History
The Vox were the next stage of Inhuman evolution called Super-Inhumans and created by the Kree Imperium to serve in their civil war against the Kree Empire. They were designed to have the powers of an Inhuman, but none of the humanity, which the Kree found problematic.[1] The Vox were simply the first in a program the Kree implemented to turn Inhumans into brainwashed agents of theirs.[2] The Vox began a campaign of terror in which they systematically killed thousands of Inhumans, including the Universal Inhuman Court, in order to send a message from the Kree Imperium to the King of the Inhumans of Earth, Black Bolt: join or die.[1]
While the Inhuman Royal Family were in shock over the massacre of the Inhuman Court, the Vox and the Kree launched an attack on the Inhuman city of New Arctilan. The Vox was confronted by Black Bolt's brother, Maximus, who fired an energy weapon at him. The Vox shrugged it off and fired a blast of energy that seemingly destroyed Maximus' right arm.[1]
The Vox told Maximus to give Black Bolt the message to join the Kree Imperium, but Maximus vehemently refused and would have been killed if Lockjaw hadn't appeared. Lockjaw chomped down on the Vox in his jaws before tossing him away; however, the Vox quickly recovered and seemingly killed both Maximus and Lockjaw with energy blasts,[1] though he had actually teleported the pair to an unknown location where they too were converted into agents of the Kree.[2]
When Karnak arrived on Hala and stated that the Inhumans wouldn't surrender, the Vox was brought in by the Kree to subdue him. Then Black Bolt appeared to wipe out the Kree, but before Black Bolt could destroy the Vox with his voice, the Vox teleported behind him and slit his throat with a dagger.[3]
During the Inhuman Royal Family's final assault on the Kree, the Vox sent an army of brainwashed Inhumans to confront Black Bolt as he entered the location responsible for maintaining the Kree's control over the brainwashed Inhumans. Black Bolt was forced to utilize his powerful voice to wipe out everyone there in order to stop the Kree's plans, and the Vox and his Kree masters were eventually forced to retreat.[4]
It is unknown what happened to the Vox following the merger of the Kree Imperium with the Skrull Empire, though Vox Supreme appeared to have betrayed the Imperium after merging with the Supreme Intelligence.[5]
