Royals continues to be a strong book which I continue to challenge is Marvels dark horse. El Ewing makes the smart decision to remove them the same setting of all other characters despite all the efforts to interweave them into prominence over the past few years and send them off and isolate them to prove its ability to stand alone without the presence of other Marvel mainstays. He goes further and uses this unique opportunity to redefine the nature of the Inhuman existence by exploring their origin and by all accounts introducing a new and fascinating threat that will soon have greater influence beyond just the Inhumans but substantial impact on the Marvel universe and many stories in the future.

Altogether, not a bad issue. We get further information on the skyspears and an interesting twist involving the Kree. The plot, while at a slow pace seems to be leading to a bigger payoff. Still, some of the art is a bit inconsistent, and there's a couple panels of cringe-worthy dialogue. Decent to good, but not great.
