactical leader in the form of the Supreme Intelligence.  The Inhumans were another of The Kree’s attempt to forge a weapon in their war against the Skrulls.  They hoped that combining Celestial DNA with the primitive humans of earth might produce super soldiers to be sent to do battle with the Skulls.  It was an experiment the Kree ultimately abandoned.

image

Centuries passed and the war eventually made its way to Earth.  The Avengers interceded and brought about a temporary cessation in the conflict.

image

Later, The Skrull Empire suffered a significant blow when their throne world was destroyed and consumed by Galactus.

image

With the Skrulls seemingly defeated, The Kree quickly became embroiled in a new war against the Shi’ar Empire.  This first Kree/Shi’ar War came to an end with the detonation of the Nega Bomb, causing a rip in the space-time continuum that devastated the Kree Empire.  The remnants of this empire were then annexed by the victorious Shi’ar.

Shortly thereafter, the Kree’s high commander, The Supreme Intelligence, was assassinated in a coop orchestrated by the would-be usurper, Zarek.  With the assistance of The Avengers, Zarek and his forces her defeated and Ronan the Accuser assumed lordship over a new and rebuilding Kree Empire.

image

Later, the Shi’ar Majestrix, Lilandra, was murdered by the renegade Mutant, Vulcan, who then named himself the new emperor the Shi’ar.  Vulcan began a campaign of conquest that looked to again annex the fledgling new Kree Empire.

image

Following The Secret invasion event, Ronan entered into a pact with the Inhumans of Attilan.  Led by The Inhumans, The Kree fought back The Shi’ar and Emperor Vulcan was defeated and destroyed by Black Bolt.

image

In the aftermath of this war, Queen Medusa was made the ruler of the Kree Empire; a matter that was further cemented by the marriage between Ronan the Accuser and Medusa’s sister, Crystal.

image

The Inhumans ruled the empire for a brief time until Black Bolt led the Kree in a brief and decisive battle against the Council of Alternate Reality Reed Richards.   In the wake of this battle, a time-displaced adult Franklin Richards negotiated a peace treaty between earth and the Kree.  The Inhumans abdicated their rule over the Kree and the marriage between Ronan and Crystal was annulled.

image

Captured members of the Council of Alternate Reality Reed Richards were merged in a process that created a new Supreme Intelligence, who then ruled the new Kree Empire alongside Ronan The Accuser.  In the wake of the Infinity Event, The Kree emerged as an invigorated and powerful force through the cosmos.

Some time later, The Kree homeward of Hala was destroyed by the Slaughter Lords, a group of villains empowered by the Black Vortex.  The Empire has since establish Nova Hala IV as its new throne world.

More recently, operatives of the Empire have acted in a fashion suggesting they are no longer interested in honoring the treaty enforcing noninvolvement with earth.  Black Bolt encountered and dispatched several Kree agents who were conducted experiments on Earth and the Kree general, Padd-Varr, waged a brief and unsuccessful attack on the young Inhuman known as Moon Girl (a conflict that was actually the result of the general’s mischievous son, Mel-Varr).

image

What the future holds for The Kree and their involvement in the affairs of the Inhumans remains to be seen.

There are many notable Kree characters who have appeared over the years.  The following are just some of the names and faces who are likely to be referenced or possibly show up in future issues of The Royals.

Captain Mar-Vell, the greatest hero of Hala whose powers were eventually passed on to Carol Danvers.

Noh-Varr, a Kree from an alternative time-line.   He possesses powers and abilities far superior to the Kree of the 616 reality, indicating that he hailed from a version of the Empire that was able to traverse the upper limitations of Kree evolution.  Noh-Varr has been a member of the Avengers and Young Avengers and is set to be the Royal guide in their foray into the cosmos.

image

Carol Danvers.  A Kree/Human hybrid who gained the powers of Mar-Vell and is the current Captain Marvel.  She is the leader of Alpha Flight, a planetary security force that protects the earth from extra terrestrial threats.

