Inhumans Season 1 Episode 2 "Those Who Would Destroy Us" Review


The Royal Family is separated and scattered in Hawaii, hunted by the royal guard. Black Bolt is arrested while his brother takes over as King.

This was a really interesting and entertaining episode that did a good job of picking up where the last episode left off and really showed how each of the royal family deals with their situation. The moments with Medusa were really interesting with her trying to find Black Bolt and the loved the moment between the two of them where Medusa asks him for any kind of sign to let her know he's okay and he just has her listen to his heartbeat, to me that was just a perfect moment for the two of them. Then I really enjoyed all the moments with Gorgon and him deciding that he is not just going to sit around and wait and see what will happen to him instead he is going to stand his ground and fight whoever comes for him. And him making friends with these random beachgoers was really fun to see. Then all the moments with Karnak were really interesting with him struggling through the jungle trying to find Black Bolt but he has a really bad concussion that is messing with his skills. And I'm really curious to know if they gave Inhuman abilities to Karnak because in the comics he refused to gain powers and instead he trained himself in these skills, but in this show, it really seems like there push more than his tactical foresight is a special ability and not a skill. And then with that I'm very curious as to what they are doing with Maximus because they really seem to be pushing on the idea that he is just a human and that the Mist turned him human, while in the comics everyone believed that until he took over and started showing his powers so I want to know if they are going to stick with the human side of him or when are they going to show his powers. Then all the moments with Crystal where alright with Maximus trying to get her to tell the public that he is king now. Then I liked the moment with Maximus going into the mines and trying to get the lower classes on his side. Then the moments with Black Bolt were really fun and really interesting with him just not understanding how he should behave on Earth and it causing a lot of trouble for him. It was a little annoying how when Black Bolt does get arrested how they keep trying to push him to talk and then when his started signing to him they just seem to ignore that and think that he is a jerk for not talking but at least he is working with them. And just overall this was a really interesting and entertaining episode and I'm really curious to see what will happen next.
