I'm not sure offhand, how Gorgon of the Inhumans or Stompa of the Female Furies are supposed to do what they do—are only their feet super-strong? I wanted to go a different tack…have Footfall's power to amplify sounds or vibrations produced by his body.

As for how he lost his tongue—look, would YOU want him talking? It was almost self-defense—albeit a grisly one—wherever he was raised.

We'll see more of Footfall, but the next couple of pages will take us to a side-tangent, which is a set-up for the main opponent this story.

Thunderous is like a mob enforcer in the Sopranoes or the Godfather—in some ways a nice guy, a good friend to have, unless he's ordered to kill you. Then, with regret—he'll squash you like a bug.
