365 Days of Defiance, Day 137: Some Things Are Better Left Unsaid

Hey, let's look at a good Inhumans story! Yep, there are some! In this one, Magneto gets ticked off that Marvel is trying to replace mutants with Inhumans, so he kidnaps and brain-enslaves Black Bolt. Whose real name is, have we mentioned before Blackagar Boltagon? hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee okay here's what happens.

It's horrendous! It's terrifying! It's totally earth-shattering...the mixing of Sony/FGox Marvel characters with Marvel Cinematic Universe characters! Also, it's a little scary that Magneto has Black Bolt under his thrall, which, as I think we can all agree, is a very uncomfortable place to be. Or...is he?


BLACK BOLT'S BREAKIN' LOOSE, BABY! LIVE FREE OR DIE! Etc.


So just a little minor skirmish, and Black Bolt quietly goes his way...not. Thus follows several pages of destruction the Mighty Marvel Way!



I presume they sent in Damage Control after that, which only goes to show: don't mess around with Black Bolt. Unless you pay him enough to present him on IMAX screens and on network television as a wuss and a pushover, in which case, fair enough.