Hulkling.  Teddy Alman (or Prince Dorrek VIII), a half-Kree who is the son of Mar-Vel and the former Skrull princess, Anelle.  Hulking possesses Skrull-based shapeshifting powers and has served as a member of The Avengers.  Both the Kree and Skrull Empires have sought to claim Hulking as their own due to his prestigious family lineage.

image

Ronan The Accuser.  A military high commander who rose through the ranks to lead the Empire.  He has acted as both enemy and ally to the Inhuman over the years and, though they parted on poor terms, it seemed clear that both he and Crystal maintain very strong feelings for one another.  It is a rather sure bet that Ronan will play a part in The Royals’ adventures in space.

The Supreme Intelligence, or Supremor, is the tactical and intellectual leader of the Empire; an organic computer who is a living depository of the collective knowledge of their entire race.  Although not one to put stake in spiritual prophecy, Supremor remains steadfast on wanting to destroy the Inhumans so to prevent an ancient  prophecy dictating that The inhumans will one day destroy the Empire.

image

Phyla-Vell.  The daughter of Mar-Vell from an alternative timeline.  Phyla took on the mantle of her father and acted as the new Captain Marvel.  She later assumed the mantle of the hero, Quasar.  Phyla was apparently killed by Maelstrom, but it is quite likely that she will return at some point in the future.

Genis-Vell.  The artificially created son of Mar-Vell.  He too took on the mantel of his father and acted as the new Captain Marvel.  He was later apparently destroyed by Baron Zemo.

image

Doctor Minerva is a renegade Kree scientist who has been a reoccurring adversary of Carol Danvers.  Through her genetic experiments, Min-Erva has managed to endow herself with the same powers as Captain Marvel.  A former member of ‘Star-Force’ Kree task force it is possible that the villain will cross paths with The Royals.

Mel-Varr (also known as Kid Kree) is a Kree youth, daydreamer and troublemaker who has tasked himself with hunting Inhumans as an effort to win the approval of his overbearing father.  Kid Kree chose to track down the Inhuman, Lunella Lafayette, yet instead of capturing her he fell in love with her and was heartbroken and crestfallen when Lunella rejected his ovations and his father had to collect him from Earth.  It is very unlikely we have seen the last of Kid Kree.

image

Una.  A former love interest of Mar-Vell and the medical officer aboard the craft that brought him to earth.  Una tragically perished during a mission on Mars.

Bel-Dann.  A Kree colonel and decorated warrior who acted as a participant in the combat trial of Jan Grey.  Rather than fulfilling his duty to try to conquer the X-Men, Bel-Dann instead engaged in a grudge match against a Skrull soldier who was also their for the trial.  The battle between the two waged for years, well beyond the trial.  Their elongated conflict ultimately disrupted the marriage of Black Bolt and Medusa, after which both combatants were returned to their respective home worlds by The Watcher.  It’s quite likely that Bel-Dann still holds animosity toward The Inhumans for their interference.

image

Yon-Rogg.  A former colonel of the Kree Empire and longtime adversary of both Mar-Vell and Carol Danvers.  His current status and whereabout are unknown.

Mon-Tog.  A major in the Kree Empire and former adversary of The Inhumans.  Ton-Tog waged a hard-fought battle against Attilan and nearly proved victorious.  He is a skilled combatant and his use of advanced weaponry nearly enabled him to defeat Black Bolt in single combat.  Mon-Tog was ultimately defeated and forced to return to manning a Kree outpost near the Stent Star Cluster.  It’s a sure bet that Mon-Tog is desirous of a rematch against The Inhumans and quite possible that we will see him show up in the pages of The Royals.

image

Korath the Pursuer.  ‘Pursuers’ are a special designation among the military of the Kree, scientifically endowed individuals sent to extract vengeance on any who defied the empire.  Karate was originally sent to earth to destroy the Inhumans; a mission he ultimately failed to complete.  Korath has since been recruited into the StarForce program and his current whereabouts are unknown.    It’s a very good bet that he and the Inhuman will cross paths again some time soon.

