Definitely not a must-read, but it wasn't bad.
At best, it's a cute story with Spider-man, Medusa, & some Inhuman kids. At worst, a throw away story with Sam-as-Cap, & some old bird-dude from back in the day that only a handful of fans remember.
*eyeballs Paul*
So what's it about?
Um...yeah.
It's kind of your standard generic superhero story.
Bad Guys attack, Good Guys unite, fisticuffs ensue, some near-death stuff happens, someone breaks out a backstory, everyone hugs it out, a lesson is learned, and friendships are forged.
Or something like that...
Should you read it?
Ehhhhh. Try you library, or borrow it from a friend, if you can. I mean, unless you've just been dying to read a team-up with all of these guys in it?

(Minor spoilsies ahead.)
A floating bird city appears above Manhattan to destroy New Attilan. Surprising how populated New York is in the Marvel Universe with so much destructive superhero bullshit happening there on a regular basis!
Inhuman Error is a three-part crossover between The Amazing Spider-Man, Inhuman, and All-New Captain America and it’s pretty bad! Despite his Groot miniseries being the business, Jeff Loveness can’t infuse the same charm or imagination into three of the (arguably) worst Marvel ongoings at the moment.
The NuHumans are as bland and uninteresting as ever, Spidey is Spidey and Sam Wilson is still terrible as the new Falcon-Cap. The villain, Red Raven (a long-forgotten Golden Age character), has this stupidly convenient device where he presses a button on his wrist and a pink force-field appears around random people and teleports them away!
As generic as the storyline seems, what really cheesed me off was how badly the conflict was resolved. All it literally takes is for Red Raven to tell Medusa his problem and for her to agree to help him fix it. That’s all he had to do to begin with - none of the fighting was necessary! So mind-numbingly dumb. It’s the standard contrived superhero story. It’s also amazing that Marvel are still milking this Terrigen Mist crap YEARS after Black Bolt detonated the bomb in Infinity – when the fuck will it dissipate?!!?
The art isn’t anything special either. For some reason Ryan Lee gives Spidey this weirdly thin and scrawny neck – it looked like a bent old man cosplaying as Spidey!

A very solid story written by an author I wasn't really familiar with. They've picked three books that occur in NYC for the story to cross through those aliens. Loveness gets the characterization right. Spider-man is written as funny but misunderstood. I like the mentor role he takes on with the new Inhumans. Captain America seems superfluous to the story.

This volume collects the three-part story that ran through the Spider-Man, Inhumans and Captain America annuals this year.
It was OK. My enjoyment was hindered somewhat by my complete lack of interest in the Nu-Human characters (why they needed to call these new Inhumans something different and not just call them Inhumans is beyond me). Maybe someday these characters will find a spot in my affections but it hasn't happened yet.
The other thing stopping me giving this book a higher mark is the fact that they are STILL having Sam Wilson be all teenage angsty about being able to live up to Steve Rogers' legacy. I appreciate that being the new Captain America must be a little daunting but they've got Sam acting like he's a rookie superhero, not just a rookie Cap. Sam's been doing his Falcon bit since 1969, fer chrissakes! He's a veteran of the superhero world, Marvel; stop writing him like he's completely wet behind the ears!
These two issues aside, I did quite enjoy this tale. I'm a bit of a Golden Age nut, so it was nice to see the original Red Raven . The final scenes in the Captain America part of the story were pretty nice too.

Jeff Loveness is great at comics. His Groot miniseries was phenomenal, his ongoing Nova series has been great so far, and now I've read this crossover between Spider-Man, Sam Wilson Cap and Inhumans, and it is one the best Marvel crossovers in the past several years.
On the surface, it is a pretty generic Marvel setup: there is a bad guy and his minions, they attack the city, Spidey teams up with Inhumans and Cap to save the day. But the way it's written is absolutely delightful!
First of all, Jeff Loveness writes an absolutely perfect Spider-Man. I wish he would write an ongoing Spidey series — get on with it, Marvel! Slott's dreadful reign over the character has overstayed its welcome years ago. Loveness' Spidey is funny, smart, insecure, troubled by his past, but he lives with it. He IS the Spider-Man as he is supposed to be.
Also, the villain. It's not just a dumbass bad guy who is just evil for the sake of evil, this guy has a reason to be mad. The ending of the comic is especially great at showing just how much depth Loveness has managed to pack in a character that seemed so basic.
And did I mention that the Inhumans and Sam Wilson aren't terrible in this book? Now that's an achievement!
The artwork in this comic is OK. It's a three-issue crossover, and every issue is drawn by a different artist, so it doesn't look consistent, but it gets the job done.
Overall, I would highly recommend this comic to any Marvel fan, especially to those who want a good Spider-Man comic.

