The Inhumans (volume 2) is an interesting graphic novel crafted by the wonderful mind of Paul Jenkins. Originally created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, this story gives us a new perspective into the ever present threat against the Inhuman Royal Family and the citizens of Attilan-- the human race. The plot twists in this graphic novel are very well made making this a blast to read.
All the great king Black Bolt ever wanted was to be left alone. He wanted to live in peace and proseperity with his wife Medusa and the other citizens of his city. But no, because of curiosity and the greed of humans, the lives of his Kree citizens are at risk. They are after the advanced technology found within the city of Black Bolt, craving the power and wealth that they could only imagine. Armies start attacking their fortress, but to no avail, due to the powerful forcefield surrounding Attilan. With the forcefield up, the Kree fear little of the enemies outside their gates. But little did they know that the humans have an ace up their sleeves.
I must say that i really enjoyed reading this Graphic Novel. I mean, it has one of my most
favorite superheroes of all time in it. Black Bolt! Man, how cool is it that your most powerful ability just comes from speaking or even whispering. He was able to stop Apolcalypse with just one syllable! WOOOO! Okay. Anyway, back to the book. You get to learn a lot about the process of how these Inhumans get their powers which is very interesting. Plus, there's a lot of controversies and juicy plot twists that do not disappoint. I'm not sure if this is for everyone but if you like cool superpowers, explosions and all out war, this may be for you. But it doesn't stop there, it actually tells a good story about sacrifice, oppression and bravery with the danger of losing everything you hold dear. And Black Bolt is really cool in this one too.I give it 4 tuning forks out of 5