Shatterax.  A cybernetically enhanced Kree solider who served in the Kree special missions program known as StarForce.  His current whereabout remain unknown, but it is possible that The Inhumans may run afoul of StarForce at some point in the pages of The Royals.

image

Ko-Rel.  A Kree captain who became a member of the Nova Corps while protecting and caring for a critically injured Richard Rider.  Ko-Rel fought valiantly but ultimately perished during the Annihilation cross-over event.

Wraith.  A mysterious Kree renegade who wields dark force energies and possesses unspecified psychic abilities.  The Wraith proved an invaluable asset to the Kree in their battles against The Phalanx.  His current status and whereabouts remain unknown.

image

At-Lass.  A Kree captain recruited by Minerva and imbued with superpowers.  He served as a member of the StarForce and was later mutated into a monstrous being by a device called the Psycho-Magnatron.

Falzon.  A kree scientist and weapons designer who created the super soldier known as Shatterstar (who was sent to earth to eradicate The Inhumans).  The test subject who became Shatterstar was actually, Falzon’s son, Arides.  Falzon had a change of heart, siding with the Inhumans as part of an effort to save his son.  Shatterstar turned on his father and murdered Falzon before being defeated by The Inhumans.

image

Shatterstar.  Arides,a Kree soldier who was transformed into an experimental super soldier by his scientist father.  Although the process endowed Arides with vast powers, it also drove him mad and he killed his father.  Shatterstar was ultimately defeated and seemingly destroyed; though it is possible that he or another version of Shatterstar might return to bedevil The inhumans.

Mac-Ron.  A skilled Kree scientist and frequent ally of Ronan The Accuser.  He hasn’t been seen from in some time and his current whereabouts remain unknown, but it is possible that he may return in the future.

image

Ael-Dan.  A former Kree general and one time emperor who managed to usurp The Supreme Intelligence to gain rulership over The Kree.  Ael-Dan’s rule proved temporary, however, as he was killed by Deathbird of The Shi’ar.

Una-Rogg.  The daughter of the Captain Marvel foe, Yon Rog.  Uma possesses vampire-like powers that allows her to drain the life energies from others by way of physical contact.  She set out to avenger her father’s death and ended up battling Mar-Vell’s son. Genis-Vell.  Uma-Rogg has been banished from the Empire by Ronan and her current whereabouts remain unrevealed.

image

Pad-Varr and Ell-Vok.  The parents of Mel-Varr, the Kree youngster known as Kid Kree.  Pad-Vara is a high-ranking general among the Kree military forces of Nova Hala IV; although it his wife, Ell-Vok who is actually vey much in charge of things in the Varr household.

image

Sentry(s).  Sophisticated and highly powerful androids that Kree explorers leave on planets so to monitor the development of the native life.  The androids monitor the progress of the natives and, if at any point they progress to a point where they may prove a threat to The Kree Empire, The Sentry then activates and uses its awesome powers and advanced weaponry to wipe this life out.  Sentry androids have additionally been utilized in military campaigns.

Ultimus.  A Kree powerhouse who is both a Kree as well as an Eternal.  Ultimo battled Thor and later returned to Hala where he was made a member of the Starforce in the Kree’s war with The Shi’ar Empire.  His current whereabout are unknown.  He’s a tough customer and could definitely stand his own against Black Bolt.  It would be a cool battle to see.

image

The Priests of Pama.  In the earlier history of Hala, The Kree shared the planet with a cousin race known as The Cotati.  These were a much more peaceful and spiritually inclined people whom the militarized Kree subjugated and nearly all but wiped out.  What was left of The Cotati fled Hala to places unknown, some ending up on Earth where they fostered a secret enclave in a remote corner of Viet Nam.  They continued their spiritual practices, training the hero and former Avenger known as Mantis; these mystics additionally assisted Phyla-Vell.  Some of the Cotati remained on Hala and assimilated into Kree culture, ultimately founding the bedrock of the spiritual faith of The Kree people.

image

Morag.  The first ruler of the nascent Kree Empire.

