    And the countdown towards a possible line-wide reboot of the Marvel Universe has officially begun. Might sound far fetched, but given how there's going to be an event starting in April 2015, as hinted in the upcoming Avengers #35 and New Avengers #24 "Time Runs Out" story, involving the "final incursion", i.e. the 616 Earth about to collide into another universe, and if that is leading to a restarting/rebooting/re-imagining of the Marvel Universe, then it only make sense Marvel would have all these "radical" changes like a new Cap and Thor, the death of Wolverine, etc. taking place all at once. Just like when Marvel had Spider-Man unmask during Civil War since, with One More Day, they were going to restore his secret identity anyway along with erasing his marriage. Seems like a similar thing could be going on here, only across their entire line-up of books. In any case, I'd say the speculation regarding a possible "Marvel Reboot" has gained a lot more traction now.

    No. Those are characters that will play prominent roles.


    No Spider-man and No Wolverine nor any other x-men. Oh Scarlet Witch is kind of an x-menish, definitely a mutant.

    It's been so long since the last issue of Inhumans came out that I forgot all about Dante.

    Cool.

    True story: when I went to pick up new comics today, my LCS had a window advert for #4. I had to remind myself the #3 isn't out yet. First two were really good.

    I can't even remember where the last issue left off.

    That's probably because it's Avengers NOW and Wolverine is going to be dead soon.

    Also, Bendis said that the X-men will be in a very different place after the "Last Will and Testament of Charles Xavier" is concluded.

    I suspect some big announcement regarding the X-men close to the end of that story.

    Just rechecked. Lineage (who made an appearance in the last issue of Original Sins) goes before Medusa and tells her that while she thinks she's continuing on with Black Bolt's wishes for the Inhumans, she's doing it all wrong.

    ETA: "...I know why he did what he did. [This was shown in OSins #3.] I know his plan. I know things you don't know. I know everything. And baby, you're screwing this up something fierce."

    Marvel NOW! promoted cosmic concepts.
    All-New Marvel NOW! promoted the Inhumans.
    Avengers NOW! is promoting the Avengers.

    Spider-Man consistently holds his own, but we yet again fail to see the F4 and X-Men get any love.

    I'm doubtful everyone (or even half) of those characters will actually be on an Avengers team.

    For those reading the "Inhuman" title, how is this Dante character so far?

    Only two titles in I know, but does the character have potential?

    That they named the character with the fire-based powers "Dante" should give you some sort of clue, I think.

    He is not at all in control of his powers. At the end of his story in #2, Lash has promised Dante's sister (who is pregnant but did not turn when exposed to the Terrigan Mist) that he will teach Dante how to control his power. He's also a drummer, and laments with Lash that "not everyone wants to hear Slayer at their wedding".

    He looks to be the reader's surrogate in terms of the New Guy who doesn't know a thing about Inhumans and what it means to be one.

    It also looks like his Inhuman name will be Inferno.

    If he doesn't get a sidekick/partner named Virgil I will be disappointed.
