Marvel is slowly revealing the characters that will make up the focus of their new series The Uncanny Inhumans. So far, none of the reveals should be surprising as they are also the focus on the current series featuring the Inhumans, Inhuman.
This April, the silent Inhuman king rises from the ashes. Thought you knew Black Bolt? Think again! Prepare for Uncanny Inhumans #0 – the epic prelude to a brand new ongoing series from the chart-topping Death of Wolverine creative team of Charles Soule and Steve McNiven!
The stoic Inhuman king, able to level mountains with a whisper has struck out on his own – seemingly leaving his Queen and his very race to fend for themselves. But is that the whole story? Now, follow his adventures as he embarks on a new mission. A lone wolf and a king without a throne, Black Bolts endeavors will send him on a direct collision course with one of the Avengers’ greatest foes – Kang the Conqueror! With the mastery of time at his very fingertips, Kang will bend the entire 20,000 years of Inhuman history to his own vile ends.
With Kang cut loose, the silent sentinel of the Inhuman Nation is all that stands in his way. Will the Inhuman king rise in the face of growing threats to his people? Or will he fall? Find out when the secrets of Black Bolt’s journey comes to light!

It shouldn’t be a surprise that Marvel is going to push hard for the Inhumans. With their higher profile in Marvel’s television and upcoming 2018 movie, the company is launching a new series featuring the classic characters. April will see Uncanny Inhumans written by Charles Soule and art by Steve McNiven. The series will be more of a “street-level approach” to the characters where as Inhuman, also written by Soule, is more of an epic.
Soule last collaborated with Steve McNiven on last year’s Death of Wolverine. As you can see by the released image, the series will feature Black Bolt who is currently missing in the Inhuman series. Black Bolt has revealed himself in Avengers and New Avengers which are both eight months ahead in the Marvel comic universe timeline.
The initial villain will be the time-traveling Avengers nemesis Kang the Conquerer.
This is the third Marvel series to feature the “Uncanny” tag, as it joins Uncanny Avengers and Uncanny X-Men.