Solid little story. Unbeknownst to her, Black Bolt releasing the terrigen mist hurt this group of bird people who were a different kind of Inhuman. One of their members comes at Medusa threatening to destroy New Attilan in retaliation. We see Spidey, All new Cap, and a few young Inhumans team up to save the day. Nothing out of this world here but it was decent. Spider-Man had some funny banter in this one.

See, this is how you're supposed to do a TPB. You collect the issues that all relate to the central story and present it in a linear format that the reader can follow without having to stop and go get other TPBs to figure out just what the heck is going on!
Somebody forward a copy of this to the staff at DC and tell them to use it as an example.
Having said that, the story side of things is why this only reached 3 stars, and that was generous. I love the character of Spider-Man. A geek suddenly blessed with amazing powers who charges into battle nervously spouting off one-liners? What's not to love? It would have been great if that was how Spider-Man had been presented here but instead we get a schmuck who shouldn't be allowed to cross a road without somebody holding his hands. He's supposed to be a veteran hero but here he's barely more than dummy-in-distress who's whole purpose seems to be setting up other heroes for a spectacular rescue. His witty banter is reduced to geeked out fanboy worship of the other heroes in the story. They could have put in some 3rd tier hero and it would have been a better story.

I had no expectations of this series but it ended up being a really fun series. Jeff Loveness writes a really fun Spider-Man with a healthy mix of being a complete idiot and being a wise mentor. The way he bounces off the nuhumans, and the stuffy royal family of the Inhumans, is great, along with newly-Captained Sam Wilson they make a fun cast of random characters (who all just so happen to live in New York). I wish they had a consistent art team throughout, all of the artists are fantastic but there's no real reason not to have it all be one team. Ah well, still a fun time.

Featuring the Inhumans, Spider-Man, and Sam Wilson Captain America, "Inhuman Error" is a narrative about the clashing of international political bodies and the personal reasons underlying international conflict.
After Blackbolt unleashed the terrigen cloud, political situations and individual bodies changed, transforming the interactions between people and their relationships to their own bodies. "Inhuman Error" examines the widespread effect of this action, constructing a post-transformation world in which the certainties of the past are unstable.
Everything is changeable whether it is politics or personal relationships and the team of Loveness, Pizzari, Lee, and Morgan illustrate that the political and personal aren't so divorced from one another as we think and that the personal issues of leaders can influence the experiences of their whole populations.
This is also a coming-of-age or coming-into-power narrative for some of the young, newly transformed Inhumans who encounter Spider-Man and Captain America and are forced to question how much their inhuman identity may relate to ideas of ethnicity and to notions of superheroism. They have to explore how their nee abilities mean a new political affiliation and open up the possibility for them to consider themselves superheroes.

This was surprisingly good. Red Raven returns as a sort of villain, and tangles with Spiderman, The Inhumans and Sam Wilson Captain America. The art was nice especially since it was a little different style than usual, and Spiderman was hilarious. I haven't read any Spiderman in a while so I'm not sure what's going on with him now, but his sense of humor here was spot on.
Overall this was a good, straight forward story with good art. It was a bit old school in its simplicity, which I enjoyed after so many convoluted comic plot lines that are the norm lately.

3.5 really
Read
March 31, 2016One of those occasional Marvel things where three titles with no particular connection get specials or annuals by the same (usually new-ish) writer which together form a barely-publicised mini-crossover. I can't believe they sell particularly well, but sometimes (particularly Mike Costa's Arms of the Octopus) they're a lot of fun. And so's this one, intermittently. The overall plot is a nonsense which can't entirely be excused by pointing out its own holes, the new Inhumans still feel like placeholders rather than characters, and Spidey seems very much like an earlier, schmuckier version of the character rather than the current Slott-rebuilt model of Peter Parker. But unlike a lot of writers, Loveness gives Spidey (and, to a lesser extent, the rest of the cast) lines which are really funny rather than just the shape of funny lines, while also fitting in some fairly touching bits of character work. Inessential, but potentially promising.

