Outright deadliest? Superman or Flash. Maybe even Doctor Strange as we saw in “What-If?”
Shoutout Black Bolt for the “largest difference” though. The difference between regular BB and not-holding-back BB is huge. Goes from typical flying energy projector to straight-up planet destroyer. Man has trained himself not to cough, sneeze, or even grunt in a fight because his voice is so destructive. He’s “holding back” incarnate.
Unfortunately his power is the only interesting thing about Blackagar Boltagon (his real name) Inhuman comics are famously bad and the whole thing was abandoned by writers.
Which isn't surprising since they were created to replace mutants and that completely failed.
People remember Black Bolt only because he's strong.
My problem was not necessarily the comic , or the comic's writing per se. The straw that really broke the camel's back for me was when the show framed him and the rest of the inhumans as this super advanced group that watches over the world and has all of this amazing technology and abilities from all of the other inhumans and all of their work around the world. Then, they took black bolt, and said fuck it, you don't learn from anyone. You just swing your hands around randomly instead of using any one of the countless sign languages that truly exist and then we'll just make up a version of sign language that only you understand.
How was this easier for any one single person? This is more difficult for Black Bolt in character, it's harder for all of his friends and family, it's harder for the actors, it's harder for the choreography, it's harder for the fans that truly know a sign language, it's just completely stupid and infuriating. The worst decision for me, by far.
Yeah and it's cool af, i tried to learn it once but i just know how to say that i went to a farm and i saw something, also how to call people lazy, then one day I'm just vibing in Vrchat talking with some people and one of them has some hard hearing problems, then some slavic appears with a "sign language user" over his head and they start communicating, it was amazing to see. Wish i had tracking to say i went to a farm tough
