The next generation(s) of Marvel fans will be about the inhumans, just like the previous generations of Marvel fans were about X-Men once the mutants they got their decades-long push of their own. X-Men weren't poppin like that when they first got out.
It's now a matter of when, not if. There is a precedent for this.
ain't no claremont multicultural succeed in the 70's revamp gonna save the inhumans.At the most they'll either
a. Throw Bendis on the shyt with Stuart Immomen on art and also ghostwriting
b. Throw Gillen on writing with McKelvie on art (if they cut that check) and make them all gay teenage swingers.
I doubt that will be the case.The next generation(s) of Marvel fans will be about the inhumans, just like the previous generations of Marvel fans were about X-Men once the mutants they got their decades-long push of their own. X-Men weren't poppin like that when they first got out.

The X-Men was a low selling, middle of the road comics franchise until Marvel struck gold (completely by accident) with Giant Sized X-Men and the team of Claremont/Cockrum and then Claremont/Byrne.
X-Men's popularity was totally organic and driven by comic book readers falling in love with what Claremont was doing with the book and its characters.
All this stuff with The Inhumans is editorial driven by Marvel and they are trying to force feed these characters to fans despite all responses to them being lukewarm at best. You can't editorially mandate popularity.
Why does Marvel keep giving Greg Land work? He has only gotten shyttier with each passing year.
FINALLY, an interesting X-Lineup (except for Old Man Logan)
Greg Pak And Greg Land Launch 'Weapon X' Team Book
And Old Man Logan in more than one X-book is stupid.
At the most they'll either
a. Throw Bendis on the shyt with Stuart Immomen on art and also ghostwriting
b. Throw Gillen on writing with McKelvie on art (if they cut that check) and make them all gay teenage swingers.
jesus christ. the sad this is i believe this. i dont think the "talent" is capable of making the inhumans work. marvel needs to start poaching dc talent, or look elsewhere beyond the old tired ass dudes writing now.
I'm less interested in what can be done with the Inhumans Royal Family and more interested in what Marvel does with Cloak and Dagger, and Blade. You don't need a direct x-men replacement, as the Avengers themselves have taken that seat as Marvel's most popular team brand.
And if Marvel is smart (which they aren't always) they'll make "Defenders" with Daredevil/Cage/IF/Jessica/Elektra/Punisher/Misty as their second tier team brand that deals with the more street to mid-level threats. Avengers and Defenders should be their top two.
At that point you have misc characters like Ty and Tandy, who just need to evolve from the same tired shtick of the last.. 30 years? They can be more than Spider-man's occasional side kicks when they aren't hiding in Gothic churches or brooding about whatever they be brooding about.
I don't need to go into detail about Blade.

Greg Pak and Rucka are extremely average writers but get a lot of praise. Rick's WW is terribly bland right now.
Greg Land always seems to be working on the best X books, so maybe this will be it. Lineup is redundant though.
Marvel needs to put some money in Jeff Parker's pocket to write some X books.
There is also another problem. They don't have any classic stories in their catalogue readers who are excited about a character or team dives into their past to read more.
They've always been relegated to isolation or heavily reliant on Terrigen Mists. They aren't even a united group, it's mostly Bolt out on his own with Medusa explaining his feelings as that dog sits in the background.
I'm hard pressed to even think of what their powers are. They are cardboard flat in terms of personality. Past collections wouldn't even reflect new personalities they receive from new writers.

Tranquilo
Rucka keeps it simple, but it's enjoyable. I'm not a huge fan of is, but I like his stuff.
Red Shield

You a Cloak and Dagger fan breh
I dunno... main reason it seems to me like those two were created was just to be a interracial couple. Which isn't a big deal anymore.
Their powers shoulda stayed switched tho
