Inhumans
September 29, 2017 on Disney+
After the Royal Family of Inhumans is splintered by a military coup, they barely escape to Hawaii where their surprising interactions with the lush world and humanity around them may prove to not only save them, but Earth itself.

THE VERDICT
Synthesized from published reviews
Inhumans is the most compromised production in Marvel's television catalog — a series that began as a theatrical release, was redirected to television under a tighter budget and schedule, and never recovered from those decisions. The scope required to make the Inhuman Royal Family compelling is simply not present, Medusa's defining ability is neutralized in the opening episode by practical necessity, and the Hawaii setting gives the show an incongruously cheerful texture. Iwan Rheon does what he can with Maximus, and the premise itself contains real potential. The execution leaves all of it unrealized.
PLACE IN THE UNIVERSE
Where this fits in the larger story
Inhumans belongs to Marvel's wider screen history, outside a single clean continuity unless the record clearly connects it to the MCU. It adapts familiar Marvel characters through its own branch of superhero, fantasy, or action storytelling. Its placement helps viewers understand how this title fits the broader Marvel xVERSE while keeping separate continuities from being blended together.
