the Illuminati #3

Oh god it's Bendis time again ! i always find myself suckered into reading his books and then end up completely regretting it,
this is obviously no different.
Anyways in this issue we get a massive swooping retcon about the Beyonder,
and to be frank it doesn't work and i'm not even sure what purpose this story serves,
basically The illuminiti are back in the first Secret Wars era and they find out that the Beyonder is really a Inhuman/mutant hybrid now this is a big great swooping retcon about a character who hasn't really been seen since the 1980's.
and it also basically doesn't make much sense since this means that The Beyonder is more powerfull than his king Black Bolt and that means he doesn't have to listen to him if he doesn't wanna.
now the last time we checked The Beyonder was found out to be part of a sentient cosmic cube, so i'm really not sure how this is all gonna fight in with his prior history and also seems kind of pointless since we haven't seen him in a long long time which sort of makes me wonder if they are going to find a way to bring him back and if so whoever is writing it is going to eventually have some explaining to do !
the other big retcon was that the Professor Xavier considered stopping everyone from fighting by using his powers but he was afraid of what The Beyonder might do in retaliation.
the thing is the professor rarely if ever uses his powers especially in that sort of context so we really don't know if hes capable of doing such thing.
anyways this thing ludacrisly ends by having Namor basically yell at him and tell him to "obey his king" which is kind of hard to do when you're king isn't allowed to talk but i digress.
then he turns into rock and the illumniti leave and then at the very end we find out he teleported himself back to downtown New York and is milling about in the crowds incognito.

so all in all completely pointless and the artwork wasn't really good enough since everyone looked like they all had the same funky looking nose.