A floating island populated by avian monsters appears in the sky over New York and began an attack against New Attilan, led by the former superhero Red Raven.
Whilst Medusa tries to reason with Raven, Spider-Man must rally a group of young Inhumans long enough for the cavalry to arrive, in the form of Sam Wilson, the new Captain America.
There was so very much to dislike about this book; from the uneven art, to the return of a Golden Age hero that literally no-one cares about, the fact that Sam is little more than a third-act cameo, to the focus on the Inhumans; Marvel's sad attempt to disenfranchise the X-Men so they could get the movie rights back. Honestly, almost all of the constituent parts of this story are terrible on paper.
However, there was one consistently good element that not only tied the whole book together but also elevated it to the point that I actually rather liked it overall.
That element was Spider-Man.
We get some great irreverent and slightly meta humour here from the Wall-Crawler, be it his fantasies about how disastrously things would go if he asked a girl out, to the scene where he gets introduced to the young Inhumans and immediately says what we're all thinking; "Okay. I've already forgotten your names, but hey, welcome to the club".
But more than just the comedy, Spidey provides the heart to this tale, offering Medusa help when she needs it, acting as a mentor to the young Inhumans and being super-supportive of Sam's relatively new role as Captain America.
Overall, a book which is far greater than the some of its parts due to some pitch-perfect writing of Spider-Man.

This was weirdly good (for what it was). The plot is concise, but effective, and focuses on an Inhuman from an offshoot colony who feels he’s been scorned by Black Bolt and his ilk. Featuring Spider-Man, Medusa, and Captain America (Sam Wilson edition), this seemingly random grouping of characters combine to stop a tragedy born from tragedy. The art is different each issue, but quirky and fun in each. Short as his development was, the “bad guy” is a rather sympathetic figure, and each of our heroes exhibit their best in trying to rehabilitate him. A short and cute read with a lil punch, worth a few minutes of time.

Inhuman Error is the team-up story of Spider-Man, the Inhumans, and Captain American (Sam) as they stop a threat to NYC. These types of stories remind me of when Marvel used to do similar team-ups in their annuals. They usually didn't matter and where only as good as the creators involved and that's the case here. Author, Jeff Loveness has a really good ability to write Spidey well as his humor is solid. Sadly, that's where the praise ends. The story's crux is how history is ignored and that's what Loveness does as the characters acted so out of character. There were plot holes aplenty. The art in the entire book was subpar for the most part. Overall, a few laughs and that's it.

This was entertaining. And felt more relevant than most miniseries. The old superhero Red Raven lives with a bunch of winged Inhumans who end up negatively affected by the Terrigen cloud. So he seeks revenge on the Inhumans in New York.
The writing was good. The banter was very good. The art in each issue is by a different artist. The styles were all a little quirky by superhero standards, but I liked it.

I was surprised this book existed and once I started reading I suppose its purpose then made sense. It's largely a Spider-Man book with a ridiculously quippy Peter who teams up with the new Inhumans kids and the new (Falcon) Captain America in a one-off thing that is clearly more an effort to promote those other titles. So the story is a little light but feels more like an attempt at a showcase.
Decent but nothing amazing.

Nice work from three new artists and a writer new to me.
Also, this is pretty much the only story featuring the Golden Age superhero Red Raven since the Liberty Legion forty years back, and an issue of Sub-Mariner circa 1969. So, there's that. Spoiler alert: he's squirrely, and, um, birdlike here.
Recommended.

This was unexpected. I haven't enjoyed Spider-Man this much in ages! All the banter and all his wisdom put together. I was beautiful.
On top of that, it was a fun read. And the whole thing was put together in just 3 issues. Folks, it can be done.
I'll even forgive the not-so-beautiful art of the Inhumans Special book.

Well, this was a random and delightful find. The story is really fun and well-written. Loveness taps into Spider-Man wonderfully. It's a great team-up story. And Spider-Man tries to flirt with Medusa, which was funny. The art worked well, and the arial adventure looked great.

