Marvel Studios Developing "The Inhumans" ?
According to reports, Marvel Studios may be planning to adapt the Marvel Comics superhero characters "The Inhumans" for the big screen.
Debuting in Marvel Comics' "Fantastic Four" #45 (December 1965), created by writer Stan Lee and illustrator Jack Kirby, 'The Inhumans' are a race of 'superhumans'.
Writer/artist Kirby first made reference to the characters in the comic book story "Tuk the Caveboy", for "Captain America Comics" #1, (1941).
Kirby wrote that in the city of 'Atillan', a race of peoples lived that were evolutionarily advanced when other human beings were still in the caveman era.
"...At the beginning of the 'Kree-Skrull War', millions of years ago in Earth time, the alien 'Kree' established a station on the planet Uranus, a strategic position between the Kree and 'Skrull' empires. Through their work at this station, they discovered that sentient life on nearby Earth had genetic potential invested in it by the alien 'Celestials'.
"Intrigued, the Kree began to experiment on Earth's then-primitive Homo sapiens to produce the genetically advanced 'Inhuman' race. Their goal was to investigate ways of circumventing their own evolutionary stagnation, and to create a powerful mutant race of soldiers for use against the Skrulls.
"The Inhumans, went on to form a society of their own, which thrived in seclusion from the rest of humanity and developed advanced technology..."
The Inhumans are led by their king, 'Black Bolt', and his Royal Family, consisting of 'Medusa', 'Karnak', 'Gorgon', 'Triton', 'Crystal', 'Maximus the Mad', and the canine 'Lockjaw'.
