'''Gorgon''' is a male comic character who features in [[Marvel Comics]]. ==Biography== ===Origin=== '''Gorgon Petragon''' Many years ago, the young royal joined his cousin Black Bolt in confronting the [[Unspoken (Marvel)|King of Attilan]] over the removal of the '''Slave Engine'''. Gorgon believed the King's actions to be traitorous and made the Inhumans weak and vulnerable to the dangers around them. Thus, a coup occurred against the King who effortlessly defeated the young royals including Gorgon except for Black Bolt who managed to depose the monarch. The former ruler was then taken outside Attilan where his name was stricken from the records and he was exiled from the city. (Mighty Avengers v1 #27) ===Inhumans=== ===Inhumanity=== He was by Queen Medusa's side as the Inhuman survivors created '''New Attilan''' at the Hudson River where they looked to rebuild their fallen kingdom.

The boy was among the many descendants of Inhumans that recently had their powers awakened after being exposed to the Terrigen Cloud.