Good dialogue and decent story. Fans of the recent movies will like how this has Spider-Man and the new Captain America.

Way better than I was expecting! Decent story that brings back a golden age Marvel hero. 3 issues and 3 artists, but all great and unique!

NEGATIVE 1 STAR - In the grand tradition of "The Arms Of The Octopus" and "Spider-Man & The X-Men" MARVEL delivers another clunky cross-over loaded with OOC moments and willfully childish humor... Perhaps had you never read any Spidy, Falcon or Inhumans stories and were also 10 years old, this book might be a good time... and had it been labeled as a MARVEL AGE book (if anyone even remembers when MARVEL published books just for the young reader) it might have been understandable, at least. But this is a REAL fictional adventure... which in the end, is best forgotten.
I could talk about the story, which has a Batman villain flavor to it, but that's all it has... not even the epic tragedy which make characters like Killer Croc readable and don't get me started on the trash dialogue that gets forced out of the mouths of some of our favorite characters... it will just make us both very sad. As for the art in the book, all three artist (who do some fine work here) are unfortunately the wrong flavor for this mainstream exploitative cash-grab of a book.
RECOMMENDED For your tiny child to carry around in tatters but for NO ONE to read!

Fundamentally, this was a story about a very, very wisecracking Spider-Man. Captain America shows up. The Inhumans from the Inhumans show up (and remind us they're more of a template than characters). All-New Captain America makes a save.
But I don't recall a book so loaded with Spider-patter.
This is confusing because (1) it seems to confuse Spider-Man with Deadpool, (2) It was published at roughly a time when the characterization of Spider-Man did not make sense (that is, after Worldwide), and (3) It actually became irritating to me the reader rather than to the villain.
Some balance would have solved this.

Whilst not my favourite artistic renditions- the more modernised don’t do it for this traditionalist, the story works well. Spider-Man, the Inhumans old and fledgling and the New Captain America all are off balance as they meet a hurt Red Raven. Hope is restored and Spidey tries to hit on Medusa before becoming a bombastic preacher akin to Deadpool over a breakfast burrito.
On the re-read: The disappointment of the combination of authors is that there is inconsistencies in the depictions of a conglomeration of superheroes old and new. My old head does not like the switching of gears. This party edition also, like a power dating meeting barely introduces the newbies, the oldies and allows a smart alec Spider-Man to motor mouth his way throughout and in particular, act all awkwardly around the stunning Queen of the Inhumans, Medusa.

This was a reasonably good story that crossed over three unrelated properties and told a fun story. Unfortunately, it hit upon a few different pet peeves of mine, which detracted a bit from my enjoyment. The characterizations of all of the characters felt a little off, but in particular, Spider-Man seemed like a completely different character. It also featured a generally disused character, the Red Raven, who had some significant retconning to add an Inhuman element to his scanty backstory, as well as giving him a rather closer relationship to Captain America than he ever possessed. Normally, I would like bringing in an obscure character, but this felt a bit forced. Overall, this was fun, but felt a bit off.

A fun team up comic where we get to watch Spider-man, Medusa and the Inhumans and Captain America team up to correct a mistake caused by the Terrigen bomb. All three issues were well done, and the narration shifts were perfectly executed. The art is consistent across the issues which helps unify the storylines and make it feel like a cohesive comic. The first page of the Captain America issue is a beautiful piece of work, and many of the other pages have striking panel design as well. I'm happy that the writers worked to make the comic cohesive, and I thought that the story flowed seamlessly. Overall, a very successful team up that works perfectly as one unit and does a good job suiting the different characters involved.

3.5. Honestly, I only took this one home because it showed up at the library as a standing order, and since we call number our graphics by series title (for manga) or character name (for superheroes and other well-known characters) I didn't have a clue how to call number it. I ended up enjoying it pretty well; Spidey's banter got on my nerves a little bit but he had a good moment at the end. Not surprisingly, my favorite was the Cap storyline, with Sam Wilson as Cap and this little tidbit at the end starring Steve Rogers voicing his approval of Sam's work as the new Captain America. Not a bad afternoon jaunt. And the call number? GN Inhumans.
