Ryan Stegman and Richard Isanove create beautiful art here: Medusa's stylish dress and piercing green eyes are simply breathtaking. She owns each panel she's in. Iso and Reader are interesting characters: Reader for his flexible morals and his loyalty to Iso; Iso for her fascinating power set and the adaptability and learning curve that she's suddenly thrust into.

This series continues to be an unheralded standout for Marvel, one that many people aren't talking about, but one that people should be, especially with a new focus on the Inhumans companywide. This entire issue was engaging and fun, and never in a superficial way. Everything that was here had its place, and the issue flowed so smoothly that the somewhat surprise ending came all too soon.

This is fairly good, but it could also be a bit better I think. Some great moments here, but the execution is slightly lacking. Read Full Review
Charles Soule essentially sweeps Inhuman's AXIS offshoot under the rug, with only Medusa's arc maintaining any real sense of continuity. What's there is solid enough in terms of development, but it feels so forced comparatively that many of her story beats fall short. Read Full Review
Inhuman again throws a lot of stuff at us and it halfways feels like we're getting the cliffsnotes version of the series rather than the actual series. I really liked the time with Medusa, in her Madison Queen persona, as we feel like we're getting to see the real character at long last. But it's all done from the side without a deep look at her and what she's really saying. Reader and Iso's storyline is stock fight and flight material that doesn't really give us a lot to chew on and it just feels kind of schlocky in some ways that I can't quite put my finger on. Most of it just comes down to the fact that it's done in such a quick hit fashion without any depth or exploration to it that it's all just so superficial and that's keeping me from really connecting with it at this point anymore.

Nice to see the two main stories converge, although Stegman's drawing of Medusa took a major step back from the axis tie-ins.
I'm getting frustrated not understanding the "reading dots"
