Inhumans: Once & Future Kings #5 - "Emancipation"

[laughing_tree]

Elisha the Alpha Primitive could be described as your typical liberal post-grad student—the kind that waits on line in the rain for the newest iPhone. He is mostly a product of his experience—the oppression suffered by the Alpha Primitives, a servant caste of the Inhumans. An Inhuman taught Elisha to read and got imprisoned for it. Now enlightened, and with postgrad degrees from M.I.T., Elisha remains a second or even third-class citizen due to his genetic disposition—which casts a pall upon the more “enlightened” Inhuman society. His character theme is, therefore, about discrimination—especially among liberal free thinkers such as the Inhumans. -- Christopher J. Priest
