The Creeper and The Inhumans

 

I always gravitated towards the offbeat heroes, so this is an issue I would have grabbed off of the stand without thinking. I can see Jack Ryder launching an investigation into what's happening on the Blue Area of the Moon and then unwittingly getting caught up in an interplanetary incident.

  1. Brilliant ! Maximus would have fun with the insanity of the Creeper, but he might make blackbolt scream in anger…

  2. The Creeper has always been a favorite of mine. Would love to see him teamed with Captain America. Not a natural pair-up for sure, but perhaps their similar origin stories could be the basis.

  3. @Simon: Or, even worse, Blackbolt could laugh like the Creeper!

  4. Aha! So, that's who the cybernaut was working for back in STF #4096. Maelstrom!!

  5. @Cary: who knows? Maelstrom could be even having a turf war with Darkseid (from yesterday's cover).

  6. Maximus:Hmm....This Skull should be just right for my new doorknocker.
    Creeper: I could get you my twin and you could us for cuff links.
    Maximus: Too gauche. One will do.
    Creeper: As long as you don't mind the lumps or the holes in my head.
    Maximus: Sigh..., maintenance is such a bother.
    P L O P....

  7. @Tobor: This isn't Blackbolt's brother, Maximus the Mad. It's Maelstrom; son of their father's rival, Phaedor, by a Deviant mother.

  8. @anon 3:51, thanks. Haven't really read marvel since they killed Peter off while Otto was the "Superior Spider"...twice! It hasn't been the same since.

  9. Maelstrom was introduced back in the 1980's as part of a story arc in the original Marvel Two-In-One.
