Finished reading Inhumans: Attilan Rising, tying into Marvel's Secret Wars event writer Charles Soule crafts the story centred around the Inhumans of the Manhattan domain showing not only how Battleworld affects the Inhuman community but also showing how different these counterparts are to the main Marvel Universe versions. The book opens up with a small group of rebels from the Voice Unheard led by a 1930's version of Ghost Rider called G-Man in the Greenland domain hoping to use a serum that gives Hulks their minds back. Their presence is quickly known by a group of Thors who take G-Man to the Queen of the Inhumans and regent of the Manhattan domain Medusa, for questioning as Doctor Doom tasks her with the mission of finding the leader of this resistance and bringing it to an end. After only getting little information from G-Man before his head exploded when an Inhuman phsyisc digs into his mind Medusa sends the chief of her guard, Auran, to the Quiet Room who's owner Black Bolt turns out to be leader of the Voice Unheard. Overall this was a great book as it not only shows how the events of Secret Wars effects the Inhumans but also shows how multiple domains of Battleworld are run and different to others. The character differences of well known Inhumans are fascinating from an older Ms Marvel who is one of Medusa's top agents while Black Bolt has no powers allowing for him to have a large amount of dialogue that fits the characteristics of the character brilliantly and makes him very charismatic. The artwork by John Timms is great as the art style works perfectly well for different domains and the people of Battleworld. 8/10.