Huran The Accuser.  The lord of the Accuser Caste thousands of years ago.  The Supreme Intelligence had learned of a prophecy suggesting that the Kree’s Inhuman experiments would bring about the downfall of the Empire.  Not will to risk such a fate, all such experimentations were abandoned and Huran was sent to cull all of the Inhumans created throughout the galaxy.  Huran did not possess the complete list of all such planets and five managed to survive; the Earth and its Inhumans were among this group.

image

Galen Kor.  A veteran of the Kree/Shi’ar War who sought out vengeance on the Avengers for their interference.  Later, Kor was placed in charge of a forward operations base during the Annihilation event.  He tasked Peter Quill (Star Lord) with a dangerous mission to take out a Kree settlement that had been overrun by the Phalanx.  The team Quill ultimate recruited for this mission became the new Guardians of the Galaxy.

Ten-Cor.  Galen Kor’s assistant and chief medical officer.  Ten enjoyed a friendly and flirtatious relationship with Peter Quill (Star Lord).

image

Zarek.  The self-proclaimed prime minister of the Kree Empire and founder of the Lunatic Legion.  Zaire was a zealot and racial supremacist who believed that blue-skinned Kree were superior to their pink and brown skinned cousins.  He formed his Lunatic Legion as part of an effort to overthrow the Empire and impose his racist agenda.  As part of an effort to neutralize the threat this would-be dictator posed, The Supreme Intelligence posed Zarek and his forces against Captain Mar-Vell.  Mar-vell handily defeated the Legion and Zarek was deposed and banished from the empire.

Devros.  A former grand admiral of the Kree armada.  Devisor was captured by the Brood and transformed into their new Brood King, reselling a hybrid Brood/Kree being.  Devisor was ultimately defeated and killed by Captain Mar-Vel.

image

Talla-Rann.  A lieutenant in Zarek’s Lunatic Legion.  Rann was dissolved by a malfunction in the omniwave projector.

Sro-Himm.  A scientist, ally to Zarek, and member of the Lunatic Legion.  Sro-Himm created the super villain Nitro who was sent to destroy Captain Mar-Vell.  The scientist was banished from the empire with the rest of the Lunatic Legion and his current whereabouts are unknown.

Please let me know if there are any key pieces of Kree history I’ve omitted or notable Kree characters who should be included in this list!

Character Breakdown for The Inhumans TV Show Revealed

January 11, 2017 By Seren Filed Under: News and Articles, Royal Family, The Inhumans TV Show

76933-129327-inhumansAfter a dry spell on news about Marvel’s The Inhumans, due to air this September, there has been another flurry of information about the show. Recently, ThatHashTagShow.com received a tip about a casting call for the series. It’s pretty clear that Marvel tried to disguise who each character was supposed to be by giving them names such as “Marty” and “Broderick”, but this list confirms that all our favorite Royals are set to be cast in the main series.  No word yet if Lockjaw, the Royals’ teleporting dog, is set to appear in the series.

Something interesting to note: For a majority of the roles, they are looking for actors and actresses between the ages of 30-40, with the exception of Crystal, who they want someone 18-25 for. For anyone who was wondering about the age difference between the two sisters, this pretty much confirms that it’s going to be at least 5-10 years.

Inhumans Production Date Revealed?

January 11, 2017 By Seren Filed Under: News and Articles, Royal Family, The Inhumans TV Show

There has been very little information released since ABC announced that The Inhumans will be coming to the network this fall. So far all we know is that the first two episodes are set to be released in IMAX theaters September 4, 2017 with the rest of the episode set to air on ABC on September 26th.  We’ve also learned that Iron Fist show runner Scott Buck will also be the show runner for  The Inhumans.  

But now it looks as if the possible production date has been revealed!

Shooting of @Marvel's #Inhumans for @ABCNetwork is scheduled to start in march between Chicago & Los Angeles. (via @prodweek)

Marvel has yet to confirm if this truly is the case, so please take this information with a grain of salt.  It’s interesting to see the filming locations – many seem to be surprised that it’s not taking place in Atlanta, GA where many of the movies are filmed. However, Marvel Television does most of it’s filming in LA or New York, so it’s really not much of a surprise.

Now if only we could get some sort of casting announcement.
