Wait, the Horsemen he sent to that other island are still alive? Shouldn't they be dead due to old age by now?

I'm curious if they will ever be brought back. Hickman seems to enjoy establishing groups of antagonists (the Council of Reeds, the HYDRA Council, the Black Order) and their internal dynamics. His Horsemen could be the most interesting version of the group since Remender's (the fact that they're all original characters rather than well-known heroes/villains converted by Apocalypse also helps).

Looks good. But Tini needs to drop some clues and get her pacing right.

Oh, and completely off-topic, but I was re-reading Inhumans vs X-Men and realized I really miss the Inhumans... I'd love to see them managing to recreate the terrigenesis process and rebuild their community. Only, of course, without causing any harm to mutantkind in the process and without any animosity between the two peoples, with both inhumans and mutants being able to coexist peacefully on the same planet.

But yeah, I know, that probably won't happen any time soon. It's sad how Marvel built them up to replace mutants when the X-Men were licensed to FOX, then completely abandoned them as soon as they got the X-Men movie rights back.

After that horrible TV show & the response to Inhumans vs X-Men, I don't think we'll be seeing them in anything major for a while.

Opal Luna returns for more and so I hope does the multiversity of Excalibur.

The Inhumans are the dog tail of the fantastic 4. Few care and know about them. Disney was out to spite Fox and I don't blame them because fox massacred the mutants.

Yeah, that TV show was awful.

Oh well, that's a shame. I think having a second minoritary group in the world would help Marvel to better explore the issues concerning different minorities. While mutantkind is an awesome metaphor for minorities, it feels artificial to concentrate the representation of ALL minorities in a single group.

@FSakwr I miss the Inhumans too, they’re one of my favorite Marvel franchises they have some really great and interesting stories. I wish Marvel would’ve let the Inhumans do their own thing rather than try to make them like the X-men. TBH Krakoa reminds me a lot of Atalian and the Inhumans. Hopefully they make a return soon

The Inhumans are cool for their monster like appearance. The Morlocks challenge Inhuman freakiness.
