Story continued from INHUMAN SPECIAL #1
Captain America (Sam Wilson) is drawn
toward the city floating high over Manhattan and arrives just in time
to catch a plummeting Spider-Man. Cap delivers Spidey to the ledge
where the four rookie Inhumans await; Cap is briefed and tasked with
devising a plan of attack....
Inside, Medusa is doing battle with Red
Raven's minions when Cap, Spidey and the kids join in. Cap takes on
the Raven personally, with the villain accusing Sam of being an
impostor since he worked alongside the original Captain America
during the war. Gorgon, and Triton awaken and begin to fight but
Medusa has to warn them not to kill any of their opponents. Sam feels
he is not living up to the standard set by Steve Rogers, and so plays
to his strengths (he can fly) so he leads Red Raven out into the sky
and summons a flock of birds to attack the villains. After Red Raven
is subdued, Medusa explains the situation; Cap and Spidey talk to him
and persuade him to drop his plans to destroy New Attilan. Problem:
the city engines are offline, damaged in the battle, and the city is
dropping anyway. Rookies Flint and Iso work together to move the city
so that it crashes into the Hudson River and Spidey hails them as
heroes....
Later, Medusa visits Red Raven in the
hospital and promises that her scientists will find a way to reverse
the Terrigen mutation affecting his people. The elderly, powerless
Steve Rogers stops by to encourage his former ally. Spidey joins
Medusa on the roof where they share a burrito and he tells her about
Gwen. The lesson is that we are not the sum of our failures, we have to see who we are. Spidey flirts with her but she tells him she is married and
he apologizes. Still, she is happy to talk to someone—and eat a
burrito.
