You’d expect a miniseries about an oversized teleporting bulldog to be a lot of fun, but the creative team of Marvel’s Lockjaw has gone above and beyond to create an exciting superhero adventure that showcases the wide scope of the Marvel Universe. Written by former Clickhole associate editor Daniel Kibblesmith with…

Al Ewing is the miracle worker of Marvel Comics. He does remarkable work evolving characters and concepts while staying true to the past, and books like Loki: Agent of Asgard, last year’s Rocket miniseries, and his Avengers spin-offs showcase his versatility, ambition, and enthusiasm for superhero stories. After …

The Inhumans have been a tough nut for Marvel to crack. Marvel has spent the last four years pushing the Inhumans in comics, but after the failure of the recent Inhumans TV miniseries, it seems like bigger plans for this franchise are dead on arrival. Which is a shame, because Inhumans comics are the best they’ve ever…

When it was first announced, the idea of filming the first two episodes of Marvel’s new ABC series Inhumans with IMAX cameras and releasing them together in theaters ahead of the network premiere seemed like a fun and clever way of helping the show stand out in an increasingly cluttered superhero marketplace.…

I can’t tell you anything about the premiere episode of Marvel’s Inhumans. The 40 minutes or so of the show that I and other members of the TV press have seen is a work in progress, with incomplete video and sound elements. It’d be a dereliction of our duties and responsibilities to render our opinions into reviews at…

This summer may seem like it’s dragging on because life in general is kind of rough these days, but ABC just got around to finalizing its fall schedule. That means we’ve got real confirmation about when we’ll get to see returning hits like Modern Family, The Goldbergs, and Black-ish, as well as newcomers like Freddie…

Each week, Big Issues focuses on a newly released comic book of significance. This week, it’s Black Bolt #3. Written by Saladin Ahmed (Throne Of The Crescent Moon) with art by Christian Ward (ODY-C, The Ultimates), this issue’s creative experimentation intensifies and informs its prison-break story. (This review…

You know how it is: once a network announces that it’s picking up a billion new shows in the span of a single day, they all start to run together. Is that the one that used to have a different name? How many of these are Marvel’s? Where’s that handsome young doctor, Zach Braff?

Now that production on ABC’s Inhumans—the latest series set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe—is underway, it was only a matter of time before we got a look at just how faithful it was going to be to the look of the characters from the comics. Of course, much like the shifting of the Inhuman home base from the moon to…

Marvel is putting a lot of effort into making the Inhumans a compelling property, and after a lackluster few years of Inhuman stories, the publisher is trying a new direction for these characters. The Inhuman royal family has taken to the stars in the Royals ongoing series, but one prominent member is missing: Black…

With superhero comics, the more things change, the more they stay the same, and this past weekend’s Chicago Comics & Entertainment Expo (C2E2) made that especially clear. Both DC and Marvel made big announcements about upcoming publishing initiatives at the annual convention, but neither Dark Matter nor Marvel Legacy…

Though they still haven’t found anyone to play the giant dog, the core cast of Marvel’s Inhumans TV series on ABC is coming together. Iwan Rheon from Game Of Thrones is playing the lovably evil Maximus, Hell On Wheels’ Anson Mount is playing the strong-but-silent Inhuman king Black Bolt, and now The Hollywood Reporter says

According to Entertainment Weekly, Marvel has managed to find an actor willing to go completely silent for the role of Black Bolt on ABC’s Inhumans TV series. That actor is Hell On Wheels star Anson Mount, with Marvel Television’s Jeph Loeb saying that Mount “loves the challenge of playing a character who will only…

As far as on-the-nose casting choices go, it doesn’t get more on-the-nose than this: According to The Hollywood Reporter, Game Of Thrones veteran Iwan Rheon has been hired to play Maximus The Mad on Marvel’s Inhumans TV show, meaning he’s going from one famously unhinged villain to another famously unhinged villain.…

We already knew the upcoming ABC series of Marvel’s Inhumans would be getting a larger-than-life debut by having its first two episodes filmed and premiered in IMAX on theater screens around the world. The eight-episode program (that is not meant to replace the formerly planned movie or be a spin-off of Agents Of…

Previously, on The A.V. Club: We previewed the next few months of TV premieres, casting (more often than not) an objective eye toward reboots of the sitcom and fantasy variety, a notably young pope, and a noticeably buffer Archie. Now its time to endorse some programs from further on in the TV calendar, either because…

The narrative overlap between Marvel’s flagship ABC series, Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D., and its Netflix shows has been essentially nonexistant, arguably because the entire MCU thought S.H.I.E.L.D. had disbanded long before the first season of Daredevil. (Hence, no one walking up to Luke Cage and asking why the hell the…

IMAX screens are big, but they’re not quite “you can see it from the moon” big. So it’s unlikely the Inhumans will be able to watch their own series premiere, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The occasionally moon-dwelling beings are getting an ABC show rather than a feature film, and now, details of the unusual…

For those still invested in an Inhumans movie, Marvel head honcho Kevin Feige is keeping that hope alive. Feige told /Film in a recent interview that despite the fact that a planned film was taken off of Marvel’s seemingly endless schedule, there’s the possibility that one could come to fruition. “I think Inhumans…
