I enjoyed reading it a few years ago. Particularly liked how Chris and Saladin started the Absorbing Man’s path to redemption.

And it’s not like it’s never been done before.

Also made me cheer for the Absorbing man AND Titania.

David Hine did some great work with them too, particularly Silent War with gorgeous art by Frazer Irving.

Jenkins had an amazing mini-series in the 90s of the Inhumans. You’re absolutely right that it can be done in the right hands. But it kind of also takes a knowledge of what role the Inhumans have that isn’t being a mutants replacement.

What's that old Neal Adams saying again?

"There are no bad characters, just bad writers."

I liken them to DC's LSH, my favorite of all time (Giffen's Five year gap Legion ruled.). But a lot of writers don't know what to do with them and any real big stories are hampered by the big titles (X, Avengers etc.)
