Uncanny Inhumans: Time Clash Review
Finished reading Uncanny Inhumans: Time Clash, renewing Marvel's Inhumans series post Secret Wars as writer Charles Soule continues his run with the Inhumans as they face a threat from the time traveling villain, Kang the Conqueror. The book opens up in Rio as a group of bandits who have been hired to retrieve Inhuman cocoons as Black Bolt intervenes and stoping the group as he takes a sample of the Terrigen mist that he later uses on his son Ahura who has been living with Kang since the events of Infinity, and with the threat of the incursions that lead to the events of Secret Wars Black Bolt makes a deal with Kang to take Ahura to ancient Attilan to keep him safe form the end of the multiverse. Months later after the events of Secret Wars Black Bolt along with Triton and Reader have tried and failed to retrieve Ahura form Kang, which leads to Black Bolt going to his estranged wife and queen of the Inhumans, Medusa who is currently in a relationship with the Human Touch. In hope to find a way to successfully retrieve their son, only for Beast to lucky notice that Inhumans are beginning to disappear due to Kang attempt to rid the throughout time. Overall this was a great book as it's a story that has incredibly high stakes with writer Charles Soule being able to turn this into an extremely and intriguing personal story. The art form artist Steve McNiven is great as each character's designs and powers are brought to life very well along with the characters emotions also being draw extremely well which makes these moments even more impactful. Additionally the short stories within the book are great as not only are they fairly standalone but also do a great job in caching up with characters over the time jump from Secret Wars. 8/10.
