Article Summary
Glob Herman evolves from peaceful mutant to vengeful enforcer in the Age of Revelation timeline.
Driven by a pivotal insult and tragedy, Glob arms himself for battle against fellow mutants.
The X-Virus and Revelation’s rise shatter Glob’s quiet life, pushing him toward violence.
Under Frank Castle’s tutelage, Glob masters weaponry and embraces his new hardened identity.
In the X-Men Age Of Revelation, Herman Glob has had quite the transformation. The peace-loving mutant created by Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely, a walking, see-through gelatinous blob around his still present skeleton, has had quite the transformation X years into the future.
Now wearing not just clothes but full-form armour.
And suddenly, quite handy with armaments…
… and their use against other mutants.
Even young ones…
…when he’s allowed to, that is.
But how did he get that way? Today sees the new X-Men: Age of Revelation Infinity Comic #7 by Alex Paknadel and Edoardo Audino, and it takes us back a mere three years into the Age of Revelation, the X-Virus having struck, killing humans and changing some into mutants, and changing other mutants further. And Doug Ramsey as Revelation, the heir of Apocalypse, is responsible for it all. And Glob has returned to the land, working a vineyard, and living the good life.
But there is trouble in this paradise. And Radian is here to lift the lid. Even though Glob doesn’t have lids.
And then the Omega Kids come to town, courtesy of Quentin Quire, and they do some very bad things.
