I was intregued by a recent report that suggested that since Marvel didn't hold the movie rights to X-Men that they would be developing the Inhumans as a sort of replacement in that movie universe.
The recent events surrounding Infinity seem to suggest they are trying to prop up the Inhumans in the 616 as well. Infinity was kind of a mess, but the end goal seemed to be to boost the visibility and importance of the Inhumans. The resulting Inhumanity one-shot seems to support that and further that idea. If you didn't read it:
I kind of like the idea; I've always liked the Inhuman characters and backstory and I'd be interested to see if marvel can use them in a similar role to the X-Men without falling into the same problems that the X-Men have as characters and storylines.
Has Marvel announced or hinted at potential changes or extra exposure or integration for the Inhumans?

the idea is that there are Inhumans who don't even know they are Inhumans due to some split in the kingdom ages ago and due to Black Bolt's release of the Terrigan Mists they suddenly transform.
