TV, movies, web media--this thread is the home for any Joss projects that don't already have their own threads, such as Dr. Horrible.
I'm thinking Skyedaddy's plan was to draw attention to himself by gathering up a group of second-string baddies. The coulson bit was just a bonus.
It's possible the "other" actual Inhumans group was what he was looking for. Maybe not by name as such, but he probably theorized their existence. It would explain his coolness a bit.
As for the town coming to see, I wonder if they had the game on the air when Roaring Man did his thing. I wonder if it works when reproduced? Hmmm.
I never followed the Inhuman's much. But in the sixties I read a few issues and they were ruled by a guy with powers like that of roaring man only much greater (also no stretchy mouth). Lots of man pain cause his power meant he could not talk - had to use hand signals and writing and I think maybe his wife was a telepath and could convey his orders. But he really really wanted to be able to use words to tells his wife he loved her.

Black Bolt?
The character on the show was Angar the Screamer. I wish I hadn’t looked that up, because it would have been so much cooler if he had been a hippie on the show, with that outfit.
Also in the comics his powers were less knock-everyone-out and more give-everyone-a-bad-LSD-trip, which actually has far greater potential for interesting effects on the protagonists.
According to Wikipedia his voice did not just affect people mentaolly. He could wreak havoc in the physical world and had to train himself never to utter an unplanned sound, even in his sleep.
There's a bit in one of the Marvel games where you visit the Inhuman capital and Deadpool tries to coax Black Bolt into saying "Chimichanga."
But yeah, Black Bolt is leagues beyond Angar in power level.
I imagine we won't see any of the major Inhumans until their movie.
Nice! My boss got us all a 3 month Loot Crate subscription for Christmas. Most of the time it's mildly amusing, but as of this morning I now have my very own SHIELD lanyard. (Non-customized, sadly, but still fun.)
None of my co-workers watch the show, so they were confused.
I hope it's Koenig approved, or you could get into trouble.
Shades of Pulp Fiction.
