Inhuman #1 is the next step in the evolution of Marvel’s most intriguing family.

 

Black Bolt and Medusa were the King and Queen of a hidden race descended from humans genetically altered by the Kree.

 

Black Bolt is missing – presumed dead. The Kingdom fell. The Inhumans are exposed to the world. A genetic bomb triggered Inhumanity among thousands or perhaps millions of human beings.

 

The drama centers squarely on Medusa as writer Charles Soule said in a recent

Marvel liveblog:

 

“Medusa has turned out to be a fascinating character to write. She’s a queen in exile, removed from her power base. She can stand on her own, but having Black Bolt there didn’t hurt. Attilan blew up and there are new threats. She’s trying to pull together the pieces, locate her husband and find out why he did this, deal with emerging threats from new Inhumans and existing factions–she’s got a lot on her plate.”

Black Bolt and Medusa are one of Marvel’s longest running power couples. The King made the ultimate sacrifice to stop Thanos in Infinity.

 

But Black Bolt was working with Maximus the Mad in a strange alliance of old enemies.

 

“Black Bolt rarely explains anything, and if he does, you don’t want to be anywhere near him. The idea that we’ll have a series called Inhuman and not address Black Bolt and what he’s done would be crazy, but we’ll let the mystery spin out a bit before we get to it.”

 

“We want to amplify these characters as super heroes, but also as characters you can relate to. Medusa is a warrior queen, a woman dealing with a huge amount of loss and expectations by kicking some ass. Charles and Soule are really playing with her power set and having her unload. I think people underestimate her” added Editor Nick Lowe.

 

Inhuman #1 arrives today.
